bipolar vs borderline
limit vs bipolar?
Can someone explain how you can tell the difference and what the signs are different?
I limit personality disorder, so I'm pretty Clued up on that, but not bipolar. These symptoms are different, though – Borderline – - desperate efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment – A pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships characterized by alternating between extremes of idealization and devaluation – disturbance Identity: markedly and persistently unstable self-image or sense of self – Impulsivity in at least two areas that are potentially self-destructive (eg expenditure, sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, excessive eating) – recurrent suicidal behavior, gestures, or threats, or self-mutilating behavior – Instability affective due to a marked reactivity of mood (eg intense episodic dysphoria, irritability or anxiety usually lasting a few hours and rarely more than a few days) – Chronic feelings of emptiness – inappropriate, intense anger or difficulty controlling anger (eg frequent displays of temper, constant anger, fights recurrent physical) – transient, stress related paranoid ideation or severe dissociative symptoms bipolar – During a manic phase, symptoms include: – greater sense of self-importance – exaggerated positive outlook – significantly decreased need for sleep – lack of appetite and weight loss – racing speech, flight of ideas, impulsiveness – ideas that move quickly from one topic to the next concentration – poor, easily distracted – increased level of activity – excessive involvement in pleasurable activities – bad financial decisions, rash spending sprees – excessive irritability, aggressive behavior during a depressive phase, symptoms include: – Feelings of sadness or despair – the loss of interest in pleasurable or usual activities – difficulty sleeping, waking up too early – the energy loss and constant lethargy – a sense of guilt or low self – esteem difficulty concentrating – negative thoughts about the future – weight gain or weight loss – talking about suicide or death
