MH diagnoses are so subjective that I honestly don't pay them much mind. I've been diagnosed with ADHD and Anxiety NOS. My T doesn't think I have ADHD. I'm pretty sure I would have fit the criteria for Asperger's a year ago. I have borderline traits (I'm pretty sure most people do under enough stress). Personally I think I'm depressed and have been all my life. Labels are helpful for getting insurance companies to approve therapy and meds and the like (my Adderall has been a lifesaver, ADD or no), but that's about it. They mean very little in the real world IMNSHO.
