Idiopathic Deneb Syndrome -- not a disorder at all...
Seriously, I think you've worked very hard at learning new skills and new coping mechanisms, and I think you've grown a great deal. It's been inspiring to watch, and I think a lot of people here are very impressed with you.
It doesn't mean that you didn't have BPD, it just means that you've taken steps to improve your functioning, and are much the better for it. I hope it translates to you feeling better more of the time, too -- since that's really the relevant metric for any sort of treatment, when you come right down to it.
Dinah, as usual, had some great points to make. (She's good at that...) Keep doing the things that are working for you, and keep shining.
By the way, I think it probably helps that you've been working and going to school -- social contact makes a big difference.
And now, if you will excuse the cliche, you go, Girl!
