New to Bluelight, need help where I can post some Borderline Personality questions

[ScriptJunky]

Hi I am Val

I hope I didn't post on someone's introduction thread by mistake. Sorry Jaguar. I was just diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and I am confused as my signs and symptoms closely follow ADHD. Anyone here have any thoughts or experiences with either of these disorders? Thanks so much.

Hi
Check out this subforum for info on BPD, ADHD, and mental health in general.

Welcome to Bluelight!

The Dark Side and Mental Health would be great sub-forums to check out.

I'd like to hear more about your signs and symptoms as I have not heard of these two matching up.
Welcome BTW

can anyone direct me or call me by name so i know somebody read my question. what do i do if my antidepressant does nix with my adhdmed. should i wean myself off the paxil and just stick to amphetmine salts and xanex when i get my anxiety

hi, SSRIs are usually prescribed for depression. if you have ADHD and anxiety xanax and adderall would be much better IMHO

if u can find someone willing to prescribe a benzo with a stim. I go to an ADD specialist and his belief is that the stims help the anxiety which is a by product of ADD. Only reason I am prescribed Klonopin is for RLS.

well yeah a stim might actually calm down someone with ADHD
