I fear this is me...........
I have been always been depressed no matter what. Always wanting to die even on my clear days. Emotions up and down from daily to weekly. I just never know what mood will be out. I have bulimia, complex PTSD and T says a mild case of BPD but from what I have been reading I actually think I might have bipolar. This is why I am afraid to see a psychiatrist. I do not want meds but I also do not want to feel like this for the rest of my life.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
