Ah Racer, what would PB do without you. :)
Yes, I agree with you on the Borderline. I think it is better to say "borderline personality disorder (if it meets the criteria). Saying someone is "borderline" really doesn't mean much except the person is a pain in the *ss.
My short term T has me creating lists as you suggested (I think you missed your calling). I am doing it and it does help. My T tells me "Just DO". And he is right. When I am doing something it makes me feel less depressed. He helped me write out of all my goals and the steps that I would need to take to accomplish them. He wants me to have something to live for.
If I gave up my job and did an intensive program it would be at a different hospital. And for all I know there is a long wait list. The wait list to get an assessment for my ED is 10 months. My T WOULD NOT continue to see me even if I was in an intensive program.
I think the hardest part for me is that I am NOT WELL. It's really hard for me to call places etc. It's ironic that I have to do this because I am so sick, yet being sick makes it really hard to do. Does that make sense?
Thanks Racer, you had some really good suggestions.
