It sucks being vulnerable to this kind of control, but I really feel that if you are aware, then you have some defense. Knowledge is power. And everyone here is on your side.

As an aside, I am not a fan of anyone diagnosing themselves (or anyone else, for that matter). If you need a diagnosis for treatment's sake, see someone who knows. But that's just my opinion, fwiw.

Thank you, that means a lot.

I know what you mean about self diagnosis and I think my mum labelling me from a young age has affected me more than I realised.

I ask because I am quite surprised that after all this time, therapy has not seemed to assist you with this break up and your subsequently negative view of yourself.

I have only just started seeing a new therapist as the last one I saw (about 6 months ago) didn't really agree with me and I felt the connection wasn't there. I have tried various therapists in the past and I'm hoping this one works out better.

We are currently discussing my childhood and my mum labelling me with Aspergers/autism and the affect its had on me. However, I would like to talk more about this ex, but it's early days I guess. I see her every Thursday, so perhaps I should mention it this week.
