I was dignosed with bipolar type 1, but my Pyschiatrist thinks I have developed Borderline personality disorder to cope with my bipolar and some of the trauma this has caused. I am feeling a bit scared even more so as I am currently pg he has referred me for 5 months of CBT starting next month, he is very happy with my pg as I am usually clear of bipolar symtoms while pg (obviously of meds ATM) he hopes to deal with any borderline traits while they are not masked by my bipolar.
I was hoping for some good information or advice on borderline personality disorder I dont really know much about this and am very scared and upset to recieve a dual diagnosis.
I also feel angry and upset with myself for not being able to cope and not develop this. I feel so dissapointed in myself now my family have to deal with this too he told me last month but I have been so upset I have ignored it and tried to hope it would go away.
