The times I've most resembled borderline are when I was on/withdrawing from SSRI's (and an SNRI), so that makes a lot of sense (dysphoria + disinhibition) because the SSRI's made me less inhibited (I didn't care, which is an effect many people get), and more anxious/dysphoric (hypomania is what it's being called right now). I may have had the thoughts/urges before, but never acted on them, until the SSRI's. Haven't acted on them since being off the SSRI's (besides withdrawl) either. Not sure what that all means, but you make a lot of sense.
