Co morbidity

[Rainagain]

New diagnosis today from a second psychiatrist..
First one went with cptsd and dysthymia, new one has gone with PTSD and recurrent depressive disorder with some symptoms that might be part of something else or might not.
My prognosis is not good, apparently I am quite severely affected such that i am disabled, will need long term meds if I get over my current difficulties to try to prevent a further major depressive episode and my future looks pretty grim as I'm unlikely to be well enough to work again, any future difficulties in life and I will probably relapse.
Funny thing is, I don't mind that much as the diagnosis fits in with my experience and my expectations for my future.
Its Like being told what you already know inside, not a shock.
Talk about co morbidity, I have 4 disorders to choose from, all of which are chronic and hard to treat.
I'd better stop at two diagnoses, I might get more disorders added to the list......
I just wanted to write this, I'm not upset or desperate, just numb, bemused and slightly relieved that the second psychiatrist also thinks my problems are significant, it feels significant to me and so its nice to have a little validation of how I feel inside.
Hey ho, lots for me to mull over.
