Sick of this!

Okay I have this major problem going on. I pretty sure I have BPD, pretty much without doubt. I also have OCD (I've actually being diagnosed with OCD, but not BPD) which increases my stress levels alot with BPD.
This is really long, i’m sorry, but I really need some advice please!
I am SOO impulsive. I don't know what I want to do with my life. Yeah, i'm 16, but I have no idea ...

Lack of Object Constancy

According to http://www.bpdcentral.com/resources/mediakit/definition.shtml, a lack of object constancy is:

"When a person is lonely, most of us can soothe ourselves by remembering the love that others have for us. This ability is known as object constancy. Some people with BPD, however, find it difficult to evoke an image of a loved one to soothe them when they feel upset or anxious. If that person is not physically present, they don’t exist on an emotional level. ...

is this common?

ive always been a pretty honest person but i lied to my bpd ex a lot. i never cheated on her or even wanted to but i lied about the smallest things out of fear of triggering her. most the time she found out due to her constant snooping/prying but anytime i wanted to go somewhere, talked to someone, whatever, my first instinct was to lie out of fear.

why cant i ever follow through??

I dropped out of school a month and a half before graduation (i did have some legit reasons, however, that my teachers/therapist agreed with). Now I resent everyone who is flashing around their graduation dresses or whatever. I gave my grad ring to my mom because everytime I looked at it I hated myself.

I can't work as of right now; advised by my therapist that it's best that I don't right now. But even ...

Hello, I'm a first time user

HI.
My name is Holly and I have recently been diagnosed with BPD. I have recognised the symptoms in me since I was sixteen, but it is only now at 18 that they can diagnose me as Borderline whereas before I was diagnosed with psychosis. I would just like to meet similar people to me with similar experiences because I feel so alone.
Can this forum help me?
Replies appreciate
Thanks for reading

Nowhere to get help online??????

Does anyone know of an effective, helpful forum online for help with BPD? I really need someone to 'talk' to, and can't seem to find a forum that is appropriate. It would be great if there were a forum that had some mental health professionals actively participating in forums to help keep things focused and useful.

I'm pretty desperate at this point, can't find enough help locally, and can't find anything online.

Thanks...

How Much Time and Money Should be Spent on Treatment of BPD?

I am a nurse in a psychiatric hospital. We have a patient who has been on our ward for the past 15 years on and off, (more on than off), who is borderline and who has run the gamut of self-destructive behaviors. She was on constant one-to-one observation for a period of over 5 years straight. She has cut, burned, swallowed foreign objects and jumped off a low building. She continued self harm even when ...

Friends... His & Mine

So...
Red, my bf, thinks that we need to see our friends more and each other less... which is easy for him to say, since he still has friends... I get the concept... but I don't like it.
I mean, it's bad enough he has friends he won't let me meet (usually his high school girls) and a whole world of socializing I don't know about... and I'm paranoid to crap about that, but if ...

Feel so sad and dont know what to do

I left my partner several times in a matter of months last year, and when we got back together last September I was over the moon. My moods were very up and down one day I wanted to be with him, the next I didn't. My moods were terrible and I was just so impulsive ending the relationship for the simplest things. I seen my doctor and he put me on Citalopram to stabilise my ...
