Not sure if I’ve chosen the right flair but -

Are there any psychologist/psychiatrists/councillors/OTs on this sub that suffer from BPD or similar? Were you diagnosed before, during or after your degree/certification? How did you find studying topics of mental health while working through your issues?

I ask as I am back at uni part time, with a major in sports and exercise science and a minor in sports psychology. My first psych unit is next semester, and it involves a semester long project on “self-management”. I’m currently in a particularly dark whole in my very long struggle with many issues, so I want to be prepared for my first time studying “myself”.
