Posted by archangel @archangel, Oct 20, 2011

borderline personality disorder-- I am interested in communicating with anyone who shares the challenge of this disorder. I am newly diagnosed after a lifetime of symptoms

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Mental Health Support Group.

Thank you Fibro-sufferer. It is so disrespectful that this person continues to post the same message on everyones post even if it does not apply.

Hi Archangel, a friend was going to therapy and in the process of discussing me was told by his therapist that she believed I have BPD and since then I have been looking into it. When I looked at the symptoms, I definitely saw myself. I hope to be able to get diagnosed in the near future and get the help I need. I believe I have been spared a lot of problems because of my strong Christian beliefs. The pain that causes the issues is there though. I have had problems and the suicidal thoughts really plague me at times. Again, my beliefs keep me safe. You aren't alone and that is why I joined this site to find someone who would understand being tortured by your own brain. I feel so alone in my mental suffering.

There are a lot of us out here that have it. You are defiantly not alone...but sometimes it can be hard to reach out because of the stigma associated with mental illness, this one especially. Don't give up.
