Do you have a diagnosis? Or do you want to be diagnosed? What are your thoughts on diagnosis in general?

Yes. I have PTSD. I am still in denial about it and hate that I have it. She said most ppl are relieved to know their symptoms have a reason. Me? I'm not relieved about it at all.
I'm not sure if I care either way that I was diagnosed bc either way my life is still a struggle with or without the diagnosis.
