My Brain

So, yesterday I went to see a forensic psychiatrist with the hope of getting a definitive diagnosis.
The inital result of the assessment was: wtf we dunno lol. The psychiatrist seemed genuinely baffled and said, when questioned by me, that I was not a "straightforward case" and that I was all complicated and shit and that she didn't know what to make of me. Is it wrong of me to be proud of that?
...
Don't answer that, my dear Princess.

I was diagnosed as an Ass-pee when I was 16, but things have changed a bit since then. Psychotic breakdowns and the like.
I'm secretly hoping that I'm a brand new case; the first of a never before diagnosed illness.
'Cause that would be freaking AWESOME.

Don't really know how to respond to this, but I say do what makes you happy as long as it doesn't hurt other people. :P

I may be mentally ill and proud of it, but that doesn't mean I'm not trying to get better. It's like being proud of having any other disability/illness: it's just making the best of a bad set of circumstances and not allowing your problems to weigh you down. It's preferable to and healthier than feeling ashamed of being different.

That's a good attitude. :)
