I have noticed that because of the fact that I have no real sence of self and no idea who I really am I'm able to adapt to everyones persnoality and belief system, even if it is just a way to make them think I "relate" to them and I know how they feel or what there going through. i am an expert lier, I can minpulate anyone and any situation to go my way. I try to avoid doing this usually but I"ve realized I do it all the time at work. I should get a raise, I save my company so much money in complaints and lawsuits, not to mention all the return buisness they get because all my patients love me! ( just trying to look at the bright side of being BPD)
Thanks for this!

Please teach me! I tend to take things to heart and really withdraw into my own space at work.

Thanks Im just trying to embrace the good things about BPd now instead of letting it always get me down. Focus on self love and not self hate!

I do believe that we can learn to be productive and live a fulfilling life. This is definitely not a life sentence. It just makes our lives a little more interesting. And I think it prompts us to look into therapy, which gives us the opportunity to get to know ourselves better!

I do a great job until the people I am pleasing come into conflict with each other--or my goals for advancement. Then it all falls apart.-----Oh, then there's my own jealousy issue...
