I'm on 900mg of lithium now and it seems to work alright. I'm sorry about your anxiety. I personally don't feel any anxiety or separation or anything like that. Ironically my boyfriend, I'm pretty sure, has borderline but he has been diagnosed with anxiety and depression. He's actually the one that always accuses me of cheating and not wanting him and stuff. That hurts me at times. I know that bipolar and borderline are similar but the few things that distinguish borderline, I just don't think or feel that way. I really wish therapy was working because I hate medication but unfortunately it isn't for me.
Over all I'm a cognitive healthy person when I'm on meds but as soon as I go off the meds and I either go leaning on depression or usually more manic, I go a bit crazy.
Bipolar runs in my dads family where as personality disorders run on my moms. So it's interesting to look at that. No one on my moms side is borderline but there's a couple antisocial personality disorders on that side of the family.
