Hi
newly diagnosed BPD.. bloody hell
u also have ADHD, major depression anxiety, PTSD.
Complex trauma with a history of all my relationships with Domestic Violence.. shit
diagnosed in the last week
Why now?
I am scared 😱
so many feelings, I don’t know what or how to feel
but… it’s the right diagnosis
I have always felt something wrong that didn’t feel right..
mental health is so stigmatised, I am afraid to tell my friends and family.
Am I crazy?
I just don’t know

Diagnosis is great. You get to be a member of a club of people you can instantly relate to and you also get a whole bunch of interesting maps that people make on their recovery journeys.
The next step, I guess, is to diagnose the future you and, I s'pose, then to diagnose the diagnostics of the systems that move and shake the jungle to get you going there. (I think I just described the "program logic" approach in a weird sort of rookie way).
