Borderline personality disorder vs. bipolar disorder
BPD is a type of personality disorder that causes people to feel, think, relate, and behave differently than people without the condition.
Bipolar disorder is a type of mood disorder, which is a category of illnesses that can cause severe mood changes.
People with BPD experience an ongoing cycle of varying self-image, moods, and behaviors.
These patterns typically cause issues that affect a person’s life and relationships and the way in which they understand and relate to others.
