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
"i wish i was off work too"
"great, let's swap, you can have my psychotic illness, and i'll have your job"

I'm learning new things about what was actually going on for the 4-5 years I was #Delusional .
Thanks #mad brain
I was called manipulative by a Psychiatrist. An actual doctor. I didn't even have BPD on the records in front of her.
Seriously why call someone you think is ill manipulative
Also turns out I've #ADHD
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.
