I've never heard of any links between Two and DPD. I have seen DPD linked to Six and Nine, however. It's odd that a Three would be Dependent. Maybe there's a misdiagnosis on your part, or the psychologists? You never struck me as a Dependent type of person.

I wonder what I would get diagnosed if I went. Probably something really unexpected like Paranoid or Obsessive-Compulsive disorders. I bet I could get at least Three! Avoidant, Narcissistic, and uh, ok two.
