Self-Disclosure: A Vulnerability or a Strength?
A very close friend of mine visited my clinic and we went to a local cafรฉ to spend some time together and had a heart-to-heart talk. After coming back to the clinic with him, I wanted his help in moving a heavy chair, and in response to that he told me that he had suffered from some kind of neuromuscular problem in his arms and wonโt be able to do the moving.
On another occasion, a relative of mine visited my house and he wonโt go upstairs to say hello to my mom. When I requested, he told me that he had some visual problems and wonโt be steady on the stairs.
What both these friends did was perfectly normal, an avoidance of self-disclosure. Itโs only normal not to share oneโs health issues with others.
