I had childhood epilepsy and then developed borderline personality disorder as a teenager. I went to the same dr. for both.But at that time (the seventies) there was no treatment for bpd except institutionalization; so that's what happened to me. Now I take a lot of medicine, from a neuropsychiatrist, for that.Also, if we were treated by neurologists, the state and federal governments would have to give financial parity to "mental illnesses." It's not going to happen in my lifetime because there still is no one strong advocate for it in political power.
