Your welcome 😆

There are lots of different opinions on it, works for some peoples migraines and does nothing for others, just like most migraine drugs.

Good luck 👍

It's a seizure/anti convulsant medication also used for migraine prevention.

Not sure how it would be relevant for a personality disorder? Do you also have migraine?

Hi, I've been on it a couple of times for migraine and Borderline Personality it had no affect on either. I know it is a relatively old drug and i know doctors got very excited about it when they found it could work on people with BPD but unfortunately I wasn't one of them!
