So, I think my bpd is definitely intense. I tick all of the boxes for all of the symptoms and I express them all in extremes. It has gotten to the point where, if I don’t make a serious life change soon, this disorder will be the end of me. 

I’ve been looking into meds for bpd, and I’m wondering if anyone here is on any that they’ve found successful? I’m looking into mood stabilisers - particularly Lamotrigine. If anyone has any experience on this it would be greatly appreciated. 

I’m also starting therapy again this week so planning a duel approach of meds and DBT to tackle this disorder. 

I have only ever used sertraline in the past, which I hated. I don’t think antidepressants were good for me. 

I don’t think I can manage my symptoms alone with just therapy, because they’re too overwhelming. I’m really hopeful that mood stabilisers could help me to take a deep breath and use a skill before I inevitably self destruct.
