anyone want to tell us about their glorious awkward moments in session?

[SalingerEsme]

I had to be on a panel in a fancy hotel, and I didn't have time to change before t appointment from the rehearsal breakfast. I went in this glitter Donna Karenish dress but for some reason the underlayer shed glitter EVERYWHERE . My T seems very fastidious to me, and I was just mortified that I left glitter on his couch and oriental rug. We still talk about it.

that was hilarious. Love it. I hope he didnt give you a hard time but found the funny side. Besides they usually have cleaners.

I find if my T reveals something I find awkward, I look down at my lap and say 'awkward......'

I cant help it, it just comes out. But I kind of laugh thinking of him saying it back to me if I said something, which he never would unless it is was to mock me in good natured humour

One time early on, I was too anxious to use my T's tissues, so I sort of tried to sniffle instead. At the end of the appointment, I leaned forward to get my payment out, and snot dripped out of my nose and onto my lap while my T was looking right at me. I have been attending sessions as a ghost since then because I literally died of embarrassment at that moment.

I had been seeing my therapist for a while when I had a question about billing and my insurance. He pulled out a folder about 1/2 inch thick and was looking through it when I asked "Is that my file"?. Without looking up, he answered "one of them".

Oh....

My T always opens his door and then calls my name. He goes back into the room and I follow him in. I always shut the door behind us.

Months into the sessions, he smiles and says 'You do know the door closes by itself'

I looked up to see one of those automatic hinges and felt really blonde.

Havent closed the door since...

My dogs hair gets everywhere and it just so happened to be at the edge of my mouth while I was chewing gum so my therapist watched as I tried to ignore it/pick it out of my mouth/try to move it with my tongue/accidentally swallowed it.

There was the time when I was a few moments late for having stopped at the restroom. Naturally, I apologized way too much.

She said, Shaggy, at my age (65), a good pee is more rewarding than an orgasm.

...I try not to think about that when I pee :O

I spilled water on myself in session, I felt stupid but he only made a comment when I did and it was a not big deal, it happens type thing

I can't think of any others off hand

[waterlogged]

I've had a pretty frequent habit of doing something really clumsy while I'm trying to get out of her office: either kicking the kleenex box, knocking over the trash can, tripping over my purse, tripping over my skirt, running into the side table, running into the door........ It's mortifying.

I was once describing how out of shape I felt physically and made a noise that was supposed to imitate being out of breath from jogging. It sounded really sexual. I was pretty embarrassed but I just went back to talking because I didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

omg yeah my t said that to me once too - "one of them" - i probably fill up a full drawer by now.... haha

[awkwardlyyours]

My stomach growled loudly and incessantly one time.

It was super embarrassing although she was joking about it.

Her stomach growls a fair bit too and so, I am not that embarassed.

If I go back in Time about old therapists I have boatloads of cringe.

But to keep it recent, I hugged t at the end of session and got makeup all over his white shirt. Weird thing is he made no effort to get it off, did not explain it to his wife and she never asked about it. And he told me the last part. Huh? Did I miss something?

As for after session awkwardness, last weekend I texted him hoping for help in the parking lot. A stray kitten kept following me but would not let me catch him. When I gave up and walked away he kept darting under my car and meowing at me. I texted kashi if he was done for the day does he want to help me out down here? Maybe he thought I was kidding so he just joked that maybe be kitty would eat the local rats.

That is odd he would randomly share that LOL... it reminds me, the one time I did cry, I cried on his shoulder while he hugged me and I got snot on his shirt, I don't think he knew though but it was still awkward feeling

When we were walking downtown I smacked my head into a mailbox hanging off a wall

[Sheffield]

T asked me how i was getting on with a close male freind- i looked him straight in the eye and asked him if what he really meant was did i fantasise about him outside of the therapy room
without missing a step he looked straight back and said i did wonder
now i try to remember nietzches words - if you play with fire with a therapist you will get burned!!
