Complex PTSD is usually when there was ongoing/chronic stress rather than a "clear" incident (like being a soldier in war), where the problem(s) were not addressed at the time.
PTSD is an anxiety problem whereas BPD is a underlying personality disorder. Not all people with BPD have had a difficult, stressful childhood like you apparently have.
