so I was talking to a friend and making comments about my cat's peculiar behavior and he remarked that she might be BPD. And I was like, eureka! And my other cat is schizoid and my rabbit has schizophrenia. Anyone else? It could be fun....

Cacs, this is for you ;)

Ok so I'm raging, I'm pissed off :- someone's hurt my feelings and treated me like a piece of poop on their shoe and I'm livid furious and angry.

Last night, I used this energy to clean my house top to bottom. Now they're likely to walk in, I need to calm down. Otherwise well all hell is going to break loose.

How do you, if you can hold in the negative energy or release ...

May'be a random question, but when I argue or go BPD mode, I end up sleeping.
Like if me and my boyfriend fight and I go "nuts" I just end up exhausted and saying "I can't carry on I need to sleep" and end up seeping for a few hours.

On a normal day I need to sleep for 12 hours and will even need a nap sometimes? May'be I'm just overworking my brain... Or ...

Recently I have noticed whenever I have a bpd moment. And things get out of control. I find myself feeling suicidal but the minute an authority figure speaks to me police, nurse, doctor, I snap out of it and I don't know why. I still feel a bit sad but not so suicidal. Intimidated and scared, feeling I have to act a certain way for them to help me

So my question is can anyone ...

I'm always getting accused of this. Anyone else have this happen as well? I don't get it. I really don't ask anyone for anything or expect anything so why do they expect anything from me? Aside from my parents and maybe 2 other people..I have no one I'm close to. I'll hear people say #######4 like "family is supposed to help family." WHY? I don't ask for anything from them and I never will. I ...

Is anyone in dbt and how do you like it? I start Tuesday and I'm very nervous.

How do you deal with rejection? This can be either romantically or just friendship-wise, or rejection of any kind.

For me, it's very hard to let it go. I always need to know why, and if I feel that the answer is unfair, I'll keep asking why. I know it only pushes people away, so I wonder how you guys deal with it.

So today is day one where I feel fantastically exuberant and hopeful and excited about life again. But in the back of my mind I'm dreading the inevitable? crash... at least, it feels inevitable because I feel like that's the cycle of this disorder -- extreme lows, then extreme highs.

And so I'm wondering, on average, how long do your highs last? I'm worried this is a one-day thing. And I'm also a little worried ...

Hey,

Back in the late 80's I was diagnosed BPD with recurrent depression. I recently have been struggling.
So I went back to get qualified professional help (I've also seen the gov't paid, phone it in types, but that didn't help). Here's the new twist. This guy is well respected and I am told very good.

Today I went through the intake process to determine what kind of crap I bring to the table. I ...
