I see it is true I am not the only one having a ****** day... I guess that comes with the BPD package.

Today I have been a far cry from how I was 5 days ago...
5 days ago I was anxious but working on myself, I was exercising, eating better and had a positive attitude.

today I have had suicidal thoughts, severe anxiety, major depressive thoughts, anger, self-destructive thoughts and behaviour and the list goes on...

Does it get better and stay better or am I a tad optimistic?

I think it will get better. one thing that helps me during the times when it is bad, I know that good times always return. That being said, I have come to terms with the fact that nothing in life is static either. With all the times that are good and joyful, come the times with sadness, and depression. I think that will always be the case, but learning how to cope and deal with your disorder will help to minimize the severity of the dips I think.

Hope this helps.

I have constant ups and downs, and they cannot be predicted or controlled very well at all. On my good days, I convince myself that the worst is over, that I finally have a little bit of control and I will not dip so bad again. On the bad days, I sometimes feel suicidal, I cry a lot, and I'm sure I'll never feel good again. And on many occasions, I can have both feelings over the course of a single day. Since I realize what's going on, I'm hoping that, even though they cannot be completely controlled, that over time, the good days will increase, and I'll be able to cope with the bad days a little better.
