I see this term used a bit on here.

I wasn't sold anything.

I was given a number because I was at the bottom of a pit.

I rang. I agreed an initial consultation.

We talked. I wasn't sold anything. No mention of super outcomes. How could there be? No one knows what changes an individual will go through.

I think T's response in the beginning when I was expecting immediate results was "wait and see". She had never promised anything.

I had no expectations.

I didn't want anything apart from the pain to stop.

What is being sold? Where is it being sold?

For me therapy has always been about helping me to think about what was always on the periphery of my awareness.

It neve was about promising me this or that. Never was about promising more satisfying relationships. Winning the lotto. Becoming prime minster.

Where is this selling Happening?
