I'm sorry you are so confused. People have often told me I don't have a mental illness because oftentimes I'm completely free of symptoms. It's even nice to be told this sometimes but if they stick around long enough they do tend to change their minds about me. It really is confusing and I'm sorry it's a professional who is adding to your confusion....that must make it much more difficult. Have you explained to them your reasons for confusion? Your feelings are valid. (((Hugs))))
