well once you formally get diagnosed with what personality disorder you have, that's better....i have borderline personality disorder and an
ED......i think it depends on the person....it's hard to really diagnose your self with a personality disorder.....i'd probably ask which one you have....then you can research it and find out more about it :)

Yeah ok, it felt like she was avoiding telling me the exact one or something, like saying "some sort of personality disorder".. but yeah, I'll try to ask today what it was specifically when I see her.

Many anorexics also have OCD. I wonder if that's it?

Some psychiatrists don't want to attach labels as if the label will somehow make things worse. I don't think that's true. I was recently diagnose with OCPD (not the same as OCD), BPD and ADHD. My wife has BPD with aspects of other disorders too. It helps both of us to know exactly what we're dealing with and to start to understand why we've been so screwed up and our marriage has been so crappy.

In regards to the OCD, I have previously been diagnosed with Depression, OCD and Anorexia Nervosa and one in the past, wrongly diagnosed with, which was thankfully taken away. Now they have pretty much blanked that and taken everything away, almost like starting with scratch. I'm not sure what it was, some sort of Personality Disorder or something, but whatever it is if they had diagnosed anything is that they don't think I have an eating disorder now, well the doctors anyway, so don't really care if or if I don't eat basically and aren't going to be helping me with all of those problems and stuff now. All they want is for me to take this anti-depressant again called Fluoxetine, and basically make sure I'm ready and focussed and looking forward to doing university in a month..

fluoxetine is prozac...i cant take anti depressants as i have bipolar as well as borderline personality disorder. i have batteld eating disorders.one thing i would say....prozac can make you gain weight.
if that is going to be a major issue...and would talk to your doctors again. i have issues with many medications causing weight gain....thiscomes from my early ears of struggling with an eating disorder
good luck

Yeah, that's the thing with medications they can have so many different side effects from them and all of those effects can be different for everyone, like my psychologist said they can actually have the opposite to that and can reduce appetite and can sometimes be prescribed to binge eaters by losing that extra hunger or cravings they might get or something.

But I guess if it'll be something as a chance to make sure my moods don't drop too low or to just keep me thinking stabley then yeah, then it would hopefully be worth it, I started taking it yesterday and had a really bad night, not sure if it was a coincidence though but they do say you can get a lot worse before you start to feel the better side effects.

thanks
