Did she prescribe any meds because it could take 3-4 weeks for those to kick in. While it is helpful to see a therapist more often than that, it may not help to see a psychiatrist more often due to the time it takes to assess medication.

I think emotional dysregulation is the basis of most mental suffering and illness. It basically means being overwhelmed by the intensity of emotional pain and not having the tools, techniques and coping methods to lower this pain. All the other diagnoses are speculative and throw-away. (No offense to others who have found these terms helpful - )
Thanks for this!
