Medications for BPD are typically the same as are used for Bipolar Disorder--to help with the emtional instability. I obviuously have no idea if you are BPD even though I am a psychologist, but you doctor should know the best med's for you. More recently many psychiatrists have been diagnosing persons who were formerly diagnosed as BPD as Bipolar. Bipolar is the new fad diagnosis. BPD is typically based on history as well as current symptoms. Many abuse survivors were/are also diagnosed as BPD.
