Questioning my BPD diagnosis

i was diagnosed with BPD a year ago but i’m not sure if it fits me. i know a lot of symptoms can be similar to ADHD or ASD. i have had certain symptoms since i was a young child which is what leads me to believe it isn’t BPD. has anyone had similar experiences or could help me figure it out?

I have ADHD, OCD and BPD which I was diagnosed with BPD last fall. I was misdiagnosed years ago in my late teens/early adult with bipolar depression 2, and I was very unstable and mood swings crazy but as I got older I wasn't as manic and such and wasn't feeling "bipolar" so I did my own research and I talked with my now psychiatrist and she agreed it definitely sounded more like BPD. I've had most of my life inside myself and my mind and I've always researched and tried to understand myself so yeah. I hope you can truly figure out what's going on and hopefully find out or feel like you have the right diagnosis

thank you so much! i was also diagnosed with bipolar in my teens but was then switched to BPD last year without telling me. i only figured out when my (old) counselor let it slip, without realizing i hadn’t been told

I sadly will finally fully tested to finally and for sure know if I have these things. Even though the signs are there it is better for me to have it medically written up I guess. Still nervous and scared as hell for some reason.
