I think it is very unfair for anyone to give you the label 'hypochondriac'... it seems like you have been through a lot, and even if you don't meet necessary requirements for BPD or any other disorder, stuff like that can really affect some people. But it does sound like you have an anxiety issue, and perhaps something else.

For me, whenever I see a psychiatrist I tend to talk and talk and talk, because I finally get to talk with a professional about what I have experienced, and I end up feeling in the end that I just bugged them, and I get the sense the psych doesn't really care, or views me as naggy or neurotic or dramatic because of the way I presented myself. I miss my first psychiatrist because she was understanding and had patience with me and tried different medications instead of not willing to prescribe like a lot of other psychiatrists do. Does this sound similar?

Please keep us updated! I hope for the best for you and for the healing process to begin.
