I'm really sorry you feel this way. The perception and reality may be very different; I didn't find your post to be annoying at all. Talking about how you feel is healthy. I'm sure you are a good person, are you seeing a therapist?

Sorry for the late response, I was out of town! What kind of therapy are you doing? DBT might be a good one for you if you haven't tried it.

Dialectic Behavioral Therapy (DBT) is the best form of treatment for BPD, usually in conjunction of medication. Maybe you could talk to your T about this to see if it's something that they do or if they can recommend someone for you?

I relate very much to feeling "annoying" and when I feel this way, I somehow make it even harder for myself and others.

When I feel this way, I withdraw, I feel frustrated, sad, shut down, ashamed.

I have felt like this most of my life.

Then it seems like ppl want to help me and then again, there goes the vicious cycle:

"See, people keep coming at you cause you are so needy."

Then I withdraw more.

I guess often I break this cycle by trying to fight the shame, but sometimes it still gets me.

I feel the same way a lot of the time and can relate to the push away come close dynamic. Just this week my T said that the messages I received as a child I have internalized and taken on as my own. Has me wondering today if I really am too much for everyone or was just too much for the folks who were around when I was a child. I then believed them and now think I am too dependent, too this and too that when maybe it's not true. Could the parent we adored really not handle my needs as a child well that's hard to think about but maybe it's true too, who knows. If we get the message long enough we take it on as being our truth. Maybe it is true that my needs are too great too. Therapy does help sort this kind of thing out
Thanks for this!

I feel like this too pretty often. And then I don't have anything to give back to the people who help me.
