im currently in therapy and my therapist and i have both recognized traits of bpd from me. i’ve been wanting to get more help on those especially, but the problem is that i’m terrible at being open to my therapist. i think it’s a fear thing, i don’t like over sharing with people because i feel like it makes me more vulnerable and i try to stay under the radar. we were talking about sense of self today and i didn’t have anything to share, i struggled the entire session because i didn’t know what to say. that part is probably a different issue focused on my fucked up sense of self but i really just have trouble with sharing with her. she even mentioned today that she feels like i hold back a lot and she doesn’t know how effectively she’s treating me, and i feel terrible. i really don’t want another therapist as well, having to restart especially right now will just be 10x worse. does anyone have any tips on how to be more open/less guarded in therapy? or just an idea on where to start? anything helps.
