Do i sound like i have BPD? I need help...

Postby fri_day_night » Sun Jun 07, 2015 10:17 pm

Hello! Alright so I just want to put out that I am not asking for a diagnoses just wondering what you guys think.... I relate to almost every BPD symptom there is. This all started in 7th grade when I was 11, stuck with me ever since....

1) My moods constantly change. One little thing could trigger my moods. One min I could be EXTREMLY depressed where I hate everything, think nothing is worth it, contemplate suicide etc. One min I could be EXTREMELY happy where I love everything, think life is worth it, think suicide is stupid. I also get angry every easily. Little things piss me off. Everything kind of pisses me off to be honest. I can also feel my emotions run throughout my body.
2) Jealously... I get jealous all the time. If my friends are talking to other people I get jealous. If my friends hangout with other people I get jealous. I stalk peoples social media and just get jealous of their lives. If someone gives my friend more attention than me I get jealous. I get jealous over everything. It makes me feel like dirt.
3) Love and hate... I can go from LOVING someone, thinking their the best, daydreaming about hanging out with them, feeling so happy that I am with them but if they say or do one thing that pisses me off that LOVE goes straight to HATE, I actually mean HATE. I will wish death upon that person, I don't want to be with them, everything they do or say will make me cringe...even down to the way they pronounce their words.
4) No guilt... I can lie, steal, manipulate and not feel any inch of guilt. If I need something, I honestly don't care who I hurt as long as I get what I want. Once I get what I want I am happy. I feel no guilt. I also believe that I am capable of killing. I would NEVER EVER EVER EVER do it but I just know I am capable of it. I know I can do it without feeling any inch of guilt.
5) People leaving me.... I will let people walk all over me as long as they stay with me, when I meet someone who I "love" and think highly of I would do anything to hangout with them and be with them. If they don't respond to my messages right away or they don't answer asap I will think they hate me and start making up these false accounts that they never liked me, I am not their first option etc.
6) Self image... I hate the way I look, I hate everything about myself. From my hair down to my toes. I don't like looking in mirrors, I don't like taking pictures, I don't like anything about myself. I honestly believe I am one of the ugliest people in the world. Every time I look in the mirror I look different... I look like a different person, I have different features.
7) Derealization... Lots of the time I feel like I am in a dream... I am in a different plane of existence. I feel like I am watching myself from 3rd person.
8) Identity.... I don't know who the hell I am. I am always changing who I am. I change my views, opinions, thoughts, depending on who I am with. I also am always changing my goals for the future and my style. It interferes with my every day life.
9) Maladaptive daydreaming....I started doing this around 2 years ago where I would just listen to music all the time and day dream about things, while pacing around my house. It helps me with the loneliness that I go through daily.
There's so many more little things that I do every day that back tracks to BPD... Does it sound like I might have it? I am young. Under 18 but no way in hell is this "teenage hormones" this is hell. complete hell! waking up is torture........

That's certainly quite a list of issues you're dealing with there, and it can't be easy for you, so I feel for you. BPD is usually also associated with other disorders, such as mood disorders, and it can definitely make for a complex set of issues. You owe it to yourself to talk to a counselor or therapist (if you haven't already) to help you start to figure things out. Once you have a better idea of specifically what you're dealing with you can decide on a treatment plan. And as always, feel free to ask questions. There are plenty of people here who can relate in one way or another. Good luck to you.

It is worth reading up on the most current information Borderline Personality Disorder: Big Changes in the DSM-5 ..
'do not hold back good from those to whom it is owing, when it happens to be in the power of your hand to do it' "To love well is the task in all meaningful relationships, not just romantic ones"
