Whatever you do just don’t get tested for it. If you want treatment align it with C-PTSD. There are minor differences so it isn’t hard. Treatments have the same effect but having that diagnosis on your official chart make finding a doctor to help you extremely hard. Your mental state will always be in question even if it’s for something like back pain. I have it, officially undiagnosed but that was from the advisement of my doctors because they know how BPD is handled in regular medical care.

Fucking hell, that’s annoying. I hate how so many doctors just think physical problems are immediately caused by psychological issues. Like mother fucker, I work a physical job, I think my back pain is from crooking my neck while doing side work all the time, not from BPD.

My psychiatrist says they use this analogy for most for the healthcare industry for teaching BPD. Someone with BPD is the mental equivalent of having 3rd degree burns over 90% of their body. Would you save that patient? Most of the time that answer is no.

That’s fucking stupid. I love when they just conveniently forget that they deal with, you know, PEOPLE. People with lives, thoughts, and aspirations.
