I'm dx'd BPD and I have found Zyprexa a god send.. It hasn;'t lifted all the depression but it has really helped with the wierd thoughts and the suical side.. and made me less sensitive.
I started at 2.5mg and even at that dose I felt relief within hour of starting it. I'm now on 10mg but thinking of cuttting down and seeing what happens as it makes me so tired.
I know alot fo BPD people (I'm ivolved in a charity for BPD in the UK) and the anti-psyhcotics are what seems to help best.
I've also heard very good reports of geodon... its another antipsychotic, but not avilable inthe UK yet so I haven;'t tried it.Hope that helps
Nikki
