I only have 2 closer friends that know about me going to counseling. And they both live kind of far from me, so we don't really talk all that much, and it's mostly on the phone. I don't really talk about therapy unless they ask but sometimes I feel like I'm making them feel like they're not good enough friends because I talk to someone else. Or if I say what the problem is they would tell me that they could tell me the same thing and I don't have to pay them. So I kind of feel weak for going, especially since they went through worse stuff then me.

I'm just having hard time now and it's difficult for me to explain that it's a lot different talking to a therapist than talking to a friend. And there's things I don't want to talk to my friend about because it's too therapy stuff. My T has really good insights too. And in a way it's good that he is not my friend because whatever I tell him stays there and he will just go about his day afterwards.

Anyway,!i was just curious if and what do you say to people around you about your therapy and how do they react?
