Understanding my BPD diagnosis. - July 26th 2021, 01:38 AM
I have bipolar II, BPD, and generalized anxiety disorder. I "relate" more to the bipolar and generalized anxiety disorder and have been having a hard time understanding my diagnosis of BPD. I definitely believe I have it since the stuff my prescriber said makes sense. But, I have a hard time "separating" my symptoms out. I relate everything to bipolar and am not actually sure what symptoms relate to BPD, or what the things are that I think people without mental illnesses do that are actually related to BPD. So I guess I am having a hard time understanding my BPD diagnosis and what it means to me. Thoughts?

Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
