the lack of proper nurturing in my early childhood that is leading to the mood changes as well as issues around not being able to integrate good and bad experiences as well as referring to a reactive mood and unstable sense of self.
This is all 'classic' BPD, so if you prefer that diagnosis, or this conceptualization of your experiences, if you will, I think you've got it from your therapist. I certainly hope it works out with him. If you're looking for something less focused on the past, you could try a form of CBT, I don't know if you've done that. I'm actually in psychodynamic therapy and we don't focus on the past much at all, but I suppose it depends on the therapist and how strictly Freudian they are vs more contemporary reincarnations of psychodynamic therapy.
