Well, if you can live alone, then maybe you can have a fine life that way. Many people live happy and content lives on their own out of choice, it's just difficult to do so in society because it is unpredictable and puts demands on us. I firmly believe that most Borderlines would have little to no symptoms of their mental illness if they lived as hermits in nature à la D ick Proenneke, with nothing to worry about more complex than the rhythm of nature, tending to one's crops and home and observing the wildlife and geography around oneself.
