The weekend pdoc suggested BPD to me when I was in for an OD. She had me read in "I hate you, don't leave me" while I was out on a pass. In the first few pages I knew I as reading about myself. When I saw her the next morning she officially diagnosed me. I had a pdoc suggest it as a possibility almost 7 years ago but my dad died and I moved so I didn't see her again. During my first appointment with my new pdoc he said that I was a textbook case of BPD.
