Hello Orbie: I take it, from your post, that perhaps you are not receiving any mental health services at the present time that would have resulted in your having received a formal diagnosis. I have received a variety of mental health services in the past. However, none of the professionals I've seen have ever offered a formal diagnosis. I'm not quite sure how I feel about this. On the one hand, it occurs to me that perhaps it's a good thing since I don't have anything specific to "latch onto". On the other hand, it also leaves me feeling kind-of "unsettled". I know I have all of these mental health problems going back many years. But they're all just kind-of this amorphous blob... nothing I can really look at & say: "okay that's what it is." It sounds as though you may be having a similar experience. My best wishes to you...
