Itīs not a proffessional diagnosis, itīs just something she told me based on seeing me just a couple of times. Itīs because of that not about me liking a diagnosis but me being very upset by her acting as she is neighter a psychologist nor a psychiatrist.
Itīs also a difference between talking about neuropsychiatric diagnoses, as for example aspbergers and to tell a client a diagnosis like depression.

In the US, you need a diagnosis for health insurance.
Everyone that sees a psychologist or psychiatrist gets a diagnosis, because it helps T and pdoc with a treatment plan, etc.
