I think the main difference is that bipolar is a life long disease that you have to learn to manage and take meds for the rest of your life, whereas Borderline Personality can get better.

My pdoc said I had borderline personality and when it was bad, it was really bad, but today honestly I don't think I have any problems at all, not even social anxiety. I just grew out of it, my personality changed as I matured, but that is not possible with bipolar because it is an actual disease. Personality can be changed.

I'm doing so well these days! I'm actually happy, no anxiety, no depression, no bad feelings. I'm a sensitive and social person now. I'm hardworking and I don't even need to see my pdoc anymore. She's done her job. I don't take any meds now.

With bipolar you have to take meds for life, but not with borderline. You can get better and become med free.
