Yes: If you feel safe with your counselor then i would recommend talking to him or her about the differences between borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder and whether you might have one or the other or both. These two diagnoses are frequently confused and mistaken for each other because the names sound similar and they have overlapping symptoms.

Disorders: Both of these disorders are VERY serious and should only be fully evaluated for by a psychiatrist. Do not try to diagnose yourself with these diagnoses or any others.
