I too have it...and would agree that meds are given to alleviate some of symptoms...the key is to find someone who speciallizes in it...I'm currently going through a program for Emotional Intensity Disorder (currently known as BPD). It is really about finding tools to help sort through an emotional intense episode...very informative...I posted about filters not to long ago...something that you may want to look at...recognizing them has helped...
