I am 18, a psychiatrist diagnosed me but he didn't actually discuss it with me for some reason, i had a follow up with nurses because I was also diagnosed with adhd a few weeks ago, so I had to get documentation for accessibility things for my school.
During that meeting is when they informed me I was also diagnosed with ptsd which was a surprise for me it wasn't something I had thought about, I'm unsure what to do about it, I don't even know what I really have ptsd about, i do avoid basically everything and isolate myself and avoid anyone or anything that could potentially make me think about certain things, i tend to have bad reactions.
My appointments with the psychiatrist were fairly short and I only had to fill out a lot of forms to give to him, and I don't doubt his diagnosis cause I've had terrible mental health and my family has a history of bad mental health, basically every member of my family has attempted or has been super suicidal or did kill themselves. my siblings have all attempted aside, and I'm the only one that hasn't, because if I did I know they'd follow suit. I was primarily seeking a diagnosis for bpd but he only marked down "borderline traits" but I didn't really get a deep assessment for anything, my appointments were no longer then like 15 minutes, I'm still unsure what I should do to work on my diagnosis of ptsd. Or who I should speak too
