Who knows you're in therapy?
- Family: My brother (entirely coz I was trying to get him to go too).
- Others: Friends know -- I neither hide nor talk about it specifically. So, if it comes up naturally, I'll mention it.
How did they feel about you starting therapy?
- A lot of my (immigrant) friends teased me that I'd now turned properly "American" (stereotype of thinking a lot about oneself etc

). I basically ignored it (they're all with families / kids / strong support networks and so on).
Brother didn't have any comments about it (per usual).
Do they still feel that way now or have things changed?
- No one really has a strong opinion about my going to therapy. So, I guess it's really not relevant.
Is there anyone really close to you that doesn't know you're in therapy or that you don't discuss it with?
- Nope
How much do you discuss your treatment with your people?
- With one close friend, a fair bit because she's really seen me struggle with my family and is incredibly protective of me when they pull their usual crap. So, I'll sometimes tell her what I'm trying to do in therapy. With everyone else, not so much.
