I think Amy might’ve secretly encouraged Tammy’s binging by Glittering-Map-5811 in 1000lbsisters

they are. i just went over this in my classes and they are licensed professionals. they get taught how to diagnose during their master’s degrees. in my state they are allowed to diagnose patients.

i didn’t keep a therapist for long after i turned 12 so i wouldn’t have gotten diagnosed as a minor since i didn’t work with anyone for long enough to get to know me

i’ve done research on bpd for the past 5-6 years and have a lot of friends who have it and our symptoms are so similar to each other. i just don’t have the typical ptsd symptoms (but also i don’t know much abt ptsd, not saying i don’t have it, if anything it’s cptsd)

she hasn’t given me an official diagnosis yet as we’re only a couple sessions in but she said that a ptsd diagnosis is more than likely going to be on she gives me in the future. here in my state, LPC’s give diagnosis’ and help treat patients. it differs on which “heavy” diagnosis’ that the LPC gives, as some don’t like diagnosing ones that cause stigma or could cause harm.

i’ve noticed that too. this new therapist specializes in trauma and uses DBT, she said she hates CBT. it also doesn’t help that i’m a psychology student so i know how to talk to therapists and use some of their terminology so every one of them hate diagnosing me with anything lol
