Questions about DBT: What is appropriate and what isn't

New here and have been lurking about on this forum for the past couple of weeks.

Just a brief about me:

- Dx by my psychiatrist,at the veteran’s hospital, as having a Mood disorder back in January of last year though I’ve been running around undiagnosed and in denial for over 10 years now.
I think I’m BPD and possibly bipolar 2.

- Been on lamotrigine, welbutrin (made me extremely irritable!), and now I’m only ...

New Here

Hi, I am new here and right now I am using this forum to occupy my mind and not obsess over things that are going on in my head at the moment. I was diagnosed years ago with Bipolar (it probably was for my disability hearing) but I identify more with BPD.

Right now I am feeling very abandoned and feeling like everyone has left me. I like to be alone but I have made ...

Dating someone w/ BPD & I have PPD *May Trigger

I feel silly saying this on a forum. It's scary actually. Both me and my girlfriend of nearly two years have been diagnosed with mood disorders and personality disorders. She has bipolar and Borderline, while I have psychotic depression and Paranoid personality. Obviously we both have triggers. Main one for both of us being that we don't trust the other people in each others lives.

This distrust has lead to arguments, para-suicidal behavior on both ...

Does anyone have long periods where everything is ok?

Do any of you guys ever not feel, empty, sad and insignificant? I'm wanting to disappear right now but hoping someone has felt worthy, loved properly and signficant for at least a decent amount of their lives. I need hope there is something else?

So since I broke up with my ex gf 3.5 weeks ago, I've managed to sleep with two guys on seperate occasions, felt really good mood wise, did something impulsive and stupid causing me to be out $660, was high as a kite last night on some sleep aid, then I am going to hook up with another guy tonight, another one tomorrow, and another one the next day. I just cant control my hormones ...

Resisting...no hope left...?

Hi all,

Haven't posted in a while...been mostly distracting myself and becoming obsessive with murder stories :-/. Research seems to keep me busy.

Also, did start seeing a counsellor for about 6 sessions which I thought was absolutely useless. I got nothing out of it. I'm sure it was all my fault though, as they always seem to suggest. The counsellor referred me on to someone a bit more skilled apparently and after our first ...

Ability to handle stress?

Those of you with BPD, can you handle even a moderate amount of stress? I feel like I have a very low tolerance for stress.

Quite a few years back i was tested for ADD/ADHD, because of my constant restlessness, and lack of focus. The test came back negative, but the psychologist told me that i have a personality disorder based on the result of the test.
I thought it was #######4, and never thought more about it.
Until recent years, since my life is falling apart again.....as always.
I've been told by people that they think i'm ...
