Honestly, I can't really tell you, not knowing you and your situation. I am only one person. I've had only one doctor diagnose me with both bpd and bipolar 2. I've read that since mental illnesses can be subjective, every doctor may have a different opinion on your diagnosis.
From what I've read, bipolar 2 is the less severe form of bipolar 1 and it is characterized by depression and hypomania (not mania). There are a lot of overlaps between the two (bpd & bipolar 2).

Do I need to do anything differently?

Honestly, I don't think so. Just take your meds, see a therapist, practice positive coping skills daily and you should be fine
Not sure if this helped much. I'm not an expect. Just another troubled girl trying to survive in this crazy world
