Yes i am and i do know what BPD is like, ive questioned my diagnoses of "Schizoaffective disorder: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizoaffective_disorder " quite a bit and im just asking some advice for how to treat a woman who has BPD. NO im not putting a stigma on emotional women, im kinda ticked off right now please forgive me .

One quick comment is do not believe everything you see and read on wikipedia, there is a lot of false information on there because anyone can edit it and add things.

The treatment for bpd is normally medication, therapy ,self help, and possible hospitalization. Also CBT can be used for it as well.

Maybe this link will help. http://bpdresourcecenter.org/what_treatment.htm

BPD is actually not that easy to diagnose, she may not be suffering from it. so it's hard to say whether she is dealing with it or not, she'd have to talk to someone to see.

I know the wikipedia wasn't where you got your diagnosis, I just meant do not believe all that is on there about your disorder as it may not be accurate ....I don't see your sig as being offensive no.
