Can someone please explain the differences? They are both so similar. I'm seeing a counselor and I've been afraid to ask her what my diagnosis is. I know you can't self diagnose but I feel like it would be easier to ask if she thinks I have something specific. I'm paying $125 a visit and she wants to see me weekly and I can't afford it. I would really like to have a possible diagnosis so I'm able to do my own research through books and things like that. Like I said, I know you can't self diagnose. I hope this makes sense...
