News of Borderline Personality Disorder Forum

My ex girlfriend who is also my sons mother and lives with me is a possible bpd sufferer. The problem is she has never been formally diagnosed with this and refuses to see a doctor or therapist, saying that her cure is love. Quick background:

I was in a relationship with her for about a 1.5 years when she became pregnant. After the first few months of the relationship i did notice her behaviour to ...

I feel bad that I did this, but I was so frayed, and felt so guilty, questioned myself, after all this, whether I really am that bad of a person or not, or at least was that neglectful of a boyfriend, that unavailable, that much of a cheater, that NOT there or Apart even when I was with her, that Unworthy of her, that guilty of breaking loyal trust and boundaries, etc, and had been ...

Hi,
I appreciate this forum, and find comfort in all the similar stories, information, and supportive posts. I just wanted to relate my story and ask if I made mistakes (sure I have) and what to do next - I would like to be NOT split black by my ex GF who I and several others, including qualified counselor, feel likely has BPD.

It was a short, but intense relationship-I met her online in August ...

Okay, so I am a twenty year old female and am literally sick of diagnosis after diagnosis and would just like some feedback on this disorder. I was first diagnosed depressed at 13 when I was self injuring. I then had episodes of depression nearly every year about four months out of the year (typically in Spring... actually, always in Spring). When I was 19, I began having extreme panic attacks and ended up in ...

Has anyone known Borderlines to pick fights? I finally completely ended a relationship with what my therapist believes was a BPD man.

One of the things he did to me was pick fights and insult me a few times a day everyday. He admits that he has a trait of liking to get rises ...

I thought that the upward trend with my ex and I was a good sign. He was telling me he loved me again. He was showing, 'though only a small amount, of interest in his future daughter... Unfortunately the world sucks... He lost his job over something stupid, and is apparently being evicted. Now he's talking about moving in with his family in Pennsylvania 4 hours away next month. He's leaving the state around the ...

after the question of whether or not bpds can or cant love, many have answered that yes, we indeed can. i definitely agree with that. especially because all i ever want from people is their love and acceptance.
and oftentimes when i get into a new relationship, i find (in hindsight, and now i have good insight on this, thank goodness) that i want it to move ridiculously fast in the whole "feelings" department.

Alright, the short version: I'm in desperate need of help.

Long: Over the course of my life I've been on a myriad medications (9 dexamphetamines a day, when I was 6 years old), and been in my share of behavioral clinics. At my current stage of life, I'm teetering over a vast precipice, and I am completely lost as to how to correct my angle.

Around the age of 15, I noticed small differences between ...
