i've been diagnosed w it some years ago
but now i'm sus abt it like i got therapy for some of the massive trauma and now??? most of the symptoms are "gone" and it doesn't have any impact on my daily life.
also a lot of women are over-diagnosed w it - it's the new hysteria and used a lot to discredit women in general. a lot of the symptoms overlap w c-ptsd and ptsd as well as other trauma related diagnoses, so i'm very skeptical.
i would rather say the symptoms fit men more than women, because wow they are truly the epitome of everything bad abt bpd.
Good to hear ur better now
and yea i am really not sure what diagnosis awaits me since ptsd also suits my symptoms as well as high functioning anxiety disorder so idk really what to think
i just hope i get the right diagnosis rather than being misdiagnosed with bpd for example
i'm also diagnosed w a schizotypal disorder, which overlaps a lot of the times w bpd, which is probs why i got the diagnosis in the first place because i was in a vulnerable space at the time i got my bpd disorder.
i'm now stable, so knowing what you're in for helps a lot w understanding why you end up w whatever diagnosis.
thanks for the advice & thanks for sharing!
