I'm assuming baby borderline means the same as baby gay; being completely new to this stuff. Hence why I flaired this post as so.

So it's an incredibly long story about how this happened. To summarize, the story is childhood trauma, a mental hospital visit, and breaking down in front of my therapist.

Anyways. I went off on my therapist and was mad at her for doing family therapy sessions. Ended up feeling bad about that so explained childhood trauma which I never told anyone before. Obviously won't say anything that happened to avoid upsetting anyone here.

And after listening to that and all my issues, my therapist basically just yeah. She told me a lot of my issues sounded like borderline personality disorder. She said that I could very well have it, but I'm only 16 so she isn't comfortable diagnosing it. I'm getting treatment for it anyways at least.

I'm way too young for this shit at just 16. I've been told this by other psychologists before, that BPD could be an issue for me. But that was a one time thing in the hospital so I didn't have any trust in the psychologists really.

I've known my therapist for 3 years. So I guess it just hit me. She had been doing DBT with me earlier, but this is the first time she outright said anything. Honestly just at a loss right now, I'm 16 and can't believe it.

So I guess I just have some questions and want advice.

Can I just grow out of this? Do I have time to fix everything before my personality fully forms?

How seriously do I need to take therapy? Do I actually have to use the stuff my therapist provides me with?

When do I get to see improvement? Will things ever get better?
