One positive I learned with my diagnosis...certain behaviors I did repeatedly were now attributable to my BPD, so I could stop beating myself up for making the same mistakes......some comfort....Like I could say..."you know why you do this & what is the usual outcome
BPD can also mimick the symptoms of Bipolar disorder
