My therapidt and I have been talking about me possibly having bpd for quite some time now, and at the end of our last session she talked to me as if I literally just had been diagnosed but she never explicitly mentioned me having bpd, I’m too tired to explain how she said it but I texted my therapist asking for clarification on if it was a diagnosis and she just told me she’s quite sure it is bpd, and that in our next session we will talk more and look at the criteria before officially setting a diagnosis.

I suddenly feel scared as hell and I dint know why because I literally have suspected bpd for a long ass time myself and had no problem with it but now that im actually most likely getting a diagnosis its hurting me and idk why? Maybe its cause ik its so stigmatized but i just.. the reality of it all is setting in rn and its like really. hard to take in i guess? shit man Was it hard for you guys when you got diagnosed
