Not at this point...she is too new. I can trust my social worker and my med doctor --- that's it. But I know what you mean.....family and friends, just can't handle what is going on in your mind.....

I worked for 30 years in the field of mental health. Hopefully your therapist is helping you develop skills that will allow you to slowly develop trust in others beside the therapist. You can develop trust and should apart from the therapist, who is not your friend or buddy, but your therapist.
Tell your therapist how you feel so the therapist will help you "spread your wings." You will start small with a person your know, spouse, or a relative, depending on the reason you are in therapy.
Trust is something that builds and is not automatic. Once trust is lost with a person it is nearly impossible for the average person to regain that trust. But the ability to initially develop a level of trust, for less than serious issues, is not as hard as you may imagine.
Again, talk to your therapist about this specific issue.

Ive been in therapy for 9 years now and the therapists are the only ones I can really trust. What I mean is with personal issues and things related to that matter of which I see them for. Right now I see this therapist and trust her with my life(experiences) in order to get a better handle of it. In my time I have dealt with some shady people and put some trust in them but most of the time I got burned if you know what I mean. I got a few friends who I trust but with limitations. In general the people I know I can trust and dont have to worry about anything I still have an issue of trust with them. That sounds sad but sometimes I feel that way. Trust is an issue that I work with myself and therapist. Believe me I can still hold a conversation with the best of them. I feel trust is not given but earned. Everyone is different and there are many degrees of trust. I have to know a person for a good period of time and trust is developed over that period too. Thanks for the question and letting me share a little bit on it.

This is an interesting question. I am learning how to trust my therapist. She's really nice, but I'm still holdin' back a bit. I usually trust my friends. I have a hard time with trusting adults. And trusting your therapist shouldn't be something bad, it should be a good thing. Good Luck and God Bless!!!

i can't afford therapy. and i don't trust therapists to really understand me anyway, as they are upholding a different culture.
