I agree with so many here. This is totally me! I've only begun to see and/or acknowledge that I'm BPD in the past few weeks. I'm not sure when I was diagnosed. I've been in therapy and on meds for almost 30 years!! Individual issues have been worked on but I now see that when they (& some more well-defined ones) are all put together they form BPD. I've been very depressed and upset since I started acknowledging and reading about this. The only things I knew about it prior to the past few weeks were that it was "awful" and incurable! Now I believe some symptoms can be managed better. But after living with this for more than 30 years I really can't imagine being any different. It does help to see that others struggle and suffer with the same things. Thanks to all for being here!
