hello ! i have BPD and ADHD symptoms and was diagnosed depression and anxiety instead. I was put on SSRIs instead of a mood stabilizer. I have periods of psychosis where I am completely nonverbal which has been scaring. my mental health has been deteriorating and i’m feeling more and more consumed by it. Does anyone else have experience coping with the symptoms of ADHD and BPD combined? Also anyone who has symptoms that only get worse overtime

Thank you so much for sharing, I would highly recommend talking to your doctor about how & what you are feeling.

I’ve experienced psychosis and I too have BpD. The best thing to do is splash cold water on your face when you get psychosis my psychologist advised me to do the same. It grounds you. I hope this helps.

@goollmooodmN You are going through a lot right now. Coping with ADHD and BPD symptoms can be difficult. It appears that your doctor is not providing you with adequate help, particularly in the form of misdiagnoses and incorrect drugs. Experiencing psychosis and feeling nonverbal must be extremely distressing. Have you spoken with your doctor about these symptoms? Connecting with others who share similar experiences may also be beneficial. Remember, it's appropriate to speak up for yourself and get the help you require. You are not alone in this...
