Sometimes its okay not to know what help you want just knowing that you need it can be enough. I've often asked for help and not known what help I want. I have BPD/EUPD and I actually find meds help a bit. I take antid's and antip's and find I stay slightly more level with them. Maybe you could ask more about the meds side of things. Although it tends to be trial and error you might find something that makes life a little bit easier. As far as waiting lists go - they are a pain and its awful that people struggling to cope have to add it to their list of worries. I'm sorry that not much can be done about it. Just stay persistent, keep nagging because sometimes they get so sick of you that they give you a bit of a boost ;) Hope that helps you some.

I agree re meds, they always say eugh no meds won't help bpd but it can help with some of the depression or moods swings that come with it.

Dbt is usually the offered therapy for bpd.

Sadly yss there can b quite a wait, in the meantime, try to find things to keep you occupied in positive ways, make sure you still socialise with friends, do thing you enjoy. Get outdoors, all helps a little with mood

BPD is the DSM name for this personality disorder. However EUPD is the ICD10 name for this illness. They have slightly different criterias but pretty much the same.

Keep chasing up the referral to psychology. I was referred to DBT in August and even though im considered a *high risk* and priority and top of the list for DBT; im still waiting. So basically what im saying keep asking and finding out when your likely to start.

If meds help keep you on a even level then they may be worth a shot is well.
