I don't talk about it either, except with my roommate, mentor, and bf. and here.

Shame about stigma.

I got diagnosed in 2001/02 and got treated badly there and subsequent places.

I am out of the mental health system for this reason and doing a lot of healing work on my own with these sites, books, talking, groups, etc.

there is hope wherever and however you deal with it. It can be dealt with.

I hate bpd and I hate stigma. I don't hate "borderlines" or even "nons". Just the bad attitudes and the disease.
