axis two features

Posted by deerock on April 27, 2009, at 12:32:18

i asked my therapist to tell me my diagnosis. she wouldnt tell me, she just kept asking questions. finally i wrote her a letter asking her to tell me my diagnosis and also told her a few things that were bothering me.

in her response to me, she wrote "dysthimia, anxiety,and some axis two features."
I have no idea which axis two features she is referring to. This really pisses me off though. I feel like she is telling me there is something wrong with me. Personality disorders cannot be fixed as far as I have read.

Why is she telling me I have axis two features? Its not enough to say I have a mood disorder? She has to say there is something *else" going on?

I will speak to her about my concerns. This really makes me feel judged.

Can anyone relate to this? What the hell does that mean, even, "axis two features." such a pain in the butt hearing this stuff.
