Fell off the wagon in a big way a few weeks ago - self harmed to the point where my SO took me to the emergency room for stitches and maybe sedatives to knock me out. As most of us are (I'm assuming) I was terrified of being sent to IP so I was as honest as possible with the crisis nurse I spoke with while omitting what I knew would get me put in IP.

Anyway, they ended up sending me home and making me an appointment with a new pdoc. Went to the appointment and he's convinced I'm NOT actually bipolar - or at least exclusively bipolar, but that my primary dx is borderline personality disorder.

Cue an unexpected identity crisis where bipolar has been such a big part of my life and identity over the past 6 years that I'm not sure how to deal with this?
