I am over the stigma of BPD, to be honest. I think that each person with BPD is different. I tend to be overly truthful because I have a majorly guilty conscience. The 'manipulative' behavior, imo, comes from not knowing how to ask for what you want/need, and/or feeling inconsequential. There's a reason for all behavior, and the job in therapy is to get to the root of it all. I think it is admirable that you admitted to lying, I think that it will really help you heal in the long run.
