I, too, understand about not promising T anything. I never want to promise her anything that I'm not sure that I can keep. And I put up an awful lot of resistance too, but I wish that I could stop resisting and let her help like I begged her to do. I'm trying to be more cooperative, even though it is really hard. Why would you ask someone, like T, for help, and then resist the advice that they give you? I know that there are lots of answers to that question, but I'm asking you (and anyone else it applies to) to consider why you do that, and why you continue the therapy relationship under those circumstances.
