> after talking to my pdoc about his diagnosis of possible BPII and i did research on bipolar and felt like he said something which meant I probably had a mood disorder as a child and therefore was sexually abused.
Huh? If he really said that having a mood was evidence of abuse then you probably should find a new doctor in a hurry. Being abused may cause mood disorders but most mood disorders are not caused by abuse. I would be nervous about any doctor whose grasp of cause and effect was that weak even if, as it happens, he guessed right in your case.
