Just Lie.
Which ever dumbass that said "honesty is the best policy" is a fucking liar.
I read enough news articles to know this, if you want to preserve your freedom (that is, the very little remaining freedom that you still have under this ultra-capitalistic world), you have to lie, otherwise you will end up in a place wose than prison.
Therapy is usually voluntary, and the people going are going for a reason and that's usually to better themselves or help themselves in some way. So lying is just a massive waste of money and time.
Not that I go to therapy anymore, but you could still get some benefits of therapy without saying "I wanna wanna jump of a bridge right now".
Ironically, if I had said that, I'd be dead, because they'd lock me up and I would fucking hate life even more and I would have killed my self.
It's so ironic, the more they try to "help" you, the more harm it does.
