I seen my doctor on Friday, primarily to start the B12 injections but also to catch up where things are at. It was a rather long appointment. She had seen Vanessa the previous Thursday and had spoken to Danielle that morning so we discussed what they had to say. Parts of what Vanessa had told my doctor really got to me, firstly as I don't agree with the diagnosis and secondly as I shouldn't be hearing things like it off my doctor, I should be hearing it off either my psychiatrist or psychologist.
Vanessa told my doctor that they think I have borderline personality disorder, which I don't agree with at all; nor does my doctor. My doctor doesn't understand how they've come to this conclusion. She is going to be telling them that she doesn't agree with that diagnosis as well.
The symptoms of borderline personality disorder are:
Okay; if I had borderline personality disorder I would not be able to maintain successful friendships. I would not be able to maintain the lifestyle I do, the ability to go to university would not exist.
So my doctor asked me to look at the differences and similarities of borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder. I believe the possibility of having biplolar disorder is greater then the possibility of having borderline personality disorder. I see her again just shy of two weeks. I had to cancel my appointment with Danielle next week as I gained more hours at work.
I am working Monday 9 -5, Tuesday 10 - !, Wednesday 10 - 6 and Friday 7 - 10. So I am staying at my aunts again Monday night.

The symptoms of borderline personality disorder are:
- Unstable interpersonal relationships, affective distress, marked impulsivity, and unstable self-image.
- Individuals with borderline personality disorder tend to experience frequent, strong and long-lasting states of aversive tension, often triggered by perceived rejection, being alone or perceived failure.
- They may show lability (changeability) between anger and anxiety or between depression and anxiety and temperamental sensitivity to emotive stimuli.
- The negative emotional states specific to BPD fall into four categories: destructive or self-destructive feelings; extreme feelings in general; feelings of fragmentation or lack of identity; and feelings of victimization.
