So the only profession you would work successfully with is one who works for totally free? You know what that sounds like, right?
While the OP may have overreached there, they have a point. It's the financial disparity that makes 'sincerity' sometimes difficult. The fact that in this country you can pay a $100/$200 to talk to a 'caring' professional can seem at odds with that same caring. Capitalism is fine, but in the caring professions there can sometimes appear to be a disconnect. That's the nature of the beast.

It's hard on the provider side as well, especially if they don't take insurance. I want to help my clients, but I also need to make a living.
If you're having financial difficulties while looking for a therapist, you can call and ask if they offer a sliding fee.
Live a normal life. Not wish I was somewhere else whenever a large group of people are around me or when someone is speaking with me 1-1. Not feel tired 24/7. Figure out what I want to do with my life. Stop with the obsessive thoughts. I could go on and on.
I can't tell if you suffer from BPD or if you are coping with someone with this mental disorder. I have had very slight experience with someone who I learned later had this. I had the misfortune to supervise this person for awhile. This person did not do the job as trained. This person glommed onto another coworker and made fast friends, until they had a fall out of some kind. Damage was done to an expensive item in the possession of the friend, and was not discovered until later. I suppose the damage was done in revenge.
This person then left town, leaving spouse and children.
This person was overtly pleasant, but not trustworthy on the job. Would not do the job, as trained, and the job expectations were reasonable. Somehow, though the grapevine, I heard of the diagnosis, as it became apparent that this person was not working out.
I had the impression of a screw being loose, so to speak. Stuff this person said, and stuff this person did didn't add up to being normal. Job ended when this person left town.
This happened years ago, and my memory isn't clear on some things. But I had the feeling that this person was mean, undependable, vengeful. I would not want this person in my life.

It sounds like you get anxious in situations with other people. That can lead to fatigue.
