Does anyone else here suffer from BPD
A year ago i was diagnosed with BPD. Borderline personality disorder. I find it very hard to express my emotions. And tend to make impulsive decisions without thinking about the consequences.

I dated a woman with BPD. She was a pain in the ass. I have a friend who has BPD and she has her moments when she is an ass but we're still friends. I think both of them also have bipolar disorder.

@Benjamin83 Good for you. Ask them if your therapy is DBT.
Good luck and be well.

I treat that. Try to not think in black and white but more gray areas. Every one has good and bad. No one is all good, or all bad. Also it can stem from abandonment. Don't take things too personal ever. People are not jerks just busy, and have their own crosses to bare.

Also think like this about everything, "I can handle it, it will be ok, not a big deal." Also count your blessings every day. Think about good things, meditate, exercise, and eat healthy. God loves you 🙂

@Carazaa thank you for your lovely comments. I meditate every day and focus on my art. Im getting through each day one at a time. I go to my appointments and dont miss my medications.

I don't personally, but my youngest brother was diagnosed with it about four years ago. It seems like a tremendously difficult thing to deal with. :/

@thepreposterouspanda yeah it is very hard to deal with. I try my best every day but feel as though im fighting a losing battle. I just go from happy to sad, from calm to angry etc out of knowhere. No inbetween.
