Is it possible to be both BPD and BiPolar Type II??
I have a dr appointment this week and it seems this may be case for me and I am confused in one sense but in another it might explain a few things...

Do I need to do anything differently? Should I expect anything from this roller coaster other than what I have been experiencing?

Honestly, I can't really tell you, not knowing you and your situation. I am only one person. I've had only one doctor diagnose me with both bpd and bipolar 2. I've read that since mental illnesses can be subjective, every doctor may have a different opinion on your diagnosis.
From what I've read, bipolar 2 is the less severe form of bipolar 1 and it is characterized by depression and hypomania (not mania). There are a lot of overlaps between the two (bpd & bipolar 2). Quote:

I also have both BPD and bipolar 2. I was just dxd with BPD the other day, but had been told by a therapist previously that I have a personality disorder. She just kinda left it at that. Didnt explain it further or how to cope.
