I completely agree with unlived, @Sunflower. I thought that perhaps you were concerned about the "BPD" thing. Dumping people, especially women, into that category is far too common and just plain negligent. Another one is "personality disorder NOS." That terrible pdoc I had months ago labeled me with pd nos. It didn't fit, truly does not, and that was the last straw for me with her. It's very easy for me to pick up the "flavor" of BPD and I certainly don't get it from you. Yes, I encourage you to stand your ground if any weird diagnosis is dropped upon you.
btw - I'm very pleased to have heard that the old borderline personality disorder diagnosis is being changed in significant, encouraging ways when the DSM VI is released. Those changes are long overdue, imo.
I have more to reply to you; I'll be back after a while.
