Angel Girl,
Boy, from the little I know about the disorder, Borderline is a tough one. The worst part is that most of the people around a BPD patient simply blow off the patient as a cantankerous SOB, and therefore, the BPD patient ends up alone, isolated from the friendships they need to find some mental health and stability.
Angel, I do not know enough about BPD to even suggest what medications might help. I wish that I had the answer for you, but I don't. However, there are answers out there; you just need to find them. As you know, BPD is one of the more difficult disorders to treat. Therefore, you are going to have to work all that much harder in looking for your answers. What does your pdoc say? Do you have time to conduct extensive searches for BPD issues and treatment on the internet? Maybe people who know more than I about BPD will post on this thread.
