My other post got deleted so I'll just ask about therapy now, hope that's allowed! 

I've been diagnosed BPD for 7 years but had it a lot longer. I've had counselling, CBT, DBT and one session of psychotherapy. 

For me DBT didn't help at all. I found the coping skills aspect useless for me, I suffer with psychosis when I have episodes and as I blackout I didn't feel like I could put anything I was taught into practice as I wouldn't remember what had happened to me. 

I'm trying to get well now as I now have a young daughter and need to get this under control. I have my initial assessment to see what therapy I need in under a month, I don't want them to just automatically refer me for more DBT just because I have BPD and that's the go to, if it doesn't work again I will then be on another months long waiting list for another assessment as I've waited over a year for this. 

So what has worked for you or at least helped?
