Hi,
Thanks for using healthcare magic.

You should consult psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and treatment if required.

Doctor will rule out physical cause of your symptoms like thyroid dysfunction, Vitamin B12 deficiency, or diabetes etc. with the help of blood investigations.

After ruling out, Psychiatrist will direct you to take either anti depressant drugs like sertraline or escitalopram or he may refer to you for psychotherapy sessions.

Thanks

Hello
Welcome to HCM

A lot of symptoms in an individual with Borderline Personality Disorder may mimic symptoms of depression. But patient of depression tend to have pervasive sadness, low energy and poor interest in any activity apart from other somatic symptoms. While patient of BPD show dramatic and attention seeking attitude, he or she may show self injurious behavior and parasuicidal attempts are more common in them. For proper evaluation I would recommend you to please visit a Psychiatrist for opinion. If the symptoms are affecting your social and occupational life then consult your GP and convey your concern to him for proper referral to a Psychiatrist.

Thanks

Hi
Welcome to HCM
You have taken a wise decision.
Consult GP for further advice. Don't conclude that you have borderline personality disorder.
There are qualified people around to do that.
Let your GP decide what to do next.
Secondly, for the time being, what you can do is to enjoy life.
That is what we can do without any difficulties.
Past is past, future is uncertain, so live in present and be happy.
