I agree with sheltiemom2007. Many years ago, the psychologist I was seeing gave me a vague diagnosis of Borderline PD. He was an extremely bright man and we had a good therapeutic relationship, so I wanted to believe his diagnosis - even though psychiatrists I was seeing dx'ed me as having bipolar disorder.
I so wanted to believe my therapist's diagnosis that I would take only an ssri and Klonopin. Well, of course my bipolar flared up a lot...manias galore and episodes of terrible depression...just the whole bipolar landscape. I desperately needed a mood stabilizer. BPD didn't fit me then and now I know without a doubt that my diagnosis is bipolar disorder, and always was. That well-intended therapist really messed up my mental health treatment by insisting that I had BPD.
My point is that I encourage you to go with diagnosis from a psychiatrist(s) and get therapy from a therapist.
