News of Borderline Personality Disorder Forum

Before my official BPD diagnosis earlier this year, I dabbled with anti-depressants for depression over the years. Here and there. Stop and go. (Prior to February of this year I never had the DSM applied to me, I would just go to the doctor and say I was depressed and suicidal and he would give me Celexa, bingo, bango, bongo! out the door!)

So, in past attempts with anti-depressants, after about 6 weeks or so ...

I had mistaken this site as a place for both nons and bpd's... I am seeing that is not the case. A member on here directed me to another site which seems to be more appropriate for non's...

For me NC is blocking him from my life, I understand that in the past he hovered and stalked and so forth to see if I would eventually bite, I did after 26 days of NC… the disease in him finally panicked that omg I might loose all her attention seeped out of him… however at the time I was excited to hear from him. Many come back and you can base future actions by ...

Hi all.
I'm not having a good day. I couldn't work all day. I'm not actually allowed work because I'm on illness benefit, but I thought I could do it. WROnG.

I'm quite drunk right now. Trying to cope. But I'm only making thing s worse. It's not long since I split with my wife, but I met an amazing woman who I could really see a future with. But I need to be functional. ...

i went to the doctors 7 months ago and they said i had depression which i didn't think i had but they still prescribed me 20mg of citalopram which went up to 40mg that didn't work so my doctor gave me 20mg of Prozac instead and sent me to a psychiatrist who said i have borderline personality disorder and told my doctor to start a different medication so i went back to my doctor who ...

It is currently 5.30 in the afternoon here. I have spent the whole day trying to make myself do some work. I have failed so far. I have listened to music on youtube, I've taken the dog for his lunchtime walk. I've played games on facebook and I have spent the last hour reading posts here. I am sabotaging my chances at creating a future for myself and those around me.

Why can't I work? ...

Hi guys,

I signed up to read about other peoples experiences, dilemmas and solutions. I am 30 years old and have been aware of my dilemma since late teens. Throughout life I have worked on it, and I have got it rather far. I used to be borderline with paranoia and extremely low self esteem. I was abused at an early age physically, sexually and emotionally where both of my parents tried to kill me ...

Hi. First time posting so thankyou in advance for your time. My wife and I got married 6 months ago. We had know each other for 3 years before the wedding and I knew enough of her parents to know they were never the overly loving and supporting types. My wifes older brother was the golden child and my wife was second to him. Whilst never physically abused, she endured a lot of emotional blackmail ...

I have been curious what runs through bpd's mind during the push phase? I've read so many fear abandonment yet initiate it. Do u think of that person when u push them, do u worry youKll never hear from that person again, are u happy when they leave u alone and dont try to initiate contact. I'm curious.

hi guys. this is my first post. i've been in and out of hospitals and psychiatrists for the past four years now (i'm 25, female) and have received a multiple array of diagnosises. i'm extremely confused right now and don't know where to turn to support or for understanding (my family don't want to have anything to do with me). one of them has been BPD and i was wondering i could describe my symptoms ...
