I created a new user and set up the private directory and it worked as
the way it should, so I went into my home directory and deleted .Private
and .ecryptfs and set up a private directory and it now works correctly.

I now have run into another problem. Before leaving my home directory I
umounted the private directory, then logged in as my other user, the
private directory was not mounted, so I mounted it using one of the
scripts I created to mount and umount the private directory. I then
switched users to my main user and the private directory was mounted and
accessible. So when a user mounts the private directory in their home
directory, all private directories get mounted system wide.

Mount script:
#!/bin/sh
mount.ecryptfs_private

Umount script:
#!/bin/sh
umount.ecryptfs_private
