This list has been so quiet that I thought I'd start a new thread. I was hospitalized in July after a suicide attempt. I am taking parnate and haven't been depressed -- in a vegetative state, unable to care for myself -- since I started a year ago. But my p-doc now says I have a personality disorder. That my fears of loneliness and abandonment and not being cared for are recurrent themes that have not gone away despite 5 years of dynamic therapy and remission of severe depression. I saw a consultant last year who told my p-doc I was the most disturbed patient he had ever seen.
I'm kind of disturbed by this tag of personality disorder. I know it's kind of a catch-all term for a whole slew of dysfunctional behaviors, but it freaks me out, frankly.
Have other people been tagged as having personality disorders?
