Why does Bordelines seem to like Histronics.

Doesn't they realise they are just going be betrayed and burned?

Histronics look for attention and have no real empathy instead they dramatize.
They just produce extrovert expressions of feelings that just exist as expressions, they don't have any introvert feelings and they don't have any intersubjective feelings for you(they don't have deep map of your emotions).

It seems to me that histronics just exploit bordelines and only ...

Hello.

I read a few posts here and they are very interesting. This may not be interesting for you, but I thought I'd write a little about me and how I experience this strange world... First of all, I have not been diagnosed with BPD. But my medical doctor called me up about a year ago and said he had thought about what could be wrong with me. He said Asperger's Syndrome. I said Asp-what? ...

I am new here. I have been dating my girlfriend for about 6 months now. We have known each other for about 2 1/2 - 3 years now. She was recently diagnosed with BPD. I was just wondering if there is something I can do to help her? She is seeing her therapist and going to group sessions, and I encourage her to go when she starts to complain about having to go to group. ...

My ex and I have been off and on for many years. We recently started making headway. She has BPD and has always abandoned me. I love her to my soul. I always have and always will. No matter how many times she has left me.
Well, things started getting a little shakey and crazy, and I ended it forseeing a repeat of abandonment.
I knew my mind was mush and emotionally in turmoil.

I have been diagnosed as Borderline for several years now. I was wondering if anyone has had success with any medications? Personally, I have been on some type of med or another since I was 14, and the ONLY thing that ever made a significant difference was Abilify.

I was put on Abilify last summer and have since gained approximately 30 pounds. My blood pressure has risen, and since I have pre-hypertension, my PCP told ...

Because of recent relationship troubles and problems with my family, my panic attacks have increased in frequency. I used to use pain as a method of handling them, because it helped me control the outbursts and gave me something real and concrete to feel and think about instead of panicking.

I have, however, made the decision to stop self-mutilating. Therefore I wanted to know how other BPDs handle their panic attacks: concrete advice on how ...
