Hiya,

I was diagnosed with Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder today, and the psychiatrist said EUPD was a form of BPD. From what I'm reading, they are one and the same, just EUPD is a newer name for it. Is this correct?

I've been reading about impulsive-type and borderline-type, but I think I'm exhibiting behaviours of both. Can anyone give me some insight into what the differences (if any) are between EUPD and BPD?
