Is it worth continuing to open up to your therapist even though you only have one more session before they leave.

This session is not for another month, but I am feeling pretty down. I don't see the point in opening up when now its not anything we can further develope on. What is more no discussion of further therapy with someone else has been discussed, just other resources that will be avaliable to me ...

Up until recently had a cat that died of old age. She was a good friend. I am thinkng its time for a dog.

It will be a change, for sure.

My BPD is generally "under control". I have never abused an animal or anything like that ever.

Please respond.

I'm feeling a bit confused about relationships. I've been diagnosed with autism and BPD. Even though sometimes I want a relationship (non-sexual) I know I can't because the communication thing just gets too much. When people speak to me it doesn't go into my head and so I can't remember anything people have said. People talk about music, television, etc. but I can't remember anything I've watched or heard. I cant retain any information which ...

I got raped when I was 17 years old and I told my therapist and my family a while back and then preceded to tell them that I was lying about it. I just felt ashamed about it all. My therapist saw right through it and brought it up today and I told my sister that I really was raped. Now she is accusing me of talking #######4 to the family. I feel pretty bad ...

Hi. I believe I am Borderline, but I don't know. I don't really know anything other than the fact that I don't know what to do with myself. I am looking for someone, anyone, who is willing to talk to me via personal message/email who could give me advice. I feel so lost .

I hate days like these. My BF has been acting very aloof all day. I have approached him a few times and conversations have been terse and short. On one hand I know he is preoccupied with finances but on the other hand, I asked him if "we were alright and he didn't even look at me and said he had a lot if things to consider.

WTF.

He knows that to a bpder this ...

Just reaching out. So much has changed for me, on the positive side, since I re-started DBT several months ago. I've been in Skills Training since December (I'd gone for five years and then dropped out a few years ago, 2009). And I continued my regular "talk therapy" up until about a month ago, when I started individual DBT.

I've gotten even better since I started individual DBT. One thing that has gotten worse, however, ...

I've got my second session with the counsellor tomorrow and I'm just/ if not more scared to go this time!

I went along last week, opened up a tiny bit telling 'my story' came out feeling really positive that we connected and I like her she told me how she could help me ect. I had company from my husband and a close friend straight after till the next evening when my friend went home. ...
