Hi Cattayle10,
Welcome to PC. This is a great community with lots of supportive and kind people.
You must be overwhelmed with your new diagnosis. Did your doctor make any treatment recommendations? I personally have BPD, and have found therapy to be very helpful, as well as a supportive network.
I found this site which may help you during your travels. I'm sorry I don't have more to offer, but please keep us updated!
