I may be in the same boat as you. I've had a BP1 DX for years, and in a recent therapy session, I brought up BPD as I meet at least 5 of the criteria for the disorder. But I tend to see BP as causing the BPD symptoms so it's very confusing. I need to explore the relationship with a therapist before any diagnosis is given.

Do you have both disorders? Or are they changing the DX to BPD?

Knowing is half the battle they say. I'm sorry for all the time you've had stolen by not getting the proper DX. I'm new here also, and I look forward to getting to know you better through your posts.
