Today has been a bad day. A meltdown at swim lessons meant my son was pulled kicking and screaming from the pool. He has spent the afternoon in his room. I was up at 4 am and am exhausted but afraid to sleep and not sleep again tonight.

I used to try that, drinking doesn't really make anything go away.

I am trying to decide my direction...the one I truly want...not the many facades my brain so eagerly creates for me.

Thank you, love I'm feeling a little better today. I just wish people would think before they say things, especially in this forum.

Having issues with my partner that are causing me to push him away. Just the site or sound of him gets on my nerves lately.
At least I'm finally over my cold.
On the bright side, I think I might have made a new friend. I can never be sure at first though, sometimes the BPD causes me to over think things.
Hope everyone is having a good day.

Just one of those days, I can already tell I didn't want to wake up this morning. At least I have the energy to sing, but its all negative energy. I got left out of seeing my family yesterday and was in a lot of (emotional) pain. I wish I was as good as the shell/mask that I can put on in the presence of people I don't know/trust, I wish I looked as good as my idealized version of myself, I wish I was more secure/stable emotionally. The only stability is instability, the only security is insecurity.

Today is Remembrance day in Canada. In an hour my family will observe 2 minutes of silence while we remember those that have served to make our country free. I get emotional remembering that my grandfathers fought in WWII, my one grandma worked in an ammunition factory.

Today is about them. Lest we forget.

I feel ya on the over thinking thing. I feel like I spend most of the day over analyzing, every day. Sorry for your partner issues...is it possible that you not feeling well lately may be causing some friction? Sometimes BPD has a way of tossing our own icky feelings onto others.

I wasted away the day in bed...not sure why I was so tired. Spent most of the day pissed off at myself cuz I slept the day away. I had to skip my meds cuz it was too late in the day when I woke. It hasn't been a bad day per se, it's just been unproductive when it should've been productive. Mad at myself I guess.

Been a mix of punishing and rewarding myself for the last 2 days since my last update. I want to try to make today a good day, and accomplish a lot, so I can feel good about myself for a short time again. Right now I feel like a total screw up. Something triggered me the other day and I went crazy for a couple days and did some things I regret now.

Aww don't let people get to you. While they are entitled to their view and opinions, it is just an opinion and not necessarily a reality. I'm not sure which post it is but anyway... people can be troll-like in their behavior sometimes and not very supportive.

Kind of/sort of anxious, but not unreasonably. I have a big chunk of change to pay by the end of December so I can move to an apartment finally. I hve no furniture at all to move in with, I have a big electric payment to make for them to turn it on.. Christmas is coming.. not that I can do much of anything... which stresses me out, since I have two pre-teen boys. I mean they are taken care of, but I like giving them gifts and it will suck this year. :/

I'm not freaking out but mildly anxious about all of it.

Kind of a bit distant from the BPD forum lately... Feel not a part of it anymore. But then I don't really feel like I belong anywhere or have anything much to say...apart from my normal whinge.

You do belong, and as someone who's been involved with this site for longer than my profile suggests, it's quite normal to feel out of the loop at times.

It's such a transient place - people come and go, other's feel they're ready to move on or feel like they've made as much of this place as they can. It can make for quite an unsettled environment at times. But nobody will think wrongly of you for wanting a bit of space or voicing any concerns that you have. It's all valid, all worthy of care and attention. Do as you see fit, we'll understand
Thanks for this!

Went to T today and was actually able to cry there and told her everything that happened, she didn't punish me for being a bad patient and relapsing. What a good therapist still hurting, but I think hurting is fine, as long as I'm not hurting myself.

Today is day 7 of working straight. I'm not off until the 28th. Can feel my mind already trying to turn in to a pile of goo that can't stop thinking. It'll be interesting.

Still feeling very depressed despite almost 2 months on 300 mg of wellbutrin
Met with my New therapist today. (on number 9 or 10 )
She seemed nice. I cried during our session. I rarely ever cry during therapy but this time I cried on my first freaking visit.
She seems nice. Compassionate.
She wants me seen by a doc asap and offered to go with me! In all the years of therapy I never had one willing to accompany me to a med app. She said the doc needs a fuller picture of my struggles and she wants to make sure im being heard.
She told me to stop being so hard on myself till next time and that she wants to work on my sense of self worth and help me process things from the past.

Next app dec 4.
Till then please let me not have another meltdown
Im such a mess.
Trying to stay somewhat busy helps.

Looking forward to stuffing my face with my favorite comfort foods

One day at a time and sometimes one minute at a time...

I have so much to do today and I don't want to do any of it. I want to stick a pillow over my head and daydream.

Mum still hasn't emailed me back after I told her I had been put on a mental health plan for BPD.. No surprise really after I told her not to tell me I need Jesus...
My ex boyfriend left today for a week fishing off shore.. which means he wont text me for a week.. I think I will miss him and I dont even sure why...
I think I might read a book.

Is this how we do it here on this thread? ahaha? I am new..

Feeling quite down today...not sure...been a little over two weeks since med increase. I was actually feeling less depressed on the lower dosage. Is that normal? I'm sleeping too much, no energy to go anywhere or do anything. I really need a job, but that requires looking. How did I become so pathetic and empty? It wasn't always this way, but my brain grows more cruel with age....feeling really bummed...at a loss.
