I agree. I am diagnosed with both Bipolar I and Borderline Personality Disorder. One group of doctors says they don't think I have Bipolar, and my regular psych thinks I have both. Either way, I am doing DBT and the skills have helped me immensely. I am also on mood stabilizers which are also helping.
