One minute you believe you have bpd 100 percent it fits so well, another minute you certain you dont have a mental illness at all, then you think youve been mis diagnosed and probrably have four or five seperate mental illnesses

When you have made a mistake, your mistake is pointed out to you, and you immediately think the worst of yourself

Your friend is having a bad day or has a lot on his mind but all you can think is, "is he mad at me? what did I do to upset him?"

You say something wrong and take someones response negatively because of their tone and you feel terrible and sad, but at times upset and angered.

Out of sight out of mind. When you do not have constant contact with the only person who actually cares for you think they no longer care for you. Even though you know it is not true, and it is your disorder voice telling you that, you panic, the self loathing starts, you feel worthless, you realize your sense of self has been wrapped up in that one person and now you feel utterly lost. WTF?

I end up in a corner with no one talking to me. It continues the feeling of being broken.

[QUOTE=LemonZest35;3882825]One moment you feel like life isn't worth living and can't pull yourself out of it... And then two hours later, everything's fine.

yup....I am planning my suicide. Counting my stash of pills and then a few hours later I am doing handstands in the backyard. I am sick of the constant up and downs and up and down. In and out of the dark. I can not take it anymore.

When you feel your post seems intelligent enough to get a lot of likes and comments you feel you'd get a lot of credit for it, but really no one cared and you feel the worst for being seen as unimportant....

To stay on topic.

When you want a girlfriend badly but can't risk anything. So you never make a move.
