S. tells me yesterday that he is bipolar.  I only believe this partially; I diagnosed him as narcissistic months and months ago.  I don't see any of the tells of bipolar.  Narcissistic personality tiptoeing along OCD

Last summer I was 51/50ed and put in a mental hospital for three days. Then two months of group therapy six hours a day five days a week. With the diagnosis of borderline thrown in my face. It was terrible and humiliating. It was during the bad bad time if finding out my mother had brain rumors and was disowning me.

Honestly, I would try to talk in group- about anything literally... And the therapist would just say something like, "that's because your a borderline." I felt like I was nothing but the disease. How do I fix this how do I live!!

that's because your borderline

I don't even know if I am. I know I am depressive. But I find it hard to think any individual, even a well adjusted individual... Just this, most people going through what I did last summer would have easily presented as some textbook example of some kind of personality disorder.

Do you know any borderlines?

Also my mom is a narcissist personality type and borderline. Which scared the shit out of me, because I just can't be like her.

Someone told me

When did I go to the loony bin? I don't remember. I remember where I was living at the time, which would probably help me narrow it down. It's in these pages somewhere, maybe, back when The Bell Jar and Girl, Interrupted were my daily reads
