I (F18) been going to therapy since I was 7. Despite all the therapy I’ve undergone, and the therapists I’ve seen. I can’t find myself getting better. My sister has BPD, I grew up in a traditional BPD-brewing household. I’ve been researching for the past couple of months, and the things I’ve been feeling for years align perfectly with what it’s like to have BPD. my therapists and I have talked about my depression, my anxiety, and my potential bipolar (said im too young to diagnose). BPD’s never been brought up. I start therapy for the first time in a while through my university tomorrow, and I’m wondering what a good way to bring up a potential diagnosis. Of course they’d need to talk and get to know me before handing out a “BPD-pass”, but I’m wondering how I can word things to have a productive conversation about this disorder? I don’t want them to get offended and think I think I know more than them.
