Keep trying: Medicine is often less effective than therapy for BPD,but it can help to reduce the intensity of how you feel. Find a therapist with experience in this treatment area, particularly someone who knows how to treat using DBT therapy( dialectical behavior therapy). Additional use of cognitive behavioral therapy would be helpful. If suffering from trauma, don't address til you are feeling more stable

DBT: Dbt, or dialetic behavioral therapy, formulated and developed by marsha linehan, pH.D. Is currently though of as being very effective. Borderline personality disorder or treatment is more a management issue than an issue that is curable.
