Hi, I'm new here, but I recently discovered that BPD description fits me almost to a "T".

I discovered it in kinda a strange way. Went to Yahoo Answers and someone asked a relationship related question. It wasn't the answer, but one of the comments that someone made that mentioned BPD, so I decided to check it out. Boy was I floored!

I had been in therapy in the past, and this was never mentioned to me. It would have helped me tremendously if it had been. I never understood my feelings back and forth about a person, one minute anger and the next nearly making them into a saint in my head. It was so weird to me that it had to be one extreme or another. I have always seen most everything as black and white, although as I have grown older I have learned to temper that.

For a long time I had just worked on toughening myself up. It kinda helped, and I think I am better now than I have ever been, but it makes me sad that I had no clue for the past 20 years.

Anyway, that's it for now. Just wanted to say hi and now I shall continue reading.
