Title: Co-Morbid with BPD
Post by: Beachbumforlife on April 23, 2013, 06:03:30 PM
Anyone have a loved one with two disorders, or co-morbid?  I believe my sister fits criteria for both BPD and dependent pd.  Or is that really just a waif BPD?

Its very common to be co-morbid with other disorders.

Borderlines dont need to meet all the criteria to be diagnosed. Raging is only one critieria.

How is your relationship with your sister? Any current concerns?

Thanks for responding clearmind.  She doesn't rage too much that I see anymore.  Leastways, not with me.  She did when I was younger.  But now we live apart and live separate lives.  She's more of an inward BPD. 

I don't have any concerns for me.  I suppose one needs to seek treatment for themselves when or if they become ready.  I don't know if she knows her dx cause I've never asked her, but I know she knows something is wrong cause she did tell me that.
