Hi there and good evening as it is here in London, UK. I've had BPD for well over 30 years. It started rearing it's ugly head when I was around 17/18 and I'm now 57. I still have it but the actual severity of the mood swings aren't so bad, so I can see what people , mean when they say the BPD can get less as you age. However, I'm still left with severe eating disorder, GAD and depression, the latter is still as bad. Plus I went overt 30 years without an official diagnosis, thus the Psych Dr's gave me no meds that might help with the symptoms, I have them now. I was only officially diagnosed 5 years ago!!
I think it would be fair to say that BPD has wasted my life, which I feel is sad.
Take care. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
