well, i can never even remember my dx -- it's very generic. basically i think it's an adjustment disorder or something. but i've suffered from depression and anxiety.

on thursday, the same day she said all this stuff to me that made me furious when i thought about it afterwards, she also (i didn't mention this) told me she thought maybe i was borderline. i guess maybe she's right but i always find diagnoses to be somewhat invalidating also, and borderline's an especially hard one. (she presented this very carefully to me, making sure i understood that she didn't think of this pejoratively. she also loaned me an interesting booklet about it. but it was still fairly disconcerting. no one's ever suggested i was borderline before. the booklet, though, makes it seem like an appropriate dx for me.)

why do you ask?


> Do you mind if I ask you what you are seeing your T for (in regard to dx's). I'm pretty open with my dx's but I know that not everyone is comfortable sharing them. I understand if you don't want to, I'm just curious.
