Innerzone, I do agree with you and I had said that the BPD took a facility a year to diagnose and I trust that diagnosis. I do also think I may have both.
I will address this with the therapist on the 28th to ensure that we are treating both.
Although, I know from reading about BPD and talking with the past facility there isn't much that can be done with BPD as far as medication.
I've been on new medication for 2 days...I don't know if it is helping yet...however, my Dr. said that Risperdone..helps immediately with rage, irritability...but takes a few weeks for the depressive side of my condition. I do notice (I don't know if it is because the Dr suggested it)...but I did notice the other day when I took the Risperdone during the day (as suggested)...I wasn't AS snappy...I was still snappy but noticed at least 2x where I was able to bite my tongue.
However, yesterday in a store...I left my carriage for a minute...and when I turned to retrieve it..it was gone and I yelled very loudly in the store...who took my carriage - YOU ****ING JERK!
