I have been doing DBT for several months now and I am also doing a DBT group. It is very effective and helps tremendously. It gives you tools to cope, be more independent and manage how intense emotions can get when you have BPD. I have heard and read that DBT is the most effective treatment for BPD. It helps the most (I think) if you have a therapist who is trained with DBT. I have made the most progress with my DBT therapist.
Also intensely exercising for at least 30 minutes each day and doing yoga has dramatically improved my symptoms of BPD and I feel like a different person than when I wasn’t as active.
