Yes,

BPD does suck, but there are ways that you can help yourself learn to cope. This can be difficult!!

Have you ever worked with DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy)?

I don't know if you have any local programs near you, but there are some great DBT workbooks out there that can really help when the urges come forward.

I did 8 mos of this treatment and it helped a lot....although I still have VERY difficult times, I find it easier to cope and I find that my reaction time between the impulse of wanting to SI and actually doing it has lengthened allowing me more time to use interventions that don't require SI.

BPD can be very difficult to treat. The most difficult thing about DBT is utilizing it in your daily life. For it to be the most helpful, you really need to be open to helping yourself and fighting back against the negative thoughts and emotions.

Have you gotten some help yet, sweet cheeks? I am wondering.......I have been following your posts, was it you that went to California? If so are you still with someone to keep you safe?

I am still as concerned for you as I ever was!! Sorry, I am a mother and I sound like mum but I really think you need to explore the options of therapy.....this is not something that will just go away. I speak from many years of personal experience.....

Do it because you deserve to feel better, because you have a mission to heal and you have a responsibility to yourself to be safe!!!!! Please!!!

In stillness and take care
