The clinical psychologist I've been seeing for about a month told me she's diagnosed me with depression and cluster B traits (emotional dysregulation) but that I don't meet full criteria for BPD diagnosis. I guess that's good? I don't know how to feel about it. I  have such a weak/diffuse sense of identity, I thought this at least would help me figure out wtf is actually wrong with me. I suppose part of me is disappointed I don't have a label I can latch onto like I thought I did. Now I feel like when my b/f triggers my abandonment issues, I can't legitimately tell him it's the BPD making me freak out -- nope, it's just randomly defective me, sorry for not being a better human.
