Helooooo,so I just have a few questions about the diagnoses for bpd. I check like 6 of the main 9 symptoms for bpd and feel like I resonate with the posts I see on here more than anywhere else in the world lol,but I am still in the waiting process with getting help with whatever tf is going on with me. Iv spoken to a psychiatric nurse over the phone after like 15 weeks of waiting and she said she’d get in touch, on the phone I told her about my experiences and said that I feel like I resonate with bpd but obviously am no professional but now I’m starting to panic what if I don’t have bpd but am given some kind of false diagnosis due to my belief that I could. This is such a dumb fear lol and I know that no matter what happens I will be so grateful for finally getting help, but how did you know you definitely had the disorder ? I feel like there are so many possibilities as to what I could have but because we get taught literally nothing about mental health disorders , I really don’t know what’s wrong with me and feel like I could be trying to fit myself into something I might not be in order to get sone kind of diagnosis and a genuinely helpful doctor that will finalise evoke some change
