BPD used to sometimes be called hysterical personality. Nice, huh?

My T said that dx's mean nothing for the most part, esp. for BPD. He said he does not use these labels for me, that he's never diagnosed me as such, other than having an anxiety disorder. More importantly, he said that there are a limited number of dx's and that no one fits any one of them exactly, that we are multifaceted.

And I have to disagree that "there is nothing that can help" a BPD. I recognize many of the characterstics in myself, and I am so much better than I used to be.

Racer, I do wish you well.
