Aloha,
There are SO many PD's to choose from. During a depressive episode, many of us demonstrate unusual behaviors or coping mechanisms that CAN be attributed to a PD BUT... that doesn't mean we HAVE a PD! Sometimes a Pdoc will use a diagnosis code for a PD in order to prescribe a certain medication and have it covered by insurance etc... I think we sometimes get caught up or worried when another "label" is added to our diagnosis. (Not that depressed people (like me) always think the worst about everything!) Don't hesitate to ask your doc about the reason for the code but its probably/hopefully nothing to worry about. Sending hugs and best wishes
