For any of you who have been through treatment or are currently going through treatment and have improved enough to function properly or whatever.. do you actually feel better and have less overwhelming emotions now?  Or have you just learned how to act better?

I may have uBPD and am scared to seek treatment because I don't want to go through so much work just to be in silent agony.  I just want to know if there is hope of genuinely feeling okay and not feeling the intense emotion to begin with.  Thank you!
