Hi ((((((nikkiamber))))))) I think it's good you have a diagnosis for your different emotional issues. I bet a lot of us here could also come up with a list of several different disorders that we suffer from (I know I could put together quite a list!!). What I'm saying is, I don't believe it is unusual to be diagnosed with several different disorders. As you say, a lot of disorders overlap. The main thing is that we get the treatment we need so we can learn to manage our issues better and get on with living our lives again. It sounds like you've put a lot of work into your treatment and that's great. I definitely do NOT think you are a "freak of nature"!! Good for you for working on yourself and getting the treatment that you need.

PS: Also, as someone else here wrote: don't forget that we are MORE than the sum of our disorders!! We may be diagnosed with this or that or the other, but our diagnosis is NOT the only thing that defines us!! I always find it helpful to try and remember that!!
