Thank you @Shaz51 You too 💖

That's so great @Captain24 about you staying safe by chatting to @Birdofparadise8 . The power of the forums is so real!

@Birdofparadise8 also wanted to check in to see how you're feeling about your diagnosis.

Very lost right now I don’t know what to do.

I also can’t see my psych this week the clinic is shut so that is just great. He will still call me though on Thursday to see how yesterday went so that good I guess.

I just don’t think I really have it as neither of the two psychologists I’ve seen has ever mentioned quite BPD before, because I’ve been doing some research and I really don’t think I have half the symptoms anyway.

This hank you for reaching out though I don’t have many people around me right now so it’s nice to have people on here for support @hanami.

Hi @Birdofparadise8

Understandable that you're feeling lost. It's quite significant to have this as your diagnosis and will take time to adjust. But it's interesting that the two psychologists you've seen have never mentioned it and you don't think yourself that you have it. Misdiagnosis' of mental illness definitely happen. Do you feel up to questioning the diagnosis? I mean with your psychologist or the actual psychiatrist. You definitely have the right to ask either of these professionals about it. Just something to think about as it sounds like this has really thrown you!

Yes I definitely will talk it through with my psychologist. I don’t think I will be seeing the psychiatrist again though he didn’t say anything about another appointment @hanami.

Oh ok, so he diagnosed you but not treating you. I would definitely talk to your psychologist about it.

Do you have something nice you can do for yourself today?

❤️

Yeah all very confusing I thought I was going to see him for a bit.

I have my weekly check in with my aunty today so that will be nice. I’ll probably just watch some tv, read my book and try and make myself go for a walk. I’m really tired I’m not sure I like this antipsychotic medication for sleep because I feel really tired and empty @hanami.

Those things sound nice and gentle for you. I hear you re medications. They can make you feel odd at times.

Hey @hanami @Paperdaisy @Captain24 @Captain24 @BPDSurvivor @tyme @Former-Member

How are you all?

Does anyone know if black and white thinking is to do with quite BPD. I’ve got my discharge summary from my psychologist and she mentioned that and I’ve been doing some research and I’m just don’t quite sure.

Also got my uni results back today and I failed 2 units and need to do another assessment to see if I can pass. I’m a bit disappointed but hopefully I’ll pass these test if not I’m not sure what I’m going to do.

Thanks
