"Being" Friends.
Divulging our deepest, darkest secrets week after week, it's no wonder we fantasize about being friends with our shrinks. With little information about their personal lives, it's not uncommon to contrive the who, what, where, and when of their joys, grievances, and favorite meals. The reality, however, is that we do this everyday with people we barely know, and 99% of the time we're way off, projecting our own values and insecurities onto familiar faces that have no genuine significance in the grander scheme of what we know to be true and not. But hey, if we didn't, they'd be out of their jobs, and we'd all be at the mercy of our one-dimensional perspectives with little to no hope of growth and resolution. Enjoy!
