Thank you for giving copies of my records.
Reading them has really helped me understand what happened and how I got misdiagnosed. I'm surprised that so much was withheld from me all those years ago. There are so many what I call lies. My family history is very inaccurate. In one discharge summary, the resident stated, "The patient's family history is significant for alcohol abuse in her father". She even went further,"The patient also has a history of sexual abuse and physical abuse in the past." Wow. None of this is a part of my history. Perhaps she got me mixed up with another patient or just added that in to justify Axis II: BPD, back when they were using DSM III.
Now, I am starting to really understand and can see cognitive bias at its best.
