By logging in to that account you can also log them out at any time of your choosing, and change the password so they can't get back in. (Even if they are sneaky and have changed the account's email address and/or password themselves you can still request a password reset to the original email address you set it up with.)

(I guess there are other versions, but this is the one I just found ^^)

Plus, given that dynamic IPs are still prevalent in most home browsing situations, that would be a problem in case the reader got cut off early, and they would have to request that the poster create another "guest pass" for them. I mean, I understand Flickr has such a guest pass system, sans IP requirements, but I don't know that I would use such a system were LJ to implement it. I might? But it just seems like it's poking one more hole in the dike.

The whole point is that the poster wants to give read-only access to their lj to someone else, without that someone else being able to login to their lj and change it, or read their friends’ friends-only entries.
Giving your password to a random website instead doesn’t solve the problem.

But even if this would be considered, knowing lj it would probably take ages to be implemented.
So I was suggesting a way for the poster to give his/her therapist a possibility to read the entries.
Afaik there are also versions of lj book where you can download a program and run it on your own computer to collect the data. Yes, I know, that is ALSO not the safest way, but well, it would be a quick way to let someone read the stuff.
