Um, I mostly agree with you. But, my T at least, has admitted that she didn't know "everything" about me when she first started seeing me. She said that my issues didn't become clear to her until a certain point when I kind of just mentioned something about what I was feeling. But it was a mutual discovery, really, so she didn't make me feel like I was a "textbook" case.
My pdoc? I think he has his own preconceived ideas, but he has had to adjust them as he has gotten to know me better. I've asked them both, at different times, "when did you know?" and "what do you see my issues as being?" and in both cases it lead to some pretty interesting discussions.
Maybe you should talk to your T about it? Try not to put yourself in a box--you are an individual, and while yes there are stages/diagnoses, etc. in therapy, everyone gets there in their own unique way. So you are special!
