I voted OTHER because when in therapy, I always hold back on certain things. I filter. Why? Because I've never felt total trust in any relationship. I don't think it has anything to do with concern or worry about manipulating the T. I just feel really really strongly that I like my privacy on issues. I don't put the blame on the T, it's just my make-up.

I do feel, however, from my years around many Ts and psychiatrists, that when they are frustrated or struggling with a client that they often chalk it up to "manipulation" rather than viewing it as "Hmmmm something's going on in our relationship. Makes me curious. I need to think about, examine my part/role in this road block." What I believe is happening is that it's waaaaaaay too easy for people to get licensed in the professions of psychiatry and psychology and start seeing clients.
