I've decided to ignore the diagnoses I was told I have in my last inpatient experience. I was not, at first, willing to accept certain things as true, but I've since begun to observe certain traits which would seem to validate the labels I was given.

On any given day, I'll reject or accept these labels depending on how I feel. For the most part, since I consider my life to be over now, I ignore the diagnoses and labels, and/or wonder how it is that I could share labels with serial killers and other criminals. It seems overblown to me, as I've never had even a traffic ticket in the last 35 years. But OK. I'm sure they know what they're doing (NOT!!!!!).

ETA: I was heartbroken when I found out these diagnoses. I felt extremely abused by the people who labeled me.
