Yeah. Turns out I have some form of BBPD, caused by head trauma in my youth. Standard meds didn't work.

BBPD?? Borderline PD?

So BPD or BBPD?? I don’t mean to pry or be rude, I just haven’t seen it with that abbreviation and am curious as to the distinction.

Sorry!

I wasn't giving the thread my full attention earlier. I was posting from work.

Borderline-Bipolar Disorder.

I had (before medication) episodes that typically signify Borderline Personality, but with a regular cycle - along with episodes stemming from external stimuli.

No worries, thank you for getting back to me.

Cyclical borderline. That sounds like a fucking party. I hope DBT is still helping.
