Plus I am a woman and a large percentage of BPD are female. Yes I was a **** when I was in there but is that a fair diagnosis. What's also bothering me is since I have came off efexor 225mg, I think that my depression has become worse but the psych dismissed me as being depressed and all he offered me is DBT... I am not happy and feel alone... Blah. Do you peeps think your diagnosis fits right with you. Maybe I just dont want to accept that diagnosis! Was my doctor just trying to make me feel better!?? Questions, questions.......
Hard to say. I'm diagnosed with BPD, but I think that I just barely meet the criteria. I think that other approaches, diagnoses just didn't help so my psych team called me BPD in order to get me into a DBT group. It hasn't been all that helpful, but I'm sure glad to have the weekly time with my psychologist and I do think that I'm learning a lot of useful stuff.

Sure hope you get all the help that you need.
Thanks for this!
