I was diagnosed with BPD and ADHD here about a year ago. I have been on Lithium and Divalproex (as an antidepressant and anticonvulsant). It has been a wonderful year for the most part. The two big issues I have though are when I have mood swings, I get very very angry still, and I really hate it. Usually there is anxiety as my trigger.


To add to that, I also have ADHD which is untreated because we are trying to get the BPD under control and we can not put me on meds for ADHD as it makes me a very mean person.


These issues in combination of feeling that what I have to say does not matter really is getting to me. I have gone through a lot of stress with my fiance having a miscarriage and I am trying to be supportive but have family interfering constantly. I am 39 & my fiance is 41, so I am a little hacked...


Anyhow, I just needed to dump so I can sleep.
