Yeah I'm not big on labels either, I think they are a good starting point for recognising behaviours/symptoms though. I mean, when I found out about ADHD, I had 80% of the symptoms on the list, but only saw one of them as a problem (focus), well starting MPH (wrong med for me) I starting seeing how actually the rest of the symptoms were indeed problems.
I do trust my new pdoc (last one literally nearly killed me), however I'm struggling to allow decision to be made by another because of what happened with my previous pdoc. I actually submitted to their authority (first time in my life) because I knew my personality wouldn't help if got in the way of treatment/relationship with pdoc, but that was the biggest mistake of my life. I've even developed NEW problems because of them.
I definitely agree about making us better people, Fizzyo, i'm just trying to find some more directions to look at, so I am more likely/able to identify any problems and acknowledge them.
Thank you all.
