My therapist at my first meeting: "I don't think you have ADHD."
My therapist upon realizing I meet criteria for Bipolar Disorder type 1: *frantically looking through the dsm-v and printing out tests* "I think you have ADHD."
I think I need a new therapist :D
#For those of you who don't know#bipolar disorder type 1 and ADHD have symptom overlap and are often comorbid#meaning that they're often diagnosed together#i meet criteria for both#and for PTSD and OSDD#she genuinely told me that she would rather it was PTSD than Bipolar#like... ma'am#that's ableist#and we don't get to choose what's going on in my funky noggin#x text#ableist therapist#ableism#bipolar disorder#bipolar disorder type 1#ADHD#therapy
