Briefly discuss Will's attitude towards therapy in the begining. Explain why he has this attitude towards therapy. When does Will's attitude change towards therapy? Explain why.

Will's attitude towards herapy starts off with utter dicontent at the idea of therapy. He says "I'll do the math, but im seeing a fuckin' therapist." to Gerald wen pulled ou of jail befor attendig a session. He's too cool for therapy, he's to smart for other people to tell him what his problems are and hw to fix them, nd any real problems he has are sealed away in a past thats not in his life anymore. He tells the first heraist that he's been "hiding". hiding at clubs with loud music, and then when he realizes he's gettng to close to actually doig therapy- revalinghis true troubles and worries, he proceeds to attack the therapist's sexual orientation, saying "two minutes ago you were ready to give me a jump". He messes around with the therapists because their job is to judge his problems and understand them, and therefore judge him, in his eyes. This defensive mechanism of aggression changes when Robin William's character introduces trust into the equation, by tereating himas a person and not as a subject. The character shares personal information, and gives honest responses to things brought up by Will; ie. did you mary the wrong woman, and do you regret it? The respect provided by allowing Will to say silent if he so chooses during one session establishes the trust nd respect needed for Will not to feel like a subject, but be treated as a person, which is only fair.

By the way, no comments or questions please, as I will not come back to check hem, sorry, I only wrote this reponse because I'm doing a project on the movie and it seemed funny that no one responded.
