I'm not diagnosed.
Currently in my life I'm at a point where I feel I can't help myself anymore. I need to seek help.

I called my insurance provider and asked for a referral to a psychologist. I answered some questions. The lady on the phone asked if I wanted medicine management as well or just a therapist. I said therapist.

What's the difference in a psychologist and a therapist?

I want to get help specifically for what I suspect is BPD and PTSD.
I'm afraid that my insurance will just give me any general therapist that doesn't specialize in anything.

I also dislike how you can't browse the options online for my insurance.
From what I remember they just tell you a list over the phone of the closest people available without any details of what these people specialize in.

Any advice or insight you can give me?
