Personality Disorders Support Group
Personality disorders form a class of mental disorders that are characterized by long-lasting rigid patterns of thought and behaviour.

I'm 21. I have Borderline Personality Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, insomnia, and have times of depression. I've tried at least a dozen medications and none work other than clonazepam for anxiety attacks. I was in DBT for 9 months and CBT for 5 months. I've done 4 years of talk therapy as well.
I was at a point where I was just getting by but now I'm spiraling out of control yet again.
Is there anything else out there?

I am taking another session of DBT. They offer three month sessions every three months were I live. I have taken two sessions and they help a lot, but I am excited about starting a new three month session next week.
I am also constantly adjusting my medication. The one time I felt the best, I had a negative reaction with one of the medicines and I was back to the drawing board.
Good luck!
I personally have Borderline, Depression, and an Eating Disorder. I self-injury and have attempted too many times. I have a therapist and psychiatrist. I've used SO MANY different meds in the past two years. It's ridiculous.
Personally I'm going to get into art therapy which will feel more like a hobby than actual therapy. I'm tired of dealing with the regular doctor. It's getting old and has proven to be ineffective so to me it doesn't have much credibllity.
