I suffer from Toxic Honesty and it has actually endangered many of my relationships, including with my spouse. Some degree of lying is actually essential to the survival of relationships, especially with spouses.

Yeah, therapy really isn't perfect. And there are so many different specialists and methods. Unfortunately, most of them, and the most common of them (i.e. psychoanalysts), lead patients to focus on themselves and their own pain, validating their state of victimhood. Many psychologists have now argued that people's anxiety and depression stems from their environment, and that by making them work on "healing themselves" or "coping," therapists are preventing them from working to transform their environment. I read a book about it, forgot what it was called, though.

Totally agree and think that’s where this show is really valuable. It does a very good job of holding a mirror to the audience by making the plight of the characters so real and everyday.

I tend to think that the show isn't really painting Dr Indira as the problem, per say, but most of the episode is from their perspective, and their interpretation of what they're seeing. The wives also mention that they see a couples therapist themselves, so even the therapist has a therapist. The knowledge and skills doesn't make them omnipotent or make them always make the right decisions or have perfect control over their emotions, I think is the point. In general I think the whole show is, like, you should get therapy, but also don't expect it to be a cure-all and understand that there are flaws with that as well. But as for the sharing of personal details, yes, I think that's completely unprofessional. That's kind of what the end of this episode implies, with Diane doing something very unprofessional and saying that it's a story she's heard where she changed all the names, which is technically plagiarism. And even though they were supposed to protect their clients' identities, they still both confirmed that Princess Carolyn was the same person in both of their stories. They shouldn't be telling stories about their clients like that.

I've met people who regularly go to therapy for years and are still stuck in perpetual victimhood. They also speak like a mental health person but use someone else's trauma to hurt them in an argument to get their way. I guess none of us are perfect but maybe that's why we should be more sympathetic to each other. Mr. Chocolate Hazelnut Spread is adorable. Someone get him some churros.
