I do - but it's mostly "minor" (IMO) cusses like "*****" and "hell". I've yet to drop an F-bomb although I use those in everyday conversation because somehow it feels... abrasive in front of my very proper T. Perhaps I'll ask her one day if she minds if I curse as sometimes that's the only way to express the depth of my sentiment.

I do. Every so often so does she. It's how I talk and though I try and keep it in check sometimes swear words will slip out. She is unphased. She has a background of working with teens so I am sure I am the height of decorum really.

I'm like you. I only use the "minor" ones, but then I just don't cuss in front of others much anyway.

On occasion, but I'm not one to use foul language very often regardless. I'm more of a cuss when I stub my toe kind of cusser.
Thanks for this!

I resisted for a while, then did so only apologetically but the thing is, I do curse in my everyday life. That's part of my natural speech.

So one day I started to curse in therapy— it opened something up in me and I saw and my T responded to this positively, even cursing a little herself to show it was okay.

So **** yes, I curse when I need to.

Wow. I cannot for the life of me imagine my T cursing. She's 35, Catholic and an ex-elementary school teacher. I think I will freak! LOL. But it's really great that you and your T have hit that level of comfort.

Rarely, but I don't swear much as a general rule. I don't particularly regulate my language in therapy. I use the words if I feel they are warranted. My T has surprised me a few times by swearing in response to something I'm sharing - but it was an appropriate response and I understood why she was using the language she did.

I tend to swear more when I'm hypomanic.

Casting witchy aspersions on hens et al still doesn't assuage any guilt re cooking them.

Chapter and verse please people..chapter and verse.

I didn't until my T dropped the F-bomb. So, I don't hold back anymore. I don't cuss like a sailor, but when needed, I let 'em fly.

Occasionally, if I'm really upset or anxious about something. Trying to think whether my T curses...She's certainly not bothered by it when I do.

Husband curses a fair amount (not just the little ones!) in marriage counseling. I tend to avoid it as much as I can, but something slips out on occasion. And MC will let one slip from time to time. But our MC mainly works with teenagers, so I suspect much of what we say is very tame compared to those clients!

It was very rare, and only for emphasis. Its the same in my everyday life. I get uncomfortable when I hear a lot of cursing.

You bet your ****ing @$$! LOL. My T doesn't seem the type, but has picked it up a little bit herself. I never cuss TO her, just using the words in general.
Thanks for this!

Sometimes I will filter myself if the occasion to topic doesn't call for it. However, I have been know to curse like a drunken sailor if I need to! (Yes, including f-bombs!). If the T can't take it, then the T ain't for me!

No. I'm a bit afraid she would think bad of me if I do. Though she might curse too in her private life. But I don't curse that much, only when I'm in pain or when I'm really angry or irritated. I think I have use the word ***hole or jackass some time in therapy, but that's it.
