Hi Locust
I have BPD it's ok it's not a death sentence! I'm on medication & they're are many great ones out there! I have a super life. It's hard to compare our symptoms for BPD, I never had blah, blah, & blah (LOL). As Doh2007 said b 4 me you would need to see a psychiatrist for a specific diagnosis & prescription. I would seek out a doctor of Psychology/Psychiatry not your friend especially if he is only an undergratuate. You want and deserve an expert to help you learn to be the best, & happiest - You .... that you can be. It's an incredible adventure!
