I was reminded of this when I listened to the Johnny Depp trial and Amber Heard was accused of being BPD with trouble regulating her emotions. (She seemed to do pretty good on the stand I thought).
I have trouble regulating my anxiety and worry. I regulate anger and paranoia pretty well. __________________ I know why you wanna hate me! Cause hate is all the world has seen lately! - Limp Bizkit |

I think I'm, perhaps, the opposite. I regulate anxiety and worry pretty well (along with a good dose of Clonazepam.) I don't have too much trouble with paranoia (mostly it flares up late at night when it's dark and quiet.) But, under the right circumstances, my anger can know few boundaries. And even while I'm in the midst of an anger outburst (generally at myself) I know what I'm doing isn't healthy, nor does it make sense, but I can't stop it. Then, once it's past, I feel guilty as well as angry at myself all-over-again for letting it happen yet again. I don't know... it's a vicious circle...
