Q: BPD with ADD and OCD ?
asked by: Raene on March 15th, 2008
New User, Becoming EHEALTHy
I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder a year ago, and have anxiety/panic attacks. I'm being told by many people to get tested for ADD and OCD on top of that... I'm definitely not a hypochondriac, but they just seem to fit... So basically I want to ask any fellow BPD's out there, can I really have that many 'conditions', or can they all be summed up in one diagnosis, or..????? It's been really bad the past month and I don't get to see my therapist for a couple months, so any advice would be much appreciated... Thanks.

it DOES happen
You can have multiple 'problems' due to chemical imbalances in the brain. I have Tourettes Syndrome, OCD, ADHD, and some kind of explosive thingy. When you mix them all up it is hard to tell what is doing what, you know? Best of luck and treat the ones that are really 'altering' you. Leave the other alone for now....1 at a time.
