I Want to Know About Borderline Personality Disorder

I was diagnosed a year ago. It shattered my world. Haha, as if I had not shattered mine already. I don't mean to laugh at such a serious subject but I feel like I've had my right of passage. I was able to regain my sanity and my life. If you want to know more about BPD I can tell you only what it was like for me. What my experience has been. If you would like I can post more. If not, I would like you to know one thing- recovery and improvement is possible.

it's like standing on a cliff in a beautiful place... you snap some pictures then take a deep breathing thinking what a wonderful existence.

then you shout, i'm immortal! then think, all i have to do is jump.... i will feel the wonder and all will be peacefully over.
then back away gently, sucking in all the glory and think, god damned, i'm fucked in the head!

i better upload my pictures for today and sit back with SW, FB and youtube and watch those crazy cat videos.....

then lie away all night wondering why you didn't do it.
the morning brings you new hope, maybe a bed and breakfast then realize it's just a motel room with hookers and black jack but you don't do that bullshit.

rinse, repeat.

until you go home and maintain or you lose your job, your 'home', your ways and 'stability' that you did somehow obtain.
OR ELSE!

@sighmeupforthat: I don't following... I'm sorry. What is your point here?
(I don't mean this in a rude way, in a genuine way.)
