**Quick back-story**: I was molested when I was very young, then raped in my teenage years so I attempted suicide and ended up in the hospital. I was diagnosed with Depression and Anxiety, and tried pills and therapy for years. Neither of those things ever seemed to resolve anything, so I went to be re-diagnosed. I was told then that I was suffering from Bi-Polar disorder. They changed my medication and therapy. After 6 months of bi-polar medication and therapy, my condition actually got worse so I went off medication.


**Fast-forward to now**: I hit rock bottom for eight months and then went back to another psychiatrist to be re-evaluated and they diagnosed me with BPD. They offered medication but I'm not sure if I want to go down that route. Are there really even any medications for BPD? I was told they couldn't discuss medication until I officially agreed to be treated. Also, how do I explain the disorder to my boyfriend? He is very supportive and has told me he wants to be part of my treatment but I'm not sure exactly how to explain the disorder to him or what kind of treatment I'm looking for. 

Any advice?
