[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 371785, member: 1991"] You did exactly what I would have done. I agree with your concern. I don't see that he is necessarily blaming the devil, though. It could be that, but it could also be that he sees a dark side to himself and is blaming that, while trying to understand exactly what it is and why these things are happening. The first thing you describe sounds like a mind map, aka clustering. It's a very useful technique for drafting writing tasks, and for collecting your ideas on a particular topic. We found a book in easy child 2/difficult child 2's room with some very similar dark stuff. Unfortunately, we found it a few years too late, we found it about five years or more after she wrote it/drew it. She was also cutting at the time, and hiding it. Also very intelligent - sometimes I think it can add to the anxiety component, and the cutting is a novel (but unhealthy) way to cope with the emotional pain. I hope the therapist keeps your confidence. Marg [/QUOTE]
