I wonder if your therapist asks how you are just to give you a moment’s pause before plunging into that day’s session? Or could be he really wants to know, as in, “Has anything new come up you really need to talk about?” Maybe it’s his way of nudging you into blurting out, “I’m suicidal” or “today I just feel numb” or whatever.

I hate that question myself though, so I know what you mean. My automatic response is always, “Fine.” I could be on my death bed and if asked how I was that would be my response (though I don’t know why someone would ask that of someone on their death bed, but that’s beside the point!)

“how are you?” is a question I’m never sure how to answer. That’s about as bad as, “So how does that make you feel?” Or “so what would you like to talk about today?”
