I am not necessarily smart, just stubborn I think, and sometimes I perseverate and that sort of goes on and on and onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

Yeah, that I do.

I admire your courage in therapy.

April, Echoes & Pink--For the record, I identify with most of my bpd friends here on PC and so if I pushed I imagine i would probably get that dx as well. But I just don't give a rat's *** about labels, because people misconstrue their meaning and that can really hurt and cause distress toward others when they define a person by a diagnosis. Every single case of illness is individual.

We need to be careful about making assumptions about one another and using MI dx as a way to hurt. April -- your last post was quite offensive in that regard. Maybe you can do as Pink suggests and not read these threads as they clearly cause you a lot of distress.
