Do you agree with your ASD diagnosis?

I got the BPD diagnosis too. They also labeled me with dependent and histrionic PD when I was a teenager. At the time I was severely bullied, and felt alienated and livid. It is common for people with ASD to get personality disorder diagnoses. It can cause a lot of harm, because the treatment isn't appropriate, and clinicians tend to judge people with a PD label.

Unless you have are in an acute psychotic state or have a major depressive episode I wouldn't go near a hospital for life's adversities. Suicide attempts/ideation due to an interpersonal reason or life situation usually cause a psychiatrist to diagnose a PD.
