I have talked to a few people that bragged because after just a few months of therapy their T's told them how well they were doing and suggested they really didn't need to continue,unless they wanted to.They also weren't diagnosed with a MI,weren't referred anywhere else,no medication suggested or prescribed,etc.So they brag about it,claiming they're 'normal', although they admit they faked it.

I don't understand the point of going if a person is going to do that.

So my question is,are you real in therapy?I don't mean real as in completely opening up right away,I'm talking about showing your real,true unedited self,without putting on an act or behaving in a way that would make it seem like you don't have any issues or problems.

I was my true authentic self.It may have taken me a few years to start talking about my traumas but my behavior,the way I speak,it was all who I am,flaws and all.
