Answers:
Have you been through DBT -- dialectical behavio(u)r therapy!? It is extremely beneficial for people who have borderline personality disorder because it teaches the skills needed to deal with the crises that come up in a BPD life!. (Was diagnosed at one point and no longer carry the dx!.) DBT teaches core mindfulness (staying in the present,) emotion regulation (being able to regulate your emotions,) distress tolerance (how to tolerate stuff when you have to go through it,) and interpersonal effectiveness skills (how to get what you need effectively!.)

I found DBT skills to be helpful in dealing with a lot of the issues that came up from my past and the things I couldn't handle on a day to day basis!. They helped me handle those things I thought I couldn't face or couldn't do anything about -- because there was no answer -- those were the one I had to tolerate and DBT helped me do that and stop cutting!. (I was never seriously suicidal!.) Perhaps it can help you!.

If you have a therapist you should ask about it, if you don't you might ask your primary care doctor to see if s/he can locate a group for you to attend!.
