I had a conversation with my old T today regarding this. I called her because I know that she knows how I struggle with hearing that label, and I know she'd be honest with me if she thought it fit, but she has never said she thought that. The conversation was helpful. She said that a year or so ago I may have qualified for BPD, but feels like anyone would have a hard time diagnosing me with that now. I can agree with that. We talked a little about how to best approach it with my current T to make her hear me and hear what I'm saying NOT just as a further example of my "disorder", but as a valid concern. I see my T next Thurs (10 days from now) and will address it with her then. :)
