But I also have ptsd and sometimes I get triggered, but it's usually over some specific trauma I've experienced.

I think it's good you're trying to educate ppl, but I've found some ppl just want to be bp or sz even if they have very clear symptoms of bpd or histrionic personality disorder. I've given up trying to understand it, lol. I honestly don't understand why anyone would WANT to be bp or sz. I don't get it....

Thanks for the info though.

I dont understand it either and I really hope some people are helped by this article as there are so many suffering with BPD when there are brilliant treatments available for it which can in many cases lead to a stable med free life.

Psychosis can also be present in BPD and many with BPD are given similar meds to that of bipolar with varying levels of success. Medication working or not is not an indication of diagnosis.
