News of Borderline Personality Disorder Forum

26 year old girl here. I'm just starting therapy (finally) but with my insurance company, it's hard to see anyone more than twice per month and that is not enough. It has been suggested that I am either Bipolar 2 (closer to Cyclothymic) or Borderline. I know I can't rely on strangers on the internet for a solid diagnosis, but I just wanted to see if anyone here can relate and maybe point me in ...

I've got my psych assessment tomorrow and I'm really anxious, what do these things consist of?
I hope it doesn't go into depth and also taken my current mood into account. I've just come on a "high" and I'm about to go jig around the room for a bit. Considering I've been on a downer all week, I don't want to go in there tomorrow like yup I'm all hunky dory...
So if any of ...

Hello all,

I am new to this forum as well as the topic of BPD. For roughly 20 years now I have been struggling with depression, mood swings, anger, self destructive behavior, unhealthy relationships, self medication... You name it. I've been to countless doctors who have said that I was depressed. It wasn't until I got married (which was my first real relationship) that I started to explore why I was just never consistany happy. ...

ugh, i'm feeling really suffocated right now. i had a bad morning. my mom is being neglected where she is staying (she's in a coma). today, she was practically drowning in her own saliva and it took over 5 minutes for someone to come by her room. his excuse was that he was with another patient. maybe he was, but he said there's always two respiratory therapists on staff. where's ...

Sometimes I feel like my BPD has gone into remission, and then it seems to come back full force.. It's like a have cycles that vary in length from a couple weeks to a couple months... Does anyone else experience this?

Recently I feel like I have been plunged back into the life of BPD. I haven't been this bad for over a year (although, I was on meds for about the past year, which ...

I missed the forum. For whatever reason life makes more sense to me here than it does outside of here. Scary thought. Anyway. My husband and I thought if I left I could "leave it" and "get past it". He wants me to be the girl he once thought I was. Doesn't quite work that way. But that's okay. I no longer need the rose colored glasses. And him/us. We are working on that. It's ...

Good evening all,
After a very intense and questionable visit from my boyfriend/lover/friend/person I've betrayed for the past 4 years...... I was curious about what your guys' relationships have been like. Personally (and it makes me want to die sometimes and also sometimes I just don't want to think about it) I have cheated on him for pretty much 4 years, I don't want to sugar coat it. I have constantly ripped his heart out ...

I'll try to keep this short. I need a solution if anyone has one...

I broke up with my ex girlfriends a while ago--had to leave the state I was in just to be far enough away from her to leave her alone and make sure I never talked to her again.

I get to this new city where I don't know anyone. Last night I go on a date with a girl from an ...

So you guys don't really know me all that well but I do frequent the forums and am usually lurking about the site on a daily basis. Anywho, I have a lot on my mind at the moment and really just needed a safe place to vent about my feelings without judgement.

Lately I've become obsessive about my weight and physical appearance to an unhealthy extent. I've always had disordered eating habits but they were ...
