I can relate to certain aspects. I've been fighting condition after condition almost all of my life, which can be very emotionally draining. I have 2 kids, which my ex-hub has primary custody of. I do the best that I can. Which, unfortunately, isn't good enough. That's very hard for me to accept!

I've had to go into the hospital a few times in the last couple of years, for physical and emotional causes. I don't have an ED, but I have a tendency to lose weight whenever I'm hospitalized. Fighting an ED must be just horrible ~ as there are serious physical complications. I don't know any tips on helping you get through that. Have you posted any Q's in that forum? Just a thought that others might have techniques that worked for them.

You aren't alone. Many of us are fighting consequences of having BPD. Not like anyone wanted this condition, of course. It's so unfair! BUT, we have to remind ourselves that we're now adults. We do have control over the here & now. We don't have to keep re-living and torturing ourselves with self-blame and self-hate. A big something for us to work towards in our lives now.

sent your way!
