So, I’ve been seeing a psychiatrist for about 6 months. I mentioned in our first session that I thought I probably had BPD. It had been mentioned by my doctors prior to her, and I just knew I fit nearly all of the criteria. It’s been truly damning to my life. She kind of brushed me off and said, “I like to see someone a few times before I diagnose that.” And I’ve now seen her probably six times and she’s never mentioned it again. She’s diagnosed me as  bipolar, having depressive disorder, and panic disorder. But I do think we should now focus on the BPD. I realize not much can be done for BPD in regards to medication, but I need her referral for a therapist. Should I bring it up again? Has anyone else had a hard time being diagnosed even though you KNOW you have BPD?
