Hey you.

Just to let you know that whatever you're up to today, if you're alone... then you're not.

We're there too.

Well I've just experienced the first time a medical professional has instantly recognised the very moment I dissociate.

I think I've lucked out.

If my first psychiatrist could see how far I've come. She made bad decisions, but she also saw my resilience and determination.

I'm far from cured. But born in another time Id have been locked up for life

Tomorrow I start EMDR, on the nhs. It took twitter to help me realise what is actually wrong with me and hence get the right treatment.

And the right psychologists listening to me and ignoring the #personalitydisorder diagnosis. #pd

On watching a tv show on modern times it turns out I have gaps in my current affairs knowledge.

I'm learning new things about what was actually going on for the 4-5 years I was #Delusional .

Thanks #mad brain

Seriously why call someone you think is ill manipulative

ADHD = it's rejection sensitivity, super common, let's help

BPD= you are showing 'frantic abandonment' because of your 'unstable sense of self' which makes you 'manipulative'' and 'attention-seeing'. We're going to treat you by rejecting you even more.
