Read the following and answer the question:
CLIENT: Someone said that good things can come from evil things. What happened to my son was evil. But we'll give him all the support he needs to get through this.

When I let it all out last week, it was like throwing off a dirty cloak that I'd been wearing for years. Getting it out was so painful, but now I feel so different, so good. I wonder why I had to hold it in for so long.
