Man, that says it for me. There have been so many times when I had to spell out that I was IN TROUBLE and a RISK TO MYSELF. And insist on it. I guess that says a lot about my defenses.
And yes, fruitless battles kind of summarizes my bad therapy of the past.

yes, this was my experince too. and i was not expecting my ex-T read my mind that i was in trouble because i was not only open and honest in telling him, but showing him the evidence (self harm wounds) that i was in trouble and he still refused to discern that i was deteriorating.
ETA: as an after thought, ex-T probably analysed my concern that i was deteriorating as nothing more than mere manipulation
