Okay so I have been reminded lately that my borderline stuff is alive and well. And my partner shared this with me earlier so I thought I'd pass it on:

Boredom and Borderline Personality Disorder | Day in the life of a Busy Gal...

Thanks for this!

This is TOTALLY relatable for me right now. I also have been feeling bored...and it's like 'what now?' I mean, I have nothing to focus my energy on or battles to fight! Neither do I have all that energy to plan and do loads of stuff like when I am high. I am just kinda blah! It felt good in the first few days, like a relief but then yes, this boredom and kind of 'what now?' attitude sets in.

I actually said to my husband last night 'what happens when I get better?' He asked what I meant, and I said 'well, if we have nothing to battle' (meaning my BPD) 'What else do we focus on and fight together' My fear was, that basically, if not fighting BPD, it would leave us with nothing to do,. I hope you understand what I mean.

SO anyway, yeah, I totally get the boredom thing.

Glad you posted that! It has helped me understand myself a bit more!

Thanks Spondiferous. That was an almost article, and I can relate. When I'm not bouncing around emotionally, I get bored, but also nervous b/c I'm just waiting or the other shoe to fall.

Thanks for sharing.

I've been bored too lately and I get into trouble when I try to fill my life with things to unbore me like alcohol or meet men online. (I never meet men online actually, at least not yet)
