Your therapist is probablyw rognt hat C-PTSD will be in the next DSM. I looked all over the DSM5 site and couldn't find it. It seems as far as I know that C-PTSD is really an extension from regular PTSD with distrubances is self-image, concept of others, etc., whereas indeed BPD is a personality disorder. There is lots of overlap however so tha tmakes iq uite likely you have both.
