Most folks take DBT classes and go to therapy. There are online groups that also offer DBT support and they are peer led.
I will add more types of therapy later. Have to go now. Hope some of this helps. God bless.

Yahoo also has a free DBT class at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/dbtclass/. If you are having problems controlling your emotions, it would help regardless of whether you have BPD or not.
Oh, and if you are going to go the therapist route, do your research and attempt to find one that is familiar with or specializes in BPD. A lot of "specialists" will not work with BPD patients, will not diagnose you as BPD, and basically believe that you cannot be helped. You may also want to check with your insurance before going too far as well. A lot of insurance companies won't cover BPD treatment.
