Is the desire for revenge against someone we feel has rejected us a component of BPD?

I have read it, but am looking for personal opinions and experiences here.

Thanks

I was recently diagnosed as having PTSD and BPD. I wasn't really surprised about the PTSD but I had not heard much about BPD. I've been doing a lot of reading, but came across lots of different things that said: "STAY AWAY FROM WOMEN WITH THIS DISORDER!" and "The first thing you should do when you find out they have BPD is RUN!!!!"

I've been going over and over my past relationships to see what ...

So after reading the symptoms of BPD, I am pretty sure I am living with a BPD sufferer. Our relationship started off great but took a turn for the worse as time went on. She takes medication for a disease she has(pain pills) In the beginning it seemed like a necessary evil, but lately she takes tons of the stuff claiming pain. I knew what I was getting into regarding the disease but I had ...

with BPD? I'm not in the medical field nor I have I seen the records, psychiatric and otherwise of the person I'm guessing has npd/bpd, something like that. Input would be appreciated.


I have worked with the company I'm at for 2 years now and have seen and briefly worked with a girl that I thought was a bit irritating. These past 2 weeks, I have been working along side her everyday and have really ...

These lyrics seem to talk about BPD... or am I reading too far into this?
I've just been listening to them a lot and thought it sounded so... familiar...
If they're not meant to be about BPD... well they're relatable to me anyway...

People diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) often experience some of ...

Hi...I'm new here, but a long time lurker. Reading everyone's stuff on this forum has given me so much insight and has made me feel far less alone in my own head.

I'm almost positive I have BPD, but I don't have the confidence to suggest this to doctors. Rejection in any aspect KILLS me. I have my first therapy session today (had a meet and greet last week) and I don't know how to ...

Over the past few years, I've come to realize that my identity is an inconsistent mess. I don't want to say I've grown used to that, but I have become fairly complacent and apathetic about it over the last year or so.

What I've realized recently, though, is that barring the idea that I don't even know who I am, my problem seems to be rooted in the fact that I honestly don't know who ...

I did alcohol, drugs,ciggs, a lot of random sex, met new people, seen new places, been out all day and night basically.

Right, this is going to be a novel, sorry for that. Also, for BPDs here, no offence meant.

She is undergoing therapy, taking meds and is generally pretty aware of her condition, as much as it is possible, I suppose. Also full of unfounded insecurities, about her ...
