i have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow and i’m finally going to talk to them about possibly having bpd. i know that they can’t diagnose me but i’m hoping to see a psychiatrist soon (hopefully i don’t have to wait too long ahh).

i’ve been researching bpd for the last few months and i’ve found that i relate to the experiences of other people so much. i don’t want to self diagnose, but i’ve always felt so isolated from other people and like there was something wrong with me but reading about experiences and symptoms that lined up with mine gave me so much closure. however i’m not sure how to bring this up with my doctor bc i’m scared of not being taken seriously. i’ve already been diagnosed with depression and i’m on my third antidepressant bc they don’t seem to work on me. 

basically, i wanted to know how to bring up that i may have bpd with my doctor, as well as any tips or advice. 

thank you so much :)
