News of Borderline Personality Disorder Forum

I'm just falling apart. I can't stop being bitter and angry about everyone and everything. I keep trying to think about something positive or a fond memory or escape into fantasy, but everything I'm trying is in vain. Every memory I tried to reminisce about wound up having something negative in it.

I've crashed into a terrible depression, seems like everything is futile. Things that used to help me no longer work. The oncoming holiday ...

Hi.
Just been diagnosed BPD... So much makes sense now that it's a relief. Also scary. I'm scared. So many relationships and jobs were ruined simply because I had no coping skills or knowledge of what my deal was. Now I have a pdoc and we are starting a treatment plan next week. I am so relieved. I know it will take a while to see results, but I am willing to do anything. Lately ...

Sorry guys. I had NO idea where to post this on this website. I know theres your body/health but come on, NO ONE goes on there. Hopefully its okay to post something COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT like that on here.

I either strained my lower back yesterday or pulled my lower back.

Now I'm all about going online myself and looking up stuff, which I did do but... i still don't know which one i did between ...

Hi all. So i'm trying this out for the first time I've never really used forums other than icarus project, I don't really believe in "mental illness" really but I'm curious to see what people here have to say/think. So here's breifly my deal. I'm 31 now but when I was 15 was diagnosed with a slew of mental health labels one of them was BPD. I was just turned 15 at the time so ...

a few months ago, I discovered I had bpd, and got a therapist. My therapist said she didnt think I had it, because I dont engage in frantic effort to avoid abandonment (I havent done that in years), engage in self harm, or suicidal ideation. When I asked to be diagnosed using the criteria, she said I have "borderline traits", but I dont have a personality disorder. What does this even mean? i thought I ...

TRIGGER WARNING

Hello. I was diagnosed with BPD several months ago. My previous diagnoses (for the past ten years or so) were severe depression, general anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder (type II), PTSD (due to childhood abuse), and anorexia nervosa. I regularly self-harm, abuse substances (marijuana, Xanax, MDMA, amphetamines, alcohol, anything I can get my hands on), commit petty crime, and I am completely dependent on other people, particularly my mother. I have no sense of ...

He has this ability to completely separate his feelings from himself - bury them, and hurt people, and ignore the hurt because he doesn't see it. Doesn't feel it or something. And he never learns from it, when someone tells him how they've hurt because of him.

He has anxiety, but this only fear is his death.

I've watched him use his wit and charm to manipulate people, I have seen him be dishonest. But ...

Hi,

I know the common attachment problem with BPD is one minute loving someone, then then next hating them.

I was just wondering, I get attached to people but I never really end up hating them as such? I just love them constantly until the attachment has 'worn off' if you like.

I only hate someone if I feel they're not giving me enough attention, so I get angry and blame them etc.

The people ...

As you probably know, borderlines sometimes do better if they take a mix of medicines-- right now I'm on a mood stabilizer, a stimulant, and an anxiolytic, but I am not on any antidepressats. My doc is asking me to consider trying wellbutrin to up my motivation levels, decrease lethargy and depression. I'm done with ######6 SRRIs, never again will I ever go on another. But wellbutrin is an SNRI. Anybody have any experiences with ...

I really feel like theres two of me. One day I'm good, the next day I'm bad. One day, I am saying ABSOLUTELY NO to antidepressants to level out my moods. The next, I am saying, i think i NEED medication. This is all pretty tiring.

I even see some things I post on here and get embarrassed because I flip flop so much.

Its exhausting.
