So, I didn't lie to my t about something, but I did purposefully not tell her. I see her tomorrow and I emailed her today and told her the truth about it. I feel sick.

doogie I know it's scary but yr T is going to be very happy that you decided to come out with it, and will focus on that.

that was hard, but very good work you did. good for you!!!

I'm sure it will be fine! I fessed up via email about my first ever therapy lie just last week after my session - I felt sick too, but I got a pleasant response back from my T that eased my mind some. I too will still be facing the music and having to talk about it tomorrow in session though, so I empathise!

I was exactly there just hours ago. Others here gave me comforting words; hang in there, you did the right thing by telling the truth, and it will be OK.

I know it feels awful, but like I learned here, a good T will know exactly what to do with it and will use it for your good.

Again, hang in there.

I once lied to T and then confessed a few sessions later. I then blurted out "You already knew!" even though he was looking at me with the same face he always does. Mortifying for sure, but kind of funny now.

Hang in there.
