Well, to say congratulations seems a little weird, but kind of appropriate. I think you are lucky to know this at an early age when changes are easier to make. I did not find out until I was in my mid-40s, though I found out later that I had been Dx'd in my 20s and not told. Probably because there wasn't as much known about it. DBT is also not available in my area; too bad, because I think it would help both therapeutically and socially (being forced to interact with others, because I'm very isolated and hermit-like).

Lots of good advice given here. Just a word from my own experience with Benzos: I tried them all in low doses and they had absolutely no effect on me. My current pdoc has prescribed a much larger dose of Xanax which works great when I'm simply so overwhelmed that I need to just be "put down." Which means I can only take it when I'm prepared to be knocked out. (Now I wonder if some dose in between would be helpful w/o putting me out.) Anyway, it may be a moot point if you do not have a need for benzos.
