It takes that long for a client to get comfortable enough to start being honest about things beyond the superficial.
We mainly covered a lot of my childhood in the first few sessions and then went straight into the relationship with code3. I spoke for one whole session with him about personality disorders and explained what I do in my relationship and how I post on this forum and that you suspected I had borderline personality disorder. His reaction was that I control my emotions too well and have empathy etc. Not a personality disorder, just a lack of impulse control.
I know how I must seem in this thread, what I write is just a rambling of my thoughts. Irl I'm actually really composed and keep my thoughts in my head. Like I've said before when code3 and I argue, it's been 99% over text. The actual in person arguments that we had were pretty tame; more of discussions... I cried a few times, but nothing more than that.Code3 can attest to this.I lost control the one time when I "attacked" him; that's the one and it time I've ever lost control like that. I was so hurt and angry and felt like he just wasn't listening to me or didn't care.
And you say I'm narcissistic here, but IRL I don't do anything to draw attention to my self and I'm pretty much just isolate myself and always have.
