Am asking you for a complete advice. And my question is Wat is the solution for the complete curing of BPD . Pleas help me.

Let me explain clearly.
She is having borderline personality. Diagnosis is bipolar dissorder with depression. In which chemical changes as neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin levels changes.
Borderline is a typeof personality. Its not a disease.
Treatment is valproate she have to take for. Go side by side counselling to prevent relapsing.
So dont worry. Hope my suggestions helpful and thankful to you. Take care. Don't forget to give ratings.
