معنی
Sharing one's troubles with someone.
زمینه فرهنگی
The phrase is often associated with the long conversations that happen after drinking Turkish coffee. The act of 'fal bakmak' (fortune telling) often serves as a safe entry point for someone to start 'iç dökmek.' Many traditional songs are essentially the singer 'pouring their heart out' to the listener. The 'saz' (lute) is often called the 'sırdaş' (confidant) of the singer. In modern Turkey, 'iç dökmek' has moved to digital spaces. Users often start long threads with 'Biraz içimi dökeceğim' to signal a personal and vulnerable story. While therapy was once stigmatized, it is now common, and 'iç dökmek' is the most common way people describe what they do in a session.
Use Possessives
Always remember to say 'içimi', 'içini', etc. Just saying 'iç döktüm' sounds a bit like a dictionary entry.
Negative Only
Don't use this for happy news. It's for the heavy stuff.

Pair with 'Rahatlamak'
