It is very possible to have bipolar disorder and BPD (or traits of BPD). But if several psych professionals have dx'ed you...do you trust them?


Also, something to keep in mind is that BP and BPD can sometimes appear to be quite similar - but there are differences, which is why being dx'ed by a professional is so important.
