Hi, can I ask how old you are? the reason i ask this is because a lot of disorders cant really be diagnosed before 18 and often people change a lot between 16 and 20 anyway. i was diagnosed with BPD when i was 15 and now as a 23yr old it totally doesnt fit me anymore but has stuck around and made getting the right help very difficult for me. if you are young this might be why people are reluctant to give a diagnosis yet. if you want to get the ball rolling though a GP is a great place to start ususally psychiatrists are the ones to make diagnoses in relation to mental health but gp's can provide referrals to them if they think it is needed. good luck with your journey.
