I stopped reading your post at ...... 7th year of PhD......I am 46 and have been to college for 4 different things and have taken different courses on so many different subjects...ordered brochures in different careers like massage therapy....nail technician.......my identity issues is the core of my BPD. I am all over the place with what I am suppose to do and who I am suppose to be.
There is a wide spectrum also for BPD to mild to sever and not everyone exhibits all the same symptoms and Bipolar can be accompanied with BPD. At least BP is treated with medication. There is no medication for BPD unless depression and Bulimia needs to be treated.
Go for a second opinion then. You have that right......not sure why you would want to be labeled as BPD.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
