A couple of years ago I was diagnosed with bpd and medicated accordingly. The diagnosis was way off and I subsequently learned that the pdoc I was seeing was more sick that most of his patients. The medication almost killed me. I had a powerful blood pressure reaction to it and all the added meds to combat side effects. (Fortunately whilst in hospital).
Sorry - quite off the point. Anyway, more recently I was diagnosed with MDD and GAD and this seemed to make a lot more sense to me.

I composed a reply earlier then changed my mind, but feel I have to say that I feel "strange" that your therapist is suggesting that you are manipulative. This just doesn't seem the kind of thing a therapist should do. That is just my opinion of course.

Oh, and you know what? You do fit in! I believe you fit in quite well here. And will find plenty love and support. I wish you strength.
