Dealing with BPD Mood Swings

is this about borderline personality disorder or bipolar disorder? because I have advice for both I just wanna know which to give!

I have bipolar and am managed well on meds but yes, therapy is integral to being able to manage it. Have you spoken with your prescriber about diagnoses? My psychiatrist has always been the one to manage my dxes. Also, I don't know if there's testing necessarily, just sort of a dx based on symptoms. Also, I've recently been put into surgical menopause and the hormones we are trying are messing with me a lot. So, what I do is think about any decision that could be life altering before I say anything. I tend to go full blow up the world when I'm dealing with bipolar symptoms. Currently trying not to blow up my marriage... I know logically that I love my husband v much and I'm happy with our life but my brain is all BURN IT DOWN. Rather than telling him I want to run off and be a hermit in the woods, I tell him I'm really struggling so any ideas about running away are chemically based and not bc I really want to do it. Helps if you let at least one person in so you can say, hey, I might go off the rails.

See a psychiatrist AND a therapist preferably. Bipolar isn’t something to mess around with. Personally i don’t know any bipolar people who are successful at managing without medication. If you want more advice or just someone to talk to, message me 💜
