The way I think about meds for BPD, which is, as you know, a somewhat broadly defined dx, is to treat symptoms, which vary from person to person. The CBT talk therapy can help a lot, but if your pdoc is also open to medications, perhaps you can identify which of your symptoms is/are most bothersome and go after those with the medication, while you do the cognitive work at the same time.
