I have been in DBT a few years, helps with my BPD stuff for sure, not so much with the bipolar. I am pretty sure both fit for me even though I rarely will claim BPD, no one knows what that means.

So, many of my BPD issues have been addressed, I still struggle greatly with bipolar. The bipolar disappearing makes no sense. If I am not mistaken, bipolar is a mood disorder? BPD, obviously is a personality disorder. 2 totally different things.

I only found out I had "borderline traits" in 2010 (full dx in 2011), I put 2 and 2 together when I looked into DBT, what is for and why my therapist was recommending it. Bipolar was "assigned" to me in addition to BPD in 2012 by the VA. I am not sure why, but I agree that I have issues with both.
