>For the most part, I didn't understand what was said but felt uneasy and under attack. After every session I would write down all that was said in a notebook. Years later I reread the notebook and suddenly understood the "code". The understanding totally devastated me and the result was a psychotic breakdown.
That is fascinating.
I didn't understand heaps of what my T said but it was probably easy-peasy by comparison....I'm just talking about 'holding' and 'bits of me in you' kind of stuff (Winnicott, Mahler, Klein), which may (for all I know) refer to projective identification. Even that, though it has been explained to me many times, I fail to grasp and likely never will now, becoming more stupid by the year.
What I want to know is.....when you understood the code and went psychotic, is that an understanding available to you now?
