My therapist told me a while ago that he was pretty sure that i had bpd, and he couldn’t tell me for sure because I wasn’t 18 yet (he told me I fit all the criteria except being in that state for at least 5 years). And when he told my dad he disagreed and told me my therapist was lying, so he decided to take me to a psychiatrist to prove him wrong. Anyways, today I went to the psychiatrist and he asked me a couple of questions and didn’t really let me talk a lot, and then he spent the rest of the session with my parents, idk what they said because I was outside but when I came in again he told me I that i don’t have bpd because i’m functional. The thing is, when my therapist told me I could have bpd and told me about it after seeing me for like 3 sessions, I felt relieved to know what was happening, because I really identified with the symptoms so I felt really understood. Now that the psychiatrist has told me that I don’t have anything idk how to feel, and I know I should probably trust him since he’s a psychiatrist and not a psychologist but I feel a bit invalidated cause I still have the same problems and he didn’t even give me the chance to explain everything. Maybe im just gaslighting myself into thinking that I have bpd to feel like I belong somewhere but idk, what do you guys think?
