Just diagnosed

[EverMoreMyHeart]

Hi everyone,

I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder a few years ago. I just started therapy today with a new therapist, and I am now diagnosed with Bipolar 2, and the Borderline. Anyone else have Bipolar 2? I have been looking up stuff about it online. I am happy to finally know whats going on with me.

Take Care Everyone!
Samantha

I don't have it, but I am glad you know what is going on! It must be such a relief to finally have some answers.

Hey, Yes, I have bp2 as did my Dad and does my son. There is a good explanation at the locked threads at the top of the page. There are several of us here. I am glad to hear you are finding out what is going on with you.

Blessings and prayers!

Hello Samantha,

Yes I am bipolar2 kind of a tricky disease to figure out isn't it? I didn't get properly diagnosed until about a year ago so 29. It was a huge relief when I got diagnosed....I finally knew I was battling a mountain and not a molehill if you know what I mean.

Welcome to this room on CF!

My first diagnosis was Borderline Personality Disorder, but as a little time went on they found that I was Bipolar I with Borderline Traits....(which means I only have a few of the BPD symptoms) and I have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as well. So, one is always triggering the other which makes for a never-ending roller coaster ride.

I'm glad that you have found a diagnosis and I pray all goes well with your treatment.
s and es!!

My friend has bi polar as well as post traumatic stress. Owning aa couple of ferrets has helped with the down moods. Also the medicine wellbutrin . This is suppose to help to quit smoking but it dies wonders for the down moods.

I got fish, but they all died yesterday, it was horrible.. My fiancee wants to get me a cat for when I feel down. I tried Welbutrin when I was younger, and I got horrible side effects. Thanks for your response!

Animals (as an ol' farm girl) are on of my greatest comforts. Some people actually have trained psych dogs, others have therapy animals and some of us just have pets!!!.

i was dx with BP2 in Jan and I just now found me a regular Pdoc and she dx me as BP1, mixed states and Moderate. I tend to lean more to the depressive side so I think I am BP 2

I have borderline personality disorder and am bipolar as well. Though I almost always am on the depressive side of the bipolar. I'm not sure if I am bipolar 2 or what.
