Perna -
I agree. I'm in your category. I share a lot (more than average) about the fact that I'm in therapy. I don't talk about my therapy per se with people at work, but they know I go and why I'm late some days. I talk about it like it's a normal thing to do because it is and should be. All anyone has to do is open a phone book to "psychologists" and there are thousands listed. Someone has to be seeing all these people!

So in my workplace and of course home, people do feel comfortable coming to me asking me about therapy. By that I mean, sometimes it has opened the door for someone else seeking help.

I would tell my friend that it is a difficult relationship to understand unless one is in therapy themselves. And leave it at that.
