I’m currently doing a cPTSD paid study, and the facilitators are literally more trauma informed and compassionate than my previous therapist.

I was diagnosed with BPD in 2020 then went back to college. My college mental health counselor told me she didn’t think I had BPD because it’s unlikely I’d be in college with the condition. “You probably just have depression.” So I started believing it and it made me go crazy. After graduating, I got a second opinion and yes, they agreed with the original BPD diagnosis.

Filing this under “evidence of my theory that all the best psychiatrists are working in research, not private practice” 😔

I don't have trauma, I'm just extremely mentally ill due to family history bro. It's very well known that the medical system, including the mental health care system, ignores women

Medical misogyny is indeed a thing. Maybe take some time to listen to people that have this lived experience instead of assuming things that aren’t true.

Okay? I was. I think you need to listen to what people in this group are telling you and to try to be more respectful.
