Thank you so much! I was misdiagnosed as bipolar for fourteen years. Then I took a couple of test and like magic! I was upgraded to CPTSD.
If you are bipolar with a history of child abuse, they automatically slap that other personality disorder on you. I got so sick of having DBT rammed down my throat I went to the patient advocate.

There are always grey area's in these disorders,but when it is so easy and simple to test people-why don't they?

I have to go to the VA tomorrow and see my 'trauma' shrink. I'm taking this article with me. I'll let ya know how it goes.
