I just came from an inpatient treatment program and the doctors think I have BPD. Every doctor gave a different definition of the disorder. One doctor even told me that it was “stretch” to have a BPD because although I have most of the symptoms, I am not extreme; I don’t hurt myself, I’m not manipulative, etc. On the discharge notes, it just says I’m diagnosed with depression. I feel like depression doesn’t cover all my symptoms, but BPD has to many severe ones.

I guess my question is, how has receiving this diagnosis helped you? What has helped you in general?
