no. we were just talking and she kept asking specific questions and they became more and more specific until i was like "i dont want to say my psuedonym on there".

yeah that's. really not her business. i mean unless she thinks this is some kind of weird pro-ana-esque site where people encourage each other to get worse, but a simple peek at the site would answer those questions without making it weird. :^\

that's going a bit far now in fairness. She clearly wants to pry.

I'm glad you set a boundary with her. I don't see why she would need to know that kind of information. My therapist knows I'm active on mental health forums but that's it, she's never asked me what my usernames are or anything like that.
Thanks for this!

Did you tell her it was PC you used? Not to make you paranoid, but for those that are savvy, it'd be easy enough to figure out who you were with that alone...

I think she was crossing boundaries though, although I'm sure there was no malicious intent behind her interest. I guess she would probably see it as a useful insight into how you are getting on.

she said she wasnt savvy and had no interest in looking up my private life. but i do feel slightly paranoid about it. she was like "i have no interest. thats like looking up your facebook. i have no interest and dont want to intrude on your private life".

i was like "good."

but who knows

That's just a joke. I doubt your T would have the time to come on here and try to figure out who you are.

Right, she's too busy. And I'm sure when she goes home all she wants to do is relax, not look for you here.

I'm sure she was only interested in passing. If you had told her, she probably would only have forgotten. Anyway, I wouldn't worry.
