No but his therapist is a psychologist and recommended he work through the Dialectical Behaviour Therapy workbook that's designed for people with BPD. Our therapists are only short term, free with our employment benefits. Their role is to provide us with solutions to work with, hence why she's unable to diagnose him. He says he's working on rewiring his brain.

What you don't understand is that he also likely has brain injury from the many years of drug use and from lesions due to his medical condition. It's not so cut and dry and I'm unable to leave next month, anyway.

Apart from all this, we get along really well. Since covid19, doors opened up to a new realization. So I'm not so much interested in a label as much as I'm interested in understanding the root so I'm better prepared. Again, he's not physically aggressive, nor do we have screaming matches. A lot of this is covert.
