Up to know I've just used shadows for borders but how do I make a border border. Its easy to tell the difference between a border border and a shadow border and I just wanna make a border border now xD

Use Gradient tool

^^Yeah,thats basically a border.

Double Border,I just go with a 3px inside stroke.

Then,flatten image,and create another inside stroke,but a smaller size.

So..

Flattened Image.

3 px,inside stroke.

Flatten Image.

2 px,inside stroke.

Or,

expand the sizes.

whatever fits you the most.
