News of Borderline Personality Disorder Forum

To fellow borderlines, there is a male member on this forum who targets borderline women. He finds our emotional pain and anguish exciting and likes to masturbate over it. I learned this the hard way in private messaging. I don't want any other women to have to put up with this predation. Be careful if a forum member private messages you *mod edit*.

It took my psychiatrist 5 years to figure out what I have and I've had every therapist toss me out of their office since I've been diagnosed. What's with the stigmas about BPD I can't even get a girl to go on a second date with me because I have BPD. No one in my family on father or mother side even has this disorder I've had everyone tell me that it's induced by severe ...

I have BPD but manly nothing affects me but relationships but especially the end. Giving the story below I am actually fairly pleased with myself on how I handled it for once. The ending has me thrown for loop however.

I truly could use some words of encouragement.

This has been a tough month and even tougher past few days.

I have to accept letting go for good with someone who we still have strong ...

Hi all! I'm Evan.

I currently do not have an official diagnoses, but I strongly suspect (and so do other medical professionals) that I have BPD, or traits of. That being said I have a question.

It feels like I've generally lost my empathy and strong emotions. I used to have the strongest feelings, that gave me pain in my chest and felt horribly intense. A couple months ago, I don't remember exactly what happened, ...

I was married to a borderline for 8 years, although I did not realize it at the time. It was a roller coaster of extremes that became too much for me over time. I loved her deeply, but she often took major offense at little or nothing. This would lead to screaming and crying for hours! I was either the best or worst husband in the world. She was unfaithful a couple of times. She ...

Hi everyone! I'm Mia and I have a very serious problem, so any help is appreciated.

I've gotten into a new relationship 3 months ago. He was an ex and as soon as we started talking again it became clear we wanted to be together. So he broke up his long term (several years) relationship to be able to be with me. He even helped me get out of my abusive home and now we're ...

And I live in this bubble that everyone else is the problem and not me.

"I'm still here."

That phrase has made me angry for years but someone came out with it. Laid down everything and I can see why they should not be around me. Not for the reasons why I thought but because I have this sense of entitlement like its okay for me to act like this and you should just take ...

Whenever I hear this statement, I just wonder does my problems not matter? I believe that there are no "worst" problems. Everyone has problems and everyone has different reactions to these problems. I wish people would just not say that statement. I feel guilty for having BPD when someone tells me that other people are going through worst. Do I not matter too? It hurts a lot... The fact that i'm hypersensitive does not help ...

A lot of family have trouble seeing that I am in pain because it is all emotional. They wonder why I cut myself sometimes but it is mostly to distract myself from the overwhelming wave of emotions that come up and just focus on the physical pain. Everyone seems to think it is manipulative and attention-seeking but I just want to feel relieved and actually feel in control of something. I feel mad because it ...
