I have anxiety and depression but I think I might have borderline personality disorder as well, I'd like to get officially diagnosed but I can't afford therapy
I've felt miserable lately and don't know what to do to help myself im scared I'll push others away cause of how I'm feeling
Does anyone with bpd know about what getting a diagnosis is like?

Hello #1 👼
I was diagnosed with complex PTSD, borderline and bipolar in Feb 2019 (just over a year ago). A few people have suggested aome great books... including runninf on empty... this has been very nurturing amd helping me to understand how I am unable to regulate and why... and in a non-judgemental way to myself, my parents and those around me. Such books might be a cheaper way whilst therapy is unaffordable.... also, right now with telehealth and a mental health care plan, its free..... and additionally, I've borrowed some great books from the library- free also
