I've been in therapy for over a year and a half. I am committed to it, and proud to say I'm a perfect-attendance pupil :0).
Actually, what brought me to treatment in the first place, overall, was a complete nervous breakdown after my divorce and financial issues we had been having. I had no idea about HPD/BPD, as I am both.
I was being treated for it, but did not know my diagnosis until I found these forum boards, and brought in a wikipedia article, highlighted with applicable things, to my therapist, and she asked how I felt about being part of the PD family. As a hybrid/co-morbid, LOL.
I actually took it quite well, because I finally felt like I fit in somewhere. Never in my life did I really feel that other people around me were "like" me, and that I just was more impulsive, or whatever than they were, but I knew something was wrong.
I just now, am WAY better equipped to deal with it. I work on it every day.

Knowing other people is intelligence, knowing yourself is wisdom.
Mastering other people is strength, mastering yourself is power.
If you realize that what you have is enough, you will be rich, truly rich.
