This question is for you who know something about "splitting" when someone is BPD or schizoid. Maybe some of you have been through this.
Recently my therapy has been deep into ambivalent transference with T. My inner child feels she's a good therapist/mom, but also very afraid of any dependence.
T is modern psychodynamic therapist and been very good with me until last week. I'm regressed to early childhood and T often explains that regression and dependence is OK before growing independent naturally in therapy. My adult self does good in everyday life but inner kid is a mess!
But last week, T began to talk up the independence side for longer than usual. It made me terribly anxious. Suddenly, overnight, T has become split into two separate therapists: A bait-n-switch cruel therapist and a good-mom therapist. They are two separate therapists now in different places in my mind. They don't get near each other, and are kept in separate rooms it seems. But I feel much better with it that way.
I would like to know if this splitting of T is something good to happen, or do you think it was a mistake T made?
