Well, you can't say that having BPD is boring!
I just thought that I had myself figured out when my therapist said, but think . . .
What is nature and what is nurture? What needs "fixing"?
Am I by nature reserved, withdrawn, reclusive OR
am I this way because I'm afraid of being judged?
I want to go with the first scenario (nature) and stop trying to fix me.
But she points out that I'm not by nature these things rather I am these things because I am scared.
Does "Why?" am I this way matter? As long as I can relax and accept myself for the way I am, does it really matter "why"?
Any insight?
to all.

Hello, jean17. This seems to be something to be mutually addressed in the treatment plan. What do you want to accomplish in therapy? You get to choose the goals, with the input of the therapist.

I wish you well.
Thanks for this!
