I have been doing a lot of reading on my diagnosis of borderline personality disorder and logically it all makes sense I understand completely I understand the symptoms understand where comes from how it starts but when it comes to my heart understanding it there's a disconnect I hate that I hate that I can magically understand my disorder but emotionally can't I guess that's part of the disorder but still I wish that somehow my brain could tell my heart what's going on in my head so I could understand and cope with that better not feel so alone not feel so many feelings all at the same time does anyone have the same issue with BPD understanding it logically but not emotionally I guess that's a dumb question

I am not sure I am suffering from BPD but I did find some posts that might be of interest.

Emotion rules me.

Brain: You have to be logical and accept it.
Heart: *You can't tell me what to do*

My life.

Punctuation may help, gosh it pained my eyes to read that. Anyway, I know what you mean. It's hard to acknowledge the full-on diagnosis and often it shows itself when the person is under extreme stress. When life is going even keel, the traits don't show as much. A lot of being unable to grasp it emotionally has to do with defense mechanisms to protect the ego. After all, BPD is a very damning thing to have, as is any Cluster B personality disorder.

i'm so frequently very logical about difficult things to grasp, but can't seem to emotionally absorb it. totally understand what you're saying, it's hard to be at that disconnecting point but i hope that over time you will somehow been convinced into it
