that is great withit :-)
i am a recovered borderline too :-)
though... i still have this other matter to deal with (past t's never dealt with the dissociation).
but i no longer meet criteria for BPD :-)
though i still consider i have borderline 'traits' (fear and longing for intimacy, trouble with emotion regulation especially when stressed, some PTSD symptoms).
but yeah, there surely is hope :-)
i've never had twice weekly therapy. i always wanted to see someone psychodynamic but that was never really an option. aside from seeing p-docs fortnightly and they always moved on after 3 or 6 months or a year. they were meant to be medication prescribers and some of them got in trouble for seeing me more than monthly, i think. but i always wanted to see someone psychodynamic twice a week. but now i'm seeing my t and the transference is starting to feel pretty intense i'm worried that seeing him more could make things worse (intensify it further) though it is possible it will make it better (by helping me internalise that image). we will see, i guess.
i think it is really nice that he comprimised with the once per week and an extra session every fortnight. back to idealising. sigh.
