 Story telling Psychology by M. Mair
Any telling seeks to stake a claim to a certain form of reality set over against other explicit and implicit claims that may have been made or might yet be made.
The manner of the telling speaks of the world of understanding being created just as powerfully as the 'content' of what is being said or produced.

 telling
Many people put off telling anyone because they usually have convinced themselves that anyone they tell will get upset, yell at them or abandon them.
Most people will also tell you that once they have told someone, they do feel an inner relief because they are no longer keeping the secret to themselves.
The thought of telling someone can be so terrifying that our minds will predict the worst case scenario of how people will react and try to convince you never to tell anyone.
