My T also stated at the beginning she wasn't diagnosing them but based upon what I've told her it's her opinion.

Because in relation to me and how they have affected me and my life past and current it is needed to know that it 'wasn't' me that there is a 'reason' and it is helping me cope with it better. So it was brought up only after I asked her about the possibility and it has helped me grow and understand things differently. It was brought up for the benefit of me, her client.
