It just feels kind of weird to know that I'm being used as a case study in a psych talk. It doesn't really bother me

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">SplitImage, I'm glad you don't feel bothered by this. I wonder, if a client does not want their T to use them as an anonymous case study, can they tell the T not to do it, and the T has to acquiesce? If I felt uncomfortable, I think I would speak to my T about it, and either feel reassured by what he said or if I wasn't, ask him not to use me in that way anymore. I would hope he would agree if I asked him to do this.

My T did mention once using a phrase I had used to title a chapter in a book he might write. He said quickly after mentioning that, that of course he would get my permission first. I really appreciated that comment. I'm not sure if he will write the book soon (or ever) so it isn't pressing now.
