Have you ever considered light therapy? There's some anecdotal evidence that it may be helpful in non-seasonal depression (though I'm unaware of any scientific support of this). Just a thought if you decide not to go the rx med route--and of course there's always that option. Either way you'd have to be cautious of triggering mania.

I honestly don't know a lot about BPD, so I hope you have the opportunity to speak with a pdoc.

One other thing I'd mention, is that some people claim to do better on high EPA fish oil as opposed to the standard EPA/DHA preparations commonly available. It has been claimed that the DHA component may cause agitation/anxiety in some people...but this is highly controversial and the high EPA versions are much pricier than standard ones.

I hope at least your anxiety/agitation has still abated. Peace...Saturn.
