This was a couple of years ago and I'm only now realising her part in it.


I was drunk and on a group camp with my BPD mate.

She led another man to believe that I would be up for a threesome with them.

Then I was unconscious, deeply asleep in our tent. She lay there and watched :shock: as this bloke r*ped me, and I think ...

They're here, those moments. Each sharing one another like a river flowing to a stream. Seeking the end of all it's begining.. I too seek an end, but is it just another start.

I was born "different".
As a baby, I would scream whenever I was touched or held & was a lot happier left alone, staring at my mobile above my cot for hours on end. At the age of 2, I started head banging, until bleeding sores appeared on my skull. Whenever a light was turned on, I'd start screaming again. My parents took me to the doctors, fearing I had meningitis, but the tests came ...

i am not sure what to do at this point. i first started suffering from clinical depression at 19 which is now 14 years ago as i am now 33. I have never been the same ever since and during most of this time i've been severely depressed. You would think i had a great life as i am tall, good looking, athletic and well spoken but i have been absolutely miserable. i had severe ...

I frequent a few forums relating to my hobbies.
Sometimes, I will have a different opinion to another poster. Many times, this "freedom of speech" on the internet just goes too far, when people see an opinion, as a direct attack on their character.
I know it's hard to judge meanings online & anybody can be who they want to be, but it's always like "GTFO, your opinion is pointless & you are an idiot". ...

I have a daughter who has always been "difficult" & "stubborn"
At times, openly resentful, with a lot of hurt & anger. It's like she was born that way. Never doing what she's told & rebelling against every form of "authority figure" in her life.

I read the diagnostic criteria for this disorder & it fits her to a tee. She's 18 yrs old now & it's getting worse.
I suffer from both Asperger's Disorder ...

Ever since I can remember, I had the most difficulty relating to others, specifically, forming and maintaining friendships.
So here I am, 18 years old, at a school with 2500 students, and I am, yet again, without friends.
But the thing is, I'm not shy. At all. I mean, no, I'm not obnoxious or loud. I don't tell people to their face that they're ugly or any of the sort.
I've joined clubs, in and ...

Hi Everyone.

I was hoping that someone might be able to offer some advice.

My MIL suffers from scizophrenia but is unaware of that fact. She has 5 children who have basically ignored the condition and try to ignore the "crazy" things she says and the rumblings of her "overactive imagination".

Well into my relationship with my husband my MIL went to a doctor complaining about all of the stress related health problems she was ...

The Relationship problem that I am having is with my 18yr old daughter. I'm her mother (but you wouldnt know it).

She has made it perfectly clear that she wants me out of her life forever. The problem started when I divorced her father 2 years ago & she blames me.

Ive tried talking to her & she tells me candidly where to go.
If I force the issue, she sends letters & E-Mails to ...
