5) You know you are Borderline when...

When you feel self-deprecating because someone didn't praise something you did.

When you want to punch the new girl at work just because she went to school with your boyfriend.

Thank you to everyone that wrote and made their suggestions for me. I do think I am Borderline because I get way too emotional and passionate. I've cut on myself when I was younger and have scars all over my body. They look hideous now but then I thought they looked cool . I didn't know I was hurting so bad, I was in denial for a long time. Sometimes I feel all alone. IN fact I feel along now. Again thank you for your nice replies>tanja or mysticalmusic

When you feel like you are being held hostage/ bullied by your own emotions.

You need to control everything around you or .......have an escape route for when your not in control

Slight changes creates absolute chaos .... I thrive on order cos my head is a mess .... I need to control something right??? Xx

When you can agree with everything on this thread...

When you see your bf's new profile pic of him posing with a newborn and your heart is beating so hard and so fast and you can't breath because you're convinced he's going to answer "she's mine" (completely forgetting his sister was expecting)

He thought that me thinking that was hilarious btw

I don't. I know that I'm an emotional and passoinate person who is learning to cope with life as I am but no longer believe in the label. Just sayin...

ahhh the 'label' for me was the difference between spinning in place like a directionless tornado, eating up ground, and people and myself....and realizing, firstly, I'm not alone, and secondly..if I want to...I can slow down the insanity to a measure survivable...for me, for those I love...for those I may, one day, love.

You know you're a borderline when you're actually grateful someone has named it....and you're not as completely alone as you've felt your entire life.

The so-called beauty of BPD was noticing that I have periods of time where my BPD is under pretty good control. I'm still highly emotional, but not too extreme, and I have a more comfortable sense of control over my life.

Then come the hard times. Thank goodness, these periods don't last very long. But, it seems to be a few weeks to months of daily chaos. It's only in these times that I recall the times before more clearly, and can only vaguely remember "the better times". In these hard times, I am beyond miserable. Intense emotions are coming at me so fast, I can't adjust to just one feeling! Sucks is a major understatement!! I wish that I could describe it better.

Strangest of all ~ I probably have my happiest points in these crappiest times.

PLEASE tell me that you understand the depth of what I'm trying to get across to you. Anyone who knows me also knows that I do NOT talk like this often at all & I'm freaking *very serious*, if that helps at all. Idk...

When you are so happy and feel on top of the world because a minor good thing happens and then 15 minutes later you read a lot into one small comment someone makes and you're depressed and sobbing.

Thank you....really, thank you.

When you have no idea if you are laughing or crying anymore.

note - I feel like the normies are mis/underdiagnosed maniacs. It amuses me so.

When u cry out for help and hate it when people try help but at same time hate being ignored. What is my life ?

When the boyfriend decided to go sleep for a few hours and u don't know and txt millions cos u worry bout abandonment ? Or am I alone here !

You're not alone here.. that's pretty bpd typical behavior. *hug*

Just feel like a crappy gf xxx

I'm sure you're not. You just struggle with issues dealing with fear of abandonment. Needs to change but not something that makes you a crappy gf. I'm sure he could do worse!

Totally get that.

When you type a reply then delete it....type it then delete it.....type then delete....then just post it anyways.....
