Actually, it does not make sense to me. If you are not presenting yourself as you are (whether it is "overly-dependent" or something else) and it is one of the main patterns that occurs to you then you are just keeping relevant material out of therapy room. And how can you work on your problems in therapy if you keep significant parts of yourself out of it? Then you would come into these forums and talk about your overly dependent feelings (because if they have to come, you can't escape them anyway) but are unable to work with them therapeutically because you don't want to be "over-dependent" on your therapist. I just can't see the point of such fake therapy.
Thanks for this!
