I just found out that I was dxd BPD when I was 18. No one told me. I found it in my records looking for a Dr's name!

I found out by accident, too. Did my Ts think it was irrelevant to my treatment? Did they think it would be harmful for me to know because it is so stigmatizing, or because they didn't know what to do differently anyway? It's infuriating, because I wasn't given the chance to help myself by seeking appropriate treatment or educating myself.

My current therapist says she doesn't see too much of the BPD traits in me. But at the same token, I see some of them. Weird?

It may come down to the Dr. not wanting you to know the label he uses. My T does not want to label me for fear of me feeding into my issues. To her, I just have the "traits of possibly having BPD'. So is it better to have the label, or to not have the label. I still don't know what is better...

I found out the DX first this year doing PHP/IOP at a hospital Id been discharged from. I had been there off and on a total of 30 days in a few months! SO the Dr I saw the entire time is the one who Dx me but he didn't tell me either. I saw it on my treatment plan when I signed it for partial hosp. I cried for 4 days.

It can certainly suck reading our records
 . I wouldn't recommend it  But hopefully now you have more to work with
