When I was seeing the psychologist, though, he did bring up borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder, but I didn't really inquire into them that much, especially since when I brought it up it was near the end of winter, and my mood stabilizes during spring. Now that it's almost summer though it's starting to act up again and I have no one to consult.

i think it's sad that your parents refuse to help with your mental health issues.
i have the same problem, and had to do it all myself.
it's been (and continues to be) a very hard struggle
