I went to therapy initially after being diagnosed with BPD by a psychiatrist after speaking w him for 20 mins. My therapist expressed that he wasn’t sure I had it (first session). Fast fwd 2 years later and BPD never having been brought up during that time, I tell my therapist I want to take a break bc I need to focus on work. He tells me he thinks I have BPD. 

I was honestly planning on returning to therapy after a couple months, until he decided to share that little piece of information with me on my last sesh before a break. Seemed manipulative, like a way to guarantee that I would come back. So now I don’t want to bc I don’t feel like I can trust him after that, and I want to try to manage myself without any help. Anyone had any success doing this?
