News of Borderline Personality Disorder Forum

So, I saw my therapist today and I keep thinking about an interaction we had together. It keeps popping in my head and I'm probably just making it bigger than it is, but let me know if you guys see anything in this.
Last week, my therapist had given me an emergency session on Monday because I was having a really hard time with a family thing having to do with my mom. She ...

I graduated from DBT about a month ago and my therapist wants me to work on my self-validation, but I have no clue what it is and don't know where to begin really....I'm not having any luck finding any info on google search or in my old DBT notes do if any of you guys could weigh in that would be excellent. Thanks :D

Hi I'm new to the forum.
Anyway,
I was diagnosed with BPD a year ago, with therapy, skills training group and medication I have been able to control my disorder, until last week after I relapsed.
I'm really sick of having this disorder, I wish it would just go away.
Also, with BPD I tend to take the negative and keep it with me, such as what my moms says, invalidating statements, and what people ...

I'm to the point where I feel completely hopeless about everything so I just want to give up and avoid dealing with everything entirely. I have absolutely no motivation or desire for anything. When I get in (what I call) my manic state I get all of these ideas and hopes and start making plans to follow through with them then I fall right back into my depressed little hole again. Today I planned to ...

I have yet to have it confirmed.. In fact I only just discovered all this because of running my relationship with my boyfriend into the ground.. I ended up looking online at Psychic Vampires (because I felt like I was one, on my boyfriend).. Which led to Emotional Vampires and then to Personality Disorders..

I could tell you my life story here.. I don't really feel up to it, but.. I witnessed my father hitting ...

Hi there,
I've put the same post on the clincal depression forum because i'm so desperate for advice and help...I know this isnt really the right place to put this post, but perhaps the moderators can re-direct it to where they think it needs to be?
I'm really needing some support with something that I'm dealing with at the moment.
Is it possible to be depressed and not be totally aware of it?
My boyfriend ...

Had possibly the worst 4 days of my life in recent years/months. Really wish to end it, not got out of bed for 3 days, constant sleeping, crying, inability to wash, brush hair or even get dressed.
My boyfriend has started to be an arsehead making this even worse than it has to be.

When's it time to become an inpatient?

Hello,
Last night my boyfriend and I were discussing (rather he was talking at me while I stared at the wall hating everything about myself wishing I would just die) my previous terrible actions and trespasses against him. Finally he burned himself out and he looked at me and said, "you don't love me, you just can't be alone". So I hardly slept, cried myself to sleep felt like the worst person ever and then ...

Ok so I've been off medicines for my mental illnesses for quite a long time now (over a year) but I'm going to see my NP about getting on meds for my bipolar 1 symptoms (mood swings and depression). But I've been through a long list of medicines that the side effects have outweighed the benefits of staying on the medicine, I would experience excessive amounts of weight gain and would be falling asleep standing ...

As having a Personality Disorder NOS. But I was talking to my psychiatrist and we both agreed that there is a very big possibility that it's bigger than a NOS and she does have a feeling that my psychologist was right in "diagnosing" me with BPD, but because it is still too early to tell, she decided that it would be best to wait. Especially because in just a little over a week, I have ...
