As a clinician myself I thought of posting here also. But than I started thinking that pathologizing my W would be the easy way out. It would also take away the responsibility of my actions. I know one thing now, we tend to say things like , she is borderline, bipolar etc. We must first look at our failings because our W's are not our patients. If we treat them as such we disrespect them. Just a thought
