I've noticed that several post wriers in the different forums use abbreviations and acronyms - most of them I can figure out i.e. pc, pdoc, t or tdoc, ptsd, etc. But BPD is very confusing - some posters mean bipolar disorder and others mean borderline personality disorder. Is there a way of setting up and displaying a PC forum glossary. My suggestion would be BP for bipolar and BPD for borderline personality disorder. Is bipolar even classified as a dis order?

Bipolar is classified as a disorder, yes. The acronym for a disorder usually depends on the forum in which it is being used. In the Bipolar forum, BPD will refer to this rather than borderline personality, for example.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
