Does anybody else obsess over a potential diagnosis when your psychiatrist mentions the possibility? Like do a lot of research or take multiple self-tests online?
This has become a problem for me. For me it's 2 different ones that have been mentioned as a possibility (in addition to my list that I have already been diagnosed with.) At my Psychiatrist appointment yesterday he mentioned that I probably have a B Cluster Personality Disorder, so I started looking it up right away and have taken many online tests (all of which suggest that I have BPD.) In addition to that I have had many people suggest that I'm on the spectrum, so I have done many tests and done a lot of research.
It becomes a major obsession for me and I know it's not a good idea to self-diagnose but I can't help but look into it as much as possible.
