I can talk about every issue on the book, from global economics to the holocaust. All in-depth and for the most part intelligently. The one thing I can not and almost refuse to talk about is myself, why?
The reason I ask is because I am in therapy and as you can imagine, it's been a real struggle.

Maybe you're embarrassed about yourself and your feelings? Maybe you don't know how to start?
Why not try something small? Take a little baby step? Maybe start by talking about something that's not traumatic, not a big deal. Like, what's your favorite meal and why? What's your favorite TV show? How did you choose the password for your computer -- what led to that decision? Do you have a hard time remembering phone numbers, or is it easy for you, and why do you think that is? Choose non-emotional things to talk about first, and that will build you up to talk about tougher stuff.
Good luck!

maybe you are still trying to figure out who you are.begin in therapy is hard work,and it asks you to confront things about
yourself that you may not like.so maybe you feel like you already talk enough about you.if you want to learn to talk about yourself
then talk about something you are really comfortable with.like your stand on the poltical right or left.you may find you have already been talking about you.you just didnt see it that way.
