Dr. Colin Ross has shown that for people who have suffered trauma, it doesn't really matter what the specific diagnosis is or which particular symptoms a person is suffering, if the trauma is addressed and handled, a person's quality of life improves. Symptoms decline, diagnoses may sometimes be lost. So I agree with Amyjay that the label is not necessarily that important, unless it would be validating and is therefore important to you personally. Healing is possible regardless of the diagnosis.
