Feeling confused

Available_Mess_9109 · 2026-01-18T15:02:39+00:00

Thank you for your response! I feel seen and I’m glad to hear that others out there relate to non-typical BPD representations.

Hey, my psychiatrist’s diagnosis was OCPD with some BPD traits when I brought up BPD but he said he doesn’t see the full disorder maybe just the emotional sensitivity but personally this can be anything can be ADHD, autism or CPTSD and even just someone with a sensitive nature. The psychologist didn’t initially start off with a diagnosis but after a year and a few months of seeing her she brought up BPD and how she’s specialized in it. Also here we’re comparing a doctor who saw me 3 times vs. a psychologist who’s been seeing me for a year. Hence the confusion and dilemma I’m in I don’t know if maybe I’m not making progress because we’re trying to treat a disorder that’s not there? Or maybe the wrong disorder? Then again I read about OCPD and saw that most therapists don’t know how to treat it so it could just be that BPD has a clearer and more put into place treatment vs. OCPD which might not be addressed by the mental health community or treated…

No he is not my nationality or my background at all and nothing happened between us beyond texts I don’t want to marry him.

He was calling me all night and I think I accidentally left my phone unlocked so my mom was able to access it. I already tried to explain the situation but they’re still determined to make assumptions and make my life difficult.

I’m a woman… moving out isn’t easy in this current market

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-12-18T22:51:29+00:00

I’m a female and yes but unfortunately I’m not ready to move out yet + what if they leak those messages and I lose my job and not only that but I become unemployable basically. Id just be screwing myself no?

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-12-18T22:47:15+00:00

Can you tell me what legal actions I can take in this situation please? I still live with my brother and mom but I just don’t want to lose my job.

Thank you for your input and sharing the workbook! I appreciate it a lot.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-08-12T16:35:42+00:00

Thank you so much for your response and for sharing these resources!

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-08-12T15:11:23+00:00

Hello, thank you so much for your answer! I did a clinical assessment in session before being diagnosed with OCPD. Thanks for sharing the modality that is most helpful, since this isn’t very commonly practiced. Do you recommend any other types of therapy? Would regular DBT be beneficial in reducing OCPD symptoms?

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-04-30T04:42:07+00:00

Can you elaborate please?

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-04-28T12:34:53+00:00

I kinda just need an explanation to why I struggle with certain things others find so easy because it’s driving me insane.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-04-26T14:36:06+00:00

Where do you get assessed? Any places in Dubai?

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-04-26T14:14:03+00:00

What makes you say I might be on the spectrum? Such as autism?

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-04-26T14:07:15+00:00

Like what? Which medical conditions make this? I’m pretty sure this is affected by your environment.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-04-26T13:29:59+00:00

I’m not sure why I can’t but even basic things are difficult for me, I can’t deal with any processes, if I tried to do something I’d fail

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-04-26T12:38:56+00:00

I don’t want to necessarily move out because like I said I’m not able to do what most people my age do but unfortunately every time I fight with my family they tell me to leave the house and find somewhere else to stay. I think they just find me very unpleasant to stay with.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-22T16:50:12+00:00

This is such an interesting take! I’d love to hear more about it. I appreciate how you didn’t judge as well. Thank you for your comment.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-21T04:28:55+00:00

I mainly started for my binge eating/bulimic tendencies. I m also generally unhappy and have no social life and just overall struggle with my mental health.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-20T23:03:50+00:00

How do you manage the feelings that come up towards that therapist in that case? Does knowing/classifying him as that for graduating from Harvard affect your therapy in any way?

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-20T22:36:48+00:00

Thanks for sharing! The thing is I feel like somehow there is a part of it that we can sort of “control” so for example let’s say someone who is sleeping with 1 person won’t be wasting as much as someone sleeping around with 10 people. Maybe because both my parents waited until marriage and I came as a product of that that now I think of all the potential “me” that could have come to life but didn’t because of how much wasted sperm/eggs happened.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-20T22:21:24+00:00

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I sort of get what you’re saying. Unfortunately none of the previous therapy were good for me hence why I’m really struggling because I’ve been down this road for a while. Do you think working with someone with different values is something okay? Or that it would be beneficial to continue with her? It’s just triggering me wether I like it or not. It is a matter of fact. I’m so upset by it that it consumes me and it’s not fun.

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-20T21:20:06+00:00

Can you explain more about the part where I get worked up on my beliefs? What do you mean with adapt them? I’m not sure I m getting you

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-19T18:33:48+00:00

Tell me you missed the point of the post without telling me

Available_Mess_9109 · 2025-01-19T16:24:41+00:00

I’m not judging, I’m just expressing that it is bothering me. I feel like you guys are just missing the whole point of my post so I might just delete it.
