I tried to get my therapist to put me into a partial hospital program because I was really, really scared of approaching a big obstacle in life. I didn't see it as a manipulation at the time, but I do now. She saw right through it and refused.
That's part of the problem with having a DBT therapist, she treats borderlines all day. She knows exactly what I'm up to when I do things like that, even when I don't know myself.
