It's a difficult situation, particularly when you're aware that they are considering other diagnoses; sometimes speaking out can make you feel as though you're rocking the boat. I can really sympathise because I've also had a CPN making inappropriate comments with me. The one thing that reassures me is that I know she isn't being malicious - they're completely ridiculous and sometimes unprofessional - but not nasty. It sounds like maybe your nurse is similar?

However, if she's the only professional you have regular contact with them it's obviously not going to be helpful for you. Perhaps start by asking if you can change CPN (without giving any reasons). If they ask why, then ask to have a discussion with another member of staff so that you can be open about what has bothered you. They might wind up trying to patch things up or encourage you to voice your concerns with her, but it's worth a shot. Also, keep a list of everything she says or does that is unhelpful. It's hard to remember everything so might add strength to your case.
