Does anybody have experience of a teen with BPD?

My DD is provisionally diagnosed with it and things have been pretty tough over the last 4 years. We can't do anything right and she's extremely volatile and vitriolic.

I've been very active in supporting her mental health over this time, taking a lot of time off work to take her to numerous psychiatrist and psychologist appointments (and podiatrist, optometrist, GP, physiotherapist), but she's so aggressive and angry I'm really struggling. I know she's in pain too, but I've given it my all for her for 17 years (we think she was born with it rather than environmental) and it's just not good enough for her. They say that you should put your own oxygen mask on first and I feel that I'm not doing that.

Any experiences and advice on how to cope would be great.
