[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 498316, member: 1514"] I have a half dozen actual diagnosis's if you want to get technical. My psychological reports are real charmers to read. I actually get depressed reading them. That sounds glib but the first time I really saw one I cried buckets. Oh I knew what one looked like of course and I pretty much knew what to expect but to see everything in black and white with it all on a form was just too much for me especially since there was one diagnosis that no one had ever told me about. That was the borderline. All told I have BiPolar (BP) 1 with rapid cycling, Borderline Personality Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, PTSD, Executive Functioning Disorder. That is just the psychological stuff. Now I dont think the PTSD or the EFD or the Cognitive Dulling stuff I have going on are genetic. That all comes from life events. The bipolar is genetic. The borderline I believe I was genetically "ripe" to succumb to get but my early childhood caused it. The anxiety is just tied into it all. Cant really say where that falls into it all. With my life and what I am going through...oh heck...just throw some Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) on top and call it a day! [/QUOTE]
