Hi. I'm Sam, Sammy or Rainbowfish. I have BPD. I live on the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Australia. I live by the beach in paradise. Sometimes its a little bit tricky to smell the roses. Thought it might be lovely to share our special parts of the world. Many blessings to one and all x

Took a pregnancy test about 3 hours ago. Positive. I know this could be a false positive but I'm taking another and going to the doctors regardless of it's result.

My real problem is, how the hell do I go about raising this kid with BPD? I know BPD can be damaging, very very damaging for a child, and any advice on how I should raise a child with as little damage as possible concerning ...

I never know how to introduce myself. I always feel weird coming into already established communities, but, well, I don't know where else to go.

I was diagnosed with BPD when I was 16. I was having a lot of mental health issues on top of it, so it took them a while to figure out the underlying problem. Six years later, I've gotten over most of those other issues, but gained PTSD and I ...

I am currently going through a rough time. My ex fiance of one and half years dumped me the day before Thanksgiving.

They loved her and she seemed to love them too. She commented to my Mother and Sister that she ...

With BPD I change person completely. I do things that are completely stupid. I just sent the most malicious and hurtful email that I could muster to my ex from 2 years ago, because I remembered how he hurt me and rejected me. However now that I've come back to be myself I feel it was the stupidest decision ever. I turn into such a bitch and it is so so hard to control myself. ...

I know I'm posting a lot. No one is responding so I'll probably stop. I just don't have anyone in the world to talk to. I've just been through such a painful breakup and the worst is that he's disappeared and I have reason to believe he's killed himself. I should contact his police but I just can't. I don't know if I want to know. I went looking through his email and facebook to ...

This is a problem I haven't had much in the past but that's been getting more prominent of late. Oftentimes when bad things are happening to me-- in fact I'd venture to say most of the time, period-- I feel a horrible knot in my chest that's anxiety related. It is impossible to describe but it's so awful that I would do ANYTHING to relieve it. It's like someone's dug out my heart and replace ...

I'm a recently diagnosed BPDer and my life is completely falling apart. I'm very poor at social interactions and have social anxiety disorder and even a place like a forum is stressful for me because I agonize over my posts and feel like no one likes me or responds to me. I don't have any friends online or IRL and in the past year or so I've lost everyone who was remotely close to me. ...

I'm new to the forum, but I wanted to say thank you in advance. I was very happy to find a forum that deals with this disorder.

I met my girlfriend 4 years ago, and we hit it off immediately. She lived an 1/2 hours away, with her children (boy and girl, 2 and 3 yrs old at the time), so I didn't see her everyday. I'd go up a stay 2 or 3 days ...
