Hi @Millieme, you're right there is such a big gap in terms of accessibility, and in terms of creative therapy options, that can really mean anything that works for you! This BPD Awareness week, we are being asked to think of creative therapies outside of traditional/convention therapies to support the wellbeing of those living with BPD. Some creative ideas include art therapy, pets and body based activities like yoga. 
Mis-diagnosis is something we hear so often from members of the forums @BPDSurvivor, especially misdiagnosis of BPD as Bipolar. I'm sad to hear how long you were on medication for the wrong diagnosis, I can't believe to imagine how hard that must have been for you! 
Help us push aside the stigma and discrimination surrounding complex mental health and change the way people talk about, and care for, mental illness.
