Hi guys. So my name is Cassidy I’m 19. Very recently I wa...

It is your business of whether or not you get a diagnosis!!! No pressure should be added to you!

There are simple tests to diagnose BPD. If you want to know for sure ask your psych

If you already talked to someone and they thought you also had BPD then you would have been diagnosed with both. It sounds like you have done quite a bit of reflecting which is good. It might be worth getting a second opinion if the bipolar if you really don’t feel like you have it. However sometimes professionals see things we don’t so if you are interested in undoing it, I’d see what another professional says:) Your relationship sounds like it’s in a difficult place right now. It is okay for partners to ask you to get help but it is not okay for them to do it in ways that make you feel uncomfortable and it is not at all fair for him to bring it up every time you have an argument. It sounds like he is not treating you well right now. If you want to chat with someone who has bipolar or want some support right now, feel free to reach out. I’m 21 by the way!

Hi guys. I appreciate all the replies but I've definitely done plenty of research and do not feel more needs to be done. I am fairly confident I don't have either of these disorders.

Could be both, could be him confusing symptoms. Do some research

It could be good to do your own research and talk to your psychiatrist but I’m not sure it sounds very healthy how your partner is trying to pressure you into getting a diagnosis just so he can blame things on them.

I would do more research on BD and BPD before considering looking to change/add a diagnosis. It seems very weird to me that your partner is pressuring you into getting a diagnosis, perhaps there is an underlying reason to your partner being so pushy. You should never be pressured to receive a diagnosis.
