They are similar, but BPD usually relates to how you think about other people, along with extreme highs and lows. The biggest difference: Bipolar is almost like being in a schedule, while BPD mood swings are brought on by external influences. What we see in the green text is classic BPD relationship thoughts. You are either madly in love, or you absolutely hate them. There’s no in-between.
