I know I shouldn't self-diagnose, I am trying to get an appointment with a Psychiatrist, but I know that there is something wrong and I have some of the same traits/symptoms of BPD, which a very close friend suffers from, but on a more frequent turn around. Today for example, I have been fluctuating between between depressed and not depressed 5 times that I can count. Yet I haven't had a manic or high, yet I can relate to almost all of the post's in the forum.
I'm confused!?!

I'm starting to think the same thing about myself as well. I know shouldn't self-diagnose either but I always felt that there was something off about myself. Reading what other's wrote, I can relate this post too. I just started researching on bpd and bp. They are completely different disorders but I can understand how someone can get confuse between the two. I also notice that people on this forum have both disorders.
We won't know if until we see a professional.
