Topic Tuesday // Living with BPD - your questions answered // 3 Oct. 7pm - 9pm AEST

This special edition of Topic Tuesday is to mark BPD Awareness Week.

We recognise that the experts in BPD are those who are living with it each day.

In the lead up to this session, we will be collecting questions they want answers to related to BPD and we invite those living with BPD to join this session to answer their questions, share their experiences, perspectives and smash the myths.

i didnt think 'Complex-ptsd' was in the dsm-V ? i thought it stayed as singular ptsd?

@Former-Member you are right. PTSD stayed as PTSD, and complex-PTSD sits somewhere else in the manual under a heading of proposed diagnoses or something (I'm not totally sure what the term is). This is partly why I have issues with it. It is being tossed around like a formal diagnosis, but as you say, it was never formally accepted into the DSM-V (goodness knows why!!!). In my view this further adds to the absurdity of people wandering around with the labels of both BPD AND complex-PTSD.

@Former-Member You didn't muddle the muddle more. Trust me, I'm so lost in the middle of my muddle that I wouldn't even notice more muddle piling up upon the muddle. All is well.
