I totally agree Dinah, but unfortunately not everyone does. A lot of people (professionals included) hear borderline and already have decided that youre this, that, and the other.. whether or not you've ever felt or behaved in some particular way. And normal behaviors can easily get viewed through the lens of bpd and appear pathological if you're not careful. A really hate the bpd diagnosis (in general) because its really just a word that means unstable, overreacting, manipulative, etc, all in one. Who *wouldnt* object to being called that?
