How to stop catastrophizing? (Abandonment/Attachment Fears)

I'm just wondering.. have any of you fellow BPDers managed to find a good technique to calm yourself down in instances where you think that you are being ignored?

I have such a bad habit of freaking out if my boyfriend (especially him, I rarely freak out about others) doesn't call me EXACTLY when he says he is going to or text me back within the amount of time that I consider appropriate (which is ...

Sodium Valporate

Are any of you on this drug or any other mood stablizers. I'm on mine to help stabilize my mood and to stop paranoid thoughts. It's helped stop my fears that people are reading my mind somewhat and my mood seems to have settled but I'm now just chronically depressed. Has it helped any of you?

Changing my DX

So, I was diagnosed with HPD by my last therapist. I decided to change therapists because I didn't think it was working out. My new therapist says I have "borderline personality with histrionic traits"
Meh. They should make up their mind.
Anyone else have this issue?

One of those people *trigger*

I'm becoming one of those people who seems to make a big deal about feeling bad all the time. You know the people I'm talking about...the ones who when you ask how they are, you know you're going to get a negative response, regardless of how their day was.

I hate it. Even as I'm talking/typing to people, I'm cringing inside at my own words. Nobody wants to hear me whining all the time, I ...

Angry & tired of being treated with no respect! *Poss trig*

So this is something that relates to my condition, but it's about people in general and how they treat me without knowing that I'm not well. I apologise, it is quite long but I appreciate if you would read it...

My whole life, I have no idea why, I seem to make friends who constantly screw me over. And for some reason, even though I should be used to it, I am still surprised with ...

3 Years and counting..

Hey everyone..

Not sure if this is the right area to post, so my mistake if not. Anyway.. I was diagnosed with BPD when I was 19 after seeing doctor after doctor since I was 12 when symptoms started becoming apparent.

I didn't start therapy until I was 20 as I refused to believe there was something wrong with me. The only reason that I eventually started therapy was because my then manager at work ...
