Hi folks,

I can't resist adding something here, although it may be slightly controvertial.

In my experience, people with no diagnosis and who are thought of by themselves and others as normal are quite capable of lashing out and being very nasty.

There are a lot of cruelties happening in the world as we speak and they are not all being perpetrated by BPD diagnosed sufferers.

A diagnosis doesn't make you a bad person.

Good thoughts, M

PS - I'm not saying that A BPD diagnosed sufferer isn't difficult to get along with, but they might well be easier than some people who think that they are normal!
