I have been misdiagnosed. People do that. Every day. They misdiagnose. I am one of those people who will believe whatever bad that people say about me. Because I grew up having to believe all of the bad things that were told to me. So I do not have a real sense of self. I will take on whatever anyone wants to define me as. Its like the computer program called " me" has been deleted. And the default is sort of picking up fragments of whatever anyone puts in my computer that relates to me. So yes, I would take on a misdiagnosis. And I would be upset about it, if it did not fit. But would not know how to hit the delete button.
But there are ways to work on that. There is a way to slowly re-establish the computer program of "you". As you build that program, the good things you and others say about you will have a place to fit inside. Just my opinion.
IF you live in the USA perhaps you might want to call United way ( usually the phone number is 211) and asking them if there is any low cost mental health counselling in your area. Dont know if this idea appeals to you.
