Borderline Personality Disorder

OMG! I just read this and it soooo explains the issues I'm having in my fucked up head. Anyone here have any imput on this or experiences. This is freaking me out.


Borderline

Patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) are highly unstable, with wide mood swings, a history of intense but stormy relationships, impulsive behavior, and confusion about career goals, personal values, or sexual orientation. These often highly conflictual ideas may correspond to an even deeper confusion about their sense of self (identity). People with BPD frequently cut or burn themselves, or threaten or attempt suicide. Many of these patients have histories of severe childhood abuse or neglect. About 2% of the general population have BPD; 75% of these patients are female

 

I have a good friend who has this or some of this along with a bunch of other stuff and its really well not good (like you didnt know that). Go get help, NOW!

 

you're crazy, so waht. they thought einstein was crazy.

 

yeah I do need to go get help but i live in a shitty state that offers no medical help to their people. I don't have insurance but I'm trying to work on that. It's really freaking me out. I mean I knew i had some emotional issues but damn this is serious. I tried to tell my mom and her exact words were " why the fuck are you telling me? Are you trying to make me feel guilty or sumthing? You trying to blame me?" and then she hung up on me. From this point on I disown her. thats pretty fucked up that my own mother does not want to help her only daughter.

 

I was going out with a girl with BPD. It is definitely tough for both her and her friends and family. Get help, it will most likely take a very long time to get control of it, so start as soon as you can. Assuming that is what you have.

 

ok, before you start freaking out just calm down. Lot's of people match certain aspects of mental disorders, but don't actually have them.

Are there any free clinic's where you are? That would help. Only a professional doctor can diagnose you.

 

sounds like me. i think most women have at least 90% of those symptoms. it's called hormones and no support.

 

Yep Ive got em all except burning or cutting and sexual orientation. Post traumatic for me, and of course hormones

 

women are more likely to suffer more severe pms and hormonal symptoms if the men in their lives are unsupportive and unsympathetic. so, really, if they get their asses ripped monthly, they bring it upon themselves.

 

we're all crazy. that just described like 75% of us. Well me atleast. But I'm still optimistic.

 

Yeah your mom probably has her own problems. Don't let them affect you. My moms a pill popping crazy lady. up and down, but I try to ignore the downs.

 

My ex g/f had MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder)

 

Yeah I've just decided to not talk to my mom again. Sounds bad but I can't handle her problems and mine at the same time. But whatever shit happens I guess.
