Since there was some fighting on the last one.

Anyway, lately have been working with a therapist that specailizes in mother and daughter ( borderline ) relations and have realized my mother has BPD traits.

This has been very hard for me to grasp as my whole life I am realizing was her not loving me.

In my eyes I like to think my mother as a perfect stable being that I try to live ...

There's a part timer at my work who has BPD, I'm one of the few people that knows this. Now even though she's a part timer, she has a level of authority. She's basically a supervisor and whenever she's in, she's in charge of the people in her department. Her behaviour is causing grief for the part timers that work for her.

I sometimes recall a story my ex told me.

See, I very much like martial arts, and the more severe the better. This is why I ideally prefer Muay Thai; but good Muay Thai classes are hard to come by here and kick boxing is a great way to complement and supplement Muay Thai I find.

So, I'll be getting a 'loan', a decent one as well. Well, decent to me all things considered. Decent enough that I've realized I could go back up to 400mg Lamictal -- I'd gone down to 200mg for financial reasons only.

Hi guys,

I'm new here, as you may have guessed... I've come here because I have not been diagnosed with BPD but have been reading about it following several episodes over the last few days, because I have grown tired and somewhat confused about the way some situations make me feel.. I had never heard of BPD before, but to my surprise, reading the symptoms and ways in which it manifests itself in everyday life ...

I was thinking how many mental health professionals view us as pains in the arses. If it was called what it is "Abused Child Disorder", I wonder how many mental health professionals would be so rejecting of us abused children who have grown up?

Hi,

I am the one with BPD. I've been in a relationship for a little less than a year, and since about the third month we were together, we haven't been doing well. We communicate in a completely different way. He wants more of an open relationship than I do and me with all my BPD issues, I'm finding that my level of functionality has taken a nose dive, especially in the past couple of ...

I sit in my living room looking around. I see the things I collect, the things I love. Do they reflect me? I don't know.

I have, in so many ways, a life most people would crave. I have an amazing partner, she is smart, funny, has an amazing job with power and prestige and she is absolutely stunning (the woman is truly a goddess, she is the woman that hundreds of men at her ...
