I'm still currently working on this issue myself and I've heard DBT/CBT is very useful. Are you in therapy at all? I'm working with my Therapist on one issue at a time at the moment but we haven't gotten to the lack of identity yet.
You are not alone and your thoughts/feelings are the same as mine.

You have no idea how much hearing this has helped. Thank you so much! I appreciate it. I am starting an intensive dbt program on monday... Will have weekly therapy and psychiatry appts. I plan on bringing the issue of bpd up. I was just inpatient in the hospital and the psychiatrist there told me i had bpd and i was scheduled for this program. I am now assuming that bpd diagnosis is a process and i am in the process of being diagnosed with it.
