My most embassassing moment so far :) was , well a little background first. I am smitten with my T would be no matter HOW I met him and it is NOT a looks thing...so I always go looking GREAT. My best cloths and so on...well on this day..I had on a really pretty white dress it was summer...and when I was walking down to his office my one thigh hi started to come down. I was praying we would make it in his room before I had to grab for it ..as he always walks behind me :) nope....it started to go killing my smooth sexy siren look :) I was soooo embarassed I did catch it a little above the knee but :D it was a hoot.

OMG ---LOL!! I would have died. Not that I can get away with thigh highs. Especially since my Therapist walks behind me going upstairs!
Most embarressing thing "so far", I answered my cell phone, "Now What!" because I thought it was one of my kids. It was a holiday and they were home from school. My Therapist said, "ummm, bad time? I can call back..." Geez...

When we were in college, my now husband had not yet met my father. My dad called one day and my husband thought it was his best friend, they have similar voices, and said, "How the "F" are you!" TO MY DAD!!! They didn't meet for another 2 years but my husband was still apologizing.
My Therapist just laughed. He is very easy going and he has kids too. Besides, since he chooses to call me, he "risks" me picking up in all kinds of situations. His number is blocked so I can't tell it is him ahead of time.
And Dinah -- come one! At least one story! Make me smile. I need it.

I have thousands of embarassing therapy moments. But I can't recall a single funny one.
Maybe that's because the mishap sort of embarassing wouldn't stick in my mind. I'm one big mishap.

This is not EXACTLY during the appointment, but it happened right before my session. BTW, does anyone else have to pee like a horse right before the T. opens the door? I swear I could pee a thousand times before my sessions....anyway...I was going to the bathroom in the office building and the bathroom has one of those timer/dials by the door to keep the lights on for 5 or 10 or whatever minutes. I was running late for the appt and had to pee really bad and I forgot about the timer since the light was on already....and you know what happened!!!
I had just finished my business and was pulling up my pants when BAM!!!! It was pitch black! The lights went off!!!! I couldn't find the toilet, the door, the lock on the door....and I had to use the wall as a guide to find the door!!!!!!!! I said to myself, "I know I am totally clueless and in the dark most of the time, but this is ridiculous!"....
Told my T. about it and we laughed for a good while. What was ridiculous was me trying to flush and get my journal and everything in the dark. It finally occurred to me to GO TURN THE LIGHTS ON and then come back and flush!!!!! I never said I was smart!!!!!

I Googled my therapist and found a page an ex-boyfriend put up. Complete with a pic that was like 30 years ago--OHMYGOD. And it had some seriously racey stuff in it too along with some bad poetry she'd written to him.
It was tres embarassing as I felt I needed to let her know. I left her voicemail. When I saw her that evening it was reeeeally awkward.
Eeks. Beware of who you Google.

LMFAO....OMG KindGirl, I always thought those lights were motion activated ...gulp we have them too.Now I will carry a tiny flashlight in my purse ..no kidding :) I think I would have done the same thing as you did. I would not want to leave my stahl in the dark without all my stuff.
I too go to the bathroom a lot but once I get to his waitingroom I dont..I can go at home..stop on my way to his office and then again at his office . I am not aware of being nervous but must be at times :)

I am incredibly hard to embarass. As such I really can't pin down a most embarassing moment. God knows all the things I have said should have made me the poster child for embarassing moments but they don't. Guess I'm too focused on my mission. (haha!)

If I was to have an embarassing moment it would be something like that, for sure...hahah....
I always go in my best clothes too. In my twisted world, I'm going on a date or something it would seem...haha...

Hi Fallen!
Nope,didn't share a boyfriend--this was one of her old flames that put up a page on her. It was amazingly weird to read this stuff about her.
Occassionally it'll come up and she always asks if I want to discuss it further but it actually made me like her a bit more since it showed she was a wild child so I don't have problems with it. She had said that she and I were alot alike--both really rebellious and from this page I could understand that statement a bit more!

Daisy, your T just calls you out of the blue for no reason? No fair, I'm so envious. I wish my T would do that. She never does, and despite this fact, every time my phone rings my first hope is that it's her. Pathetic, huh.

You want embarrassing?!
My husband and I were leaving to go camping right after my app't with my therapist. A couple of days later, when we pulled into a town where I thought I should look sort of nice to walk around, I got out the throusers I was wearing when I saw my therapist. To my horror, there was a huge, and I mean HUGE, hole in the crotch. I sit on a sofa opposite my shrink, and I often will sit cross-legged, or with my feet curled under me, etc.- I make a point of leaving my body to express what it will. Chances are if that hole didn't happen in the few hours I wore those pants after I saw him, that I sat there with my white cotton undies showing for part of the session. Believe me, there would have been nothing even remotely erotic about this sight.
I have no conscious desire to have physical contact with my shrink, aside from wanting to lean against him and suck my thumb.
Another moment: I got myself a nice little stuffed animal, a sweet little soft thing that I was carrying around with me - just a whim. One day, the girl who went my therapist office when I left was carrying a big stuffed animal, so I thought, what the hell, if she can, I can. So next time I took my animal with me, and told him that I'd seen the girl with hers, and he said, ah, er ... her's is a backpack.

LOL. Don't be embarassed! I went for several months with one of those My Twinn dolls I had gotten. The ones you can get to be made up to look like you? I had one made to look like me as a little girl and brought it in to try to get in touch with the little girl inside. But it was also good for hugging.
I got some odd stares in the elevators sometimes, but most people just thought the doll was pretty and lifelike. No one, of course, caught the resemblence.

There is usually a reason -- like he knows something "big" is happening at work or we had a really hard session and he is checking in. Typically I've left a message but I have a hectic schedule and so does he so we play cell tag.
Sometimes I worry that he is *too* accessible, but usually I like that he is around when I need him.
