For years I had gone through life thinking I was "just" Borderline and Bipolar II. Then I had been admitted to a local psych hospital where I met up with my current Pdoc whom I greatly love and admire and he wanted to get to the bottom of all my problems so he had me do all these tests and meet with a psychologist whose job is solely to diagnose people. Well I went in with 2 diagnoses and came out with 6. I am still trying to wrap my little mind around them all and after reading about them I do agree that I have them. According to my therapist and doctor I have Borderline Personality, Bipolar II, Dependent Personality, Avoidant Personality, OCD and ADD. I tried rebelling against having them all but they gave me literature explaining them all and after reading about them I have to say that they are right on the money with them all. I will probably be on meds for the rest of my life and in therapy for the rest of my life if not for a really long time. But I may have these things wrong with me I try not to let them define me.
