When no matter how many times you are proved wrong over the years, you're still convinced that every argument is a break-up.

When you systematically drive yourself nuts over and over again...

Fuzzybear · May 22, 2014, 12:55 PM

yes, re systematically driving self nuts over and over again

You are BPD if you love to self-sabotage

You text your friend to make sure that they got the last text you sent them 10 mins ago that they haven't replied too. Even tho when you see them their phone is constantly in their hand!

When your computer takes a dump and you freak out because this has NEVER happened before--BPD's love to use 'never' and 'always'---and you're convinced its the kind of computer because the others you got NEVER did this before...so you run to Wally world and ask the kid which is the best for what you need it to do, and he points and you buy it and then when you get home and open the box....you realized you just bought the same kind of a computer as you had. And now you're terrified that instead of a laptop, you have just purchased a $300 electronic paper weight.

And the melt down begins.

And after 3 days you still feel 'off' and anxious.

Hello bpd forum.
I've posted on and read a few forums and have felt a little lost and I have to say, rejected and ignored. Now I have read this thread I can identify with lots and lots of posts. I'm diagnosed with depression, but have researced pd alot. I know self dia
gnosis is unreliable, but this just seems to ring true. This thread/forum is fantastic

What do I do now?

When plans get changed by someone or something, and poop you go into auto pilot thinking the worse - it is because of me..

May 22, 2014, 09:53 PM

when you are upset and triggered by the fact that your friend is ignoring you on facebook but you get to see her interact with mutual friends....

Why do I even care?!?!

Let it the **** go!
Let it the **** go!
Let it the **** go!

When you doubt each and every word someone tells you and analyse everything looking for some hidden meaning.
When you need to hear from your loved one all the time and you freak out if your text is not answered within 5 minutes so you get anxious and text and call hundred times thinking they are ignoring you or are with someone else.
When you are so emotionally dependent on the loved one that you cannot function or think properly unless being in contact with him/her all the time and need constant affection and confirmation of his/hers love. And if for once you are not the centre of his/hers attention, you feel rejected and unimportant.
When you make up scenarios in your head and let them drive you mad with anxiety.
When you wake up every morning feeling this physical tension and anxiety and asking yourself how long more will you be able to stand it.
And the list goes on and on...

Blitter2014 · May 23, 2014, 04:20 AM

When the doof doof from your neighbors car is annoyingly loud yet you like loud music...just not from them

Most people believe that a great percentage of what those around them say on a daily basis is wrong yet many people can refrain from arguing and just let the statement roll right off of them; it's no big deal and acceptance is effortless. With me, it feels like if I don't argue, then the other person may interpret that as me agreeing with them, which damages my integrity. If I do argue, I get fired up IMMEDIATELY and won't feel satisfied unless the person changes their mind or until I get the last word after saying something epic. Letting them walk away with the knowledge in my head that they think I'm wrong is completely unacceptable.

I don't know how to proceed...

Hi Havoctoria
I do that too, can't sit on my urge to say things back, and how fired up I get depends on how I feel towards that person.
How to proceed? That is something I need to work on, but occasionally I do spot a windup, which helps, but generally I don't

....when you're driving home from a not so special or unusual day of work and suddenly your face contorts into the mother-of-all sobs and you have no idea why, so you grapple the emotion like it's a shoplifter taking your last bowl of cherries...and through the gasp tell yourself, it's gonna pass...just give it a minute...and you do, and it does. Then about the time you try to fully inhale, your breath catches and you're off again, and wiping tears only when cars pass so the drivers can't see cause you can't explain it and you look so incredibly stupid.......................................then when it's finally over, you spend hours trying to figure out what set it off, knowing it MUST be something you did, but you can't remember, so you end up cataloging the entire day.....without finding it.

And the disappointment just makes you cry again.

spacegeek1 · May 24, 2014, 07:19 AM

You react like a small child inside and efforts to keep it inside don't work and you hear horrible words coming out of your mouth.
Then...... I think you know!

trying2survive · May 24, 2014, 12:34 PM

you wake up in the morning and feel empty for no apparent reason...
