Re:What to Do When Diagnoses Conflict?!

Dear Confused,

I understand what you are going through, as I have been down that same road. It helped me to realize that labels are just that, labels. Sometimes they are just used to get the insurance company to pay for a particular treatment.

For years I was obsessed with figuring out what was wrong with me. It is a long story, but some of the things I was told are the same as yours.

I recently got involved in a DBT group and it has helped tremendously. It doesn't matter if you are classic BPD or not, you still may benefit from learning emotional regulation.

Try to focus on what you need to do to get well, not what labels or diagnoses are put on you.

Good Luck,

Margo
