Ok, I wonīt go too deep into my personal history. Too long story to be told in a foreign language.
My main issue is now "Who can decide if You are sick or sane, ultimately?" and I am really concerned with this question now, as I have decided to leave a psychoanalysis after half a year, feeling that artificial problems are being produced there and the REAL stuff that troubles me is being totally neglected.
I have been told a sentence that provoked a blizzard deep in myself and that was "Well if You didnīd feel you are having problems, You wouldnīt be here, right?" (Oh. All the people with really severe personality disturbances whom I know who refuse any kind of treatment popped into my mind and I kept thinking "So does the fact that they donīt go to therapy makes THEM sane whereas my willingness to go there makes ME sick?") ... that was a response to my defence that I donīt feel that my relationships with men would be the main (if not only) cause of my problems.
WHAT IF my problem is that I constantly seek a diagnosis or treatment for myself, because deep inside I think that I must be sick or deviant - thatīs what my dysfunctional family taught me, yeah. Of course when a 12 y.o. stops eating and doesnīt want to live, SHE is diagnosed and proclaimed sick and continues go to submit to f****** therapies even though she doesnīt really know whether she needs them... sorry. I see I am not good in writing case studies.
I am just twisting from mental pain unable to solve the question of my own sanity.
