i have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and for the longest time (like 5 years) i’ve been questioning wether or not i have BPD or some kind of other condition also, i’ve dismissed this idea many times but recently i’ve been genuinely questioning it. most of my symptoms line up with bipolar but there’s a lot of symptoms that don’t really have to do with bipolar. it could be just my ptsd or my medications that are not working properly but it feels more than that, even when i’m not having an episode i rarely feel actually stable and i always have this feeling like something is missing and i am empty, i have very complicated attachment issues that would take paragraphs to actually go into detail about, my moods are constantly up and down everyday and then i’ll have episodes of mania and depression on top of that. there are a LOT more reasons i feel it may be something more like bpd or something else. i just wanted to ask people who have bipolar and borderline what they think and what their experience is like having both to get an outside perspective ( i don’t have a psychiatrist yet)

Mood swings

I feel this really weird version of sadness, that I don't quite know how to explain. Its this very empty feeling, and I can feel my mind and body need something but I can't pin down what I need as it isn't a physical need, but an emotional one. I will start crying but its more me sitting in silence with tears running down my face rather than a more active way of crying. I don't know what this is and I don't know how to help it. It usually comes out at night. I'ts making me extremely uncomfortable but I have no idea how to help myself, this is one of the rare times I truly am clueless. I needed to get this out of my mind.

Does anyone have any advice on how to quit smoking? I've tried patches, gum, hypnosis, and I'm on Wellbutrin. Nothing seems to work for me. When I don't smoke, my mental health issues get so much worse.

I've been diagnosed with BPD twice but some things don't add up - like the "fear of abandonment" must show up differently for me. Instead of fear, instead of begging people to stay or making a scene, I get cold, distant, and it's more like a "I've accepted you're definitely gonna leave eventually so, whatever." Of course this is in illogical situations and I don't WANT people to leave/ignore me, cuz if they do, I explode but not necessarily with "PLEASE STAY". I've found comfort in being alone since childhood so, maybe that's why?

my current diagnosis is bpd, ocd, social anxiety, afrid.. but over the past few months my sensory issues have been getting worse… I’ve been researching ASD and it’s resonating a lot, has anyone had similar symptoms to ASD but had a BPD diagnosis?? I’m scared to bring it up to my DBT therapist :/
