What are some of the weird statements that you have made in therapy? I would like to compare so that I can try and get an idea of where I sit on the freak-o-meter.

Things I have told T

1. Sometimes I feel like I want to be a warrior
2. I have an imaginary pet. He hides under the bed and attacks my fingers when I try to get my slippers.
3. Sometimes I daydream that I am being held.
4. I often feel that my race is inferior.
5. I repeat phrases to myself all the time.

Toilet, I want an imaginary pet! He sounds so cool!

Umm, I've told my T...

1. That having CBT made me want to kill my psychologist
2. That I love my car so much that sometimes I get out of bed just to look at it out of the window
3. That I used to think the world was going to end, every day
4. That I used to think someone was hiding in my flat, and I used to check for them inside the microwave, down the toilet, and in the washing machine
5. Recently, that I wrote out something to tell her on a sheet of paper, then burnt it and buried the ashes in the garden. I wrote it out again, and ripped it up and ate it. Took aaaaages.

Hmmm, all looks a bit worse now I've written it down

I told my T I would kill a CBT T within five minutes too ( I know some people like it but it's not for me ). The weirdest thing I told him was about my Mother - she was il and did strange things - one day she put up the Christmas Tree and hung seven pairs of my underwear from the branches - it wasn't even Christmas , it was the middle of June !

I told my t that I worried about becoming a serial killer. I don't know why but I went through a phase thinking I might turn into a sociopath or psychopath at any moment.

I told my t that she looked like a werewolf. Not this one but another one! She wasn't impressed

I've had some weird and one rather funny dream about T but I'm waaaayyyy too embarrassed to tell her. One of the dreams implied her being naked (I didn't really see her naked but I knew she was based on the story line) it wasn't a sexual dream at all but still super embarrassing. I might tell her the funny one someday though...

LOL! I told my T if he ever mentioned the word "mindfulness" again I might have to resort to murder.

The good news was that he knocked off that crap. The man does listen.

I had a discussion with my first t about whether each of us would become a vampire if given the opportunity. I was con; he, oddly, was pro.

That certain immediate family members believe that I have some supernatural powers because of which I seem to have magical luck (sadly, not apparent to me) and anyone who hurts me in any way would be smacked down from the heavens above.

T says that at some level I've internalized this particular bit of madness (my "other dimension" as she sarcastically puts it) since I seem to be hell-bent on being responsible for people in my life that she says are abusive (towards me).

when i was having a short hypomanic episode, i told one of my Ts that i was going to create a video game that integrates attachment psychology to teach children about relationships. One of many of my so-called 'inventions' that never materialized.

I told my T that this one part of me wanted to kill her. I told her that I hear her in my head at times. I told her that when I was a kid, i peed in jars and hid them in my dresser. I told her that when I'm feeling powerless, I read about her on the Internet. I also told her that I noticed what appeared to be glass or plastic on her waiting room floor, and to try and figure out if it was glass, I put it against my teeth, and that it was salt.

I don't think I have told the woman anything weird. I doubt she would be trustworthy with such a thing. She does not understand the regular things I tell her. Weird would just be handing her weapons for no good reason.

I haven't really told my T anything weird. The weirdest thing I can think of is that I told her I felt like a slut.

that the residential facility i was in and that he worked in was a cult. i tried so hard to convince him that it was a cult and that we needed to leave. he wasnt buying it. looking back its funny, but at the time it wasnt

I've told T that:
1) I engage in horrible negative self talk, and sent him a list of things I say to myself (kinda regret this...)
2) I, um, fly solo when I am anxious, to self-soothe :/
3) When I am in shut-down mode I get in bed and interlock my big toes together and just "freeze"
4) I believe this world is a dream (this belief comes and goes with me, and has my whole life)
