I always find my T to be a lot easier to talk to than my pdoc
Hi yes - I have made my T aware if it. My T's view is that it isn't always helpful to have a label but if it is important to me, then we can both look at it together and come up with a label that seems to fit. I have been doing loads more reading since then and found a website that suggets some professionals believe that there is actually no difference between BP II and borderline personality disorder and even if there was the therapy to treat either would not differ - so I can see how a label is not essential. The only benefit seesm to be in terms of medication as anti dpressants not indicated for BP II.
