Hello, Im new to all of this still so...
Recently diagnosed, I knew something was wrong, I just knew it. Rolling around in bed crying for no reason feeling so out of control wondering why am I not normal, why do I feel so crazy. THIS IS NOT NORMAL! My poor boyfriend mostly on the down end of receiving on my worst days. I could feel him come in my house with a cautious energy. He never knew what he was walking into. I could be happy and loving and greet him with a kiss, or I could be cold and hardly turn and look at him with a murmur upon his entrance. The poor guy has put up with so much, I cant imagine what he was thinking 6 months in when I would be trying to get ready to go out and break down crying infront of the mirror becuase I couldn't find anything to wear or I hated the way my face looked. But I dont think I would be with myself where I am at now without his support and love. He gives me space when I have outrageous outbursts and holds me down to love me when I push him away the most.
So upon this diagnoses I am still in awe of how much in common I have with the BDP population. All these years I thought maybe I was bipolar or manic depressive or just plain crazy I feel like immense happiness at this confirmation that I am not a crazy person. The more I read I realize how much BPD has taken over my life. Its MIND BLOWING, Its cracking my brain open screaming DO YOU SEE THIS? YOU ARE NOT CRAZY! YOU ARE NOT ALONE. PEOPLE HAVE THIS. PEOPLE BEHAVE IN THE SAME MANNER YOU DO.
It brings me to tears just reading what other BDP people say, how their strains in life are so similar to mine. All this time I thought I was alone in feeling these ways. I mean I feel like manically happy about my findings and diagnosis. I cant describe it enough...even though Im trying.
Its just so hard to believe that I am not crazy after all these years of examining myself thought and life choices and such telling myself you must be crazy, that in fact I am not.
Ugh....so relieved!
