Why do people treat sh as if it was only tied to bpd?
Lil rant cause of some interactions I got on Twitter. Why do so many people will tell you "I have bpd and everyone who cuts themselves has bpd as well!" Like that's just plain wrong and certainly not helpful to people who don't have bpd but cut. I had to literally debate this therapist to not diagnose me with bpd cause I don't fit into that at all besides cutting. And it's literally a symptom of many mental illnesses, so I don't get why people act like only people with bpd cut?
Like all this does is lead people to get a wrong diagnosis of they don't actually have bpd.
And someone said that it's mostly found with people with bpd but that doesn't really change the point I have at all, most sure, but not all.
Like you don't diagnose everyone who has idk a runny nose with the same thing immediately, the doctor would check to see what the cause is and not immediately throw out a diagnosis for a cold cause it's the most common thing with the symptom.
Sry just a lil rant about generalization of symptoms which bothers me.
