My mum has had leukemia since 2012. I hate that diagnosis. Do I now sue her doctor for choosing an evil diagnosis for her?

Hope, it's completely up to you. Will you choose to accept professional help to help you with your symptoms? Or will you choose to refuse it and repeat the same BPD pattern over and over?

I'm sorry for sounding harsh but I only want you to get better and improve your life. Believe me, I know what it means to struggle with a diagnosis I hate. I'd love to have better eyesight and be able to drive a car. But I'm not so irresponsible to to sit in a car and kill someone in an accident. We can't just refuse diagnosis like you refuse a meal you dislike. We can only work on healing.

You denying BPD won't help you more than me denying I need glasses.
