Sorry for the horrible title lmao, also english isn't my mother tongue.
I hope this isn't against the sub rules.
Hello! I made a post a long while ago about my psychiatrist telling me to kill myself. I wanted to give an update, I went to a more professional one and she diagnosed me with bipolar 2, and I couldn't be more lost. BPD symptoms speak out  to me, my life has come to a full circle. However,  she justified her diagnosis by saying that:

• Bipolar is a severe form of borderline; if my depressive symptoms are so severe that I want to kill myself, or if my irritability can get so  intense I can be physically violent, I'm don't have BPD but BD.  This I don't understand, BD can be co-morbid with BPD meaning that they cannot be on a spectrum (right?)

•I cannot be diagnosed with BPD since I'm still adolescent.

Above that, what she says is bipolar hypomania, is me getting triggered by something external which gives me a euphoric feeling for only a couple of minutes, an hour at most. 
Isn't the difference between borderline mood swings and bipolar ones is that the former is caused by something and isn't long while the latter is internal and has to last for 4 days in the least? 

Can anyone help me out?


I'm so sick of psychiatry
