@flora_explora @Five Ugh. No one deserves to be constrained by what their therapist “believes in”.
I was diagnosed at 48, 4 years ago. And there is not a doubt in the world that it is in fact truth.
If you have any opportunity for a second opinion, go get one. If the diagnosis will help you, then your therapist’s opinion doesn’t matter.
@flora_explora I’m really sorry. I understand where you are - my daughter has both diagnoses, but has only recently found someone who accepts both that and that there are depression issues co-mingled with being ND. I mean, obviously she’s traumatised. The world has worked very hard to traumatise her.
I’m sorry you have to wait :(
