Is it possible for someone to have BPD and also be highly functioning in life? Without ever undergoing treatment for it?
For example: maintain a job, get along with most coworkers, maintain school (grades, hw, attendance, etc.), and have at least a handful of healthy relationships?

This confuses me a bit. I know I am not the only one, because I have done so much reading on this subject and many are misdiagnosed and even people who are diagnosed as Borderline fail to fully understand their disorder.

In my opinion it is one of the trickiest diagnoses out there for therapists/psychs.
It seems to be the "catch all" diagnosis when all others don't quite fit.
