[NICK 0305]

Well another day I wake and sit and analyze things. I want to know why I have this disorder and when things will get better. Life is pretty s**t at present I feel i am sinking lower and lower and dealing with this on my own is not nice. I have read on many posts that people take meds, do they really work and whats the downfall.
Hope you all have a great day.

I take Prozac to help with the MDD. Doesn't do anything for the BPD. I think most drugs will only help with the co-morbid conditions.

Nick you are not alone. There's a bunch of us on PC, but I know what you are saying. Just keep reading and checking in.

Many thanks Jeffro its appreciated. Why is it that partners vanish and say they cant deal with it, yes ive been no angel but now i have been diagnosed im bloody doing something about it but on my own its hard and when you love someone and she turns her back it really hurts.

Yes it does hurt BAD!!!!! Everyone hurts when someone they love turns their back on them. That's a normal reaction to loss. But you are doing something positive. You are here. And that's important.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I've had positive benefits from meds. Right now, I'm only on a mood stabilizer b/c of the wild swings in moods I've been having. Yes meds do help some people.

You sound a little like me. I tend to over analyze things, instead of just feel. In my years of therapy, I've learned that is a defensive mechanism that I use so I don't have to feel the feelings. Feel them. They suck and hurt, I know. But feel them. Then analyze why you feel that way. That's what works for me. Once I figure out why I feel the way I do, I can do something about it.

Okay, I feel like I'm rambling. I hope I've been some kind of help to you Nick. There are quite a few people on here from the UK. Check out the chats if you have the time. Great people on here.

I know how you feel, I get those days too
