Hi Miss Laura. Eight years ago is quite a while ago. Also, exactly how many hours did that nurse interact with you, and what did she ask or witness? I'd be hesitant to automatically assume just as a nurse shouldn't automatically assume. Some bipolar symptoms are similar to those of personality disorders.

I assume you have had a long"ish" term psychiatrist and/or therapist. Have they ever referenced anything to do with a personality disorder or "traits"? If this is bugging you, consider asking them to evaluate you on this. They may see something, or maybe they'll unequivocally shoot that nurse's statement down.
