26 year old living with borderline intro :)

Hey Guys,

Ive signed up here as I am seeking advice on a certain area of which I will post in the Staying well Thread.

For now, Let me start of with a Friendly Hi to you all.

I am a 26 year old male who struggled through misdiagnoses of schizophrenia, then to be wrongfully diagnosed a bipolar + mild psychosis. after several wrong attempts with meds, and doctors/phycs I was finally teamed with some amazing help and diagnosed with borderline. I have undertaken the DBT course which I think was fantastic and should be available for anybody struggle with Mental health as the information/tools ect would be great use to absolutely everybody.

anywho, Ive been through the dark stage where I was lost/confused and all the other not so wonderful feelings and emotions that come with it. I am now doing great and continuing to learn/use new tools and gather as much helpful information as possible. I am much better prepared for the troubled days than I have ever been before.

anywho, I hope to speak with you all over the days

Hi Shannonjacob

Welcome to the bb forum and thanks for sharing your story.

I'm sorry that you have struggled so hard, not only with your illness but with the system. I can't even imagine how frustrating it must have been for you working through the process to get a correct diagnosis.

You should be so proud of yourself for your determination to find the truth and your commitment to heal. You are really an inspiration.

I look forward to seeing you around the forum
