So, at 16, I'm just about to start my final exams for school before i move onto higher education. But the amount of revision i need to do is getting on top of me, as well as my insomnia and general relationships.

I find i just cannot revise, any attempt i make ends with me staring out of the window, playing with cans, anything that doesn't involve revising after 10 minutes.

Also, because of the overwhelming stress, not only is my insomnia getting worse, causing me to pass out, my BPD is playing up and i'm finding myself to be believing that i am totally alone and that i have no one to be alive for. And because i'm stressed, i find myself lashing out and distancing myself from anyone, making my fears a reality.

I just really don't know what i can do to calm down..

No

I've spoken to my mum about things but she doesn't believe i do have a problem, even though i have been diagnosed. So she won't take me to one or even give me money to pay for one/travel to one..

Well what country do you live in? If in your country age of consent is 16, then I'd say go to your doctor on your own. Say you're going for something different. Spill to your doctor and have them prescribe you meds. And your mom will never know, cause its all private. Make sense?

But really, I'd suggest getting a shrink, maybe getting on some calming medication. And some sleeping meds.

That borders on medical neglect. Go to your school councilor and bring this issue up.
