True. I can relate. I was "diagnosed" with some very unacceptable things when I was seventeen years old. Since those days, I have rejected those parts of myself as entirely false, and as "doctor mumbo-jumbo" so to speak. I have filled my heart and mind with delusional thinking to avoid the possibility that it could actually be true.
I don't have any advice because I am the least qualified person to give it lol. I can just totally relate. I recently experienced a rather severe psychotic episode that led me to take a second glance at some of the "names" that the doctors had called me so long ago.
It was helpful to me to see that the people who are also struggling with the "symptoms" of my identical life, are kind, wise, funny, smart, beautiful, and successful. I was then honored to be counted worthy to share one simple thing in common with such folk. Hope you find your way FB. Yours truly, Lightbulb7
