Breaking Free From Borderline Personality Disorder

[EndlessNytemare]

this is our path and our test in life and there's a part of me that wouldn't want it any other way cause there's just no one as complex and deep as i am and yeah every single one of my relationships is eventually destroyed i'm gettin better though!

[FatFriendly1]

I have BPD and the best thing anyone with it can do is understand who you are, and where you are. accept who you are and you can begin to accept others. Finding inner peace is like waking up from the bad dream.

[neil22100]

This is right because the first words that come out of my mouth was to my boyfriend was ''don't leave me, don't leave me! People like me and other borderline people hate the feeling of being alone and the feelings of emptyness! There is more to it tho!

[neil22100]

This video made me cry! What a wonderful video!

[friendlyblueangel]

Wonderful video!!

Congratulations on the gr8 work!!

[riddleboxx330]

ive always had the biggest problem loving myself because ive always grew up wondering and thinking wat if the real me is the nightmare that keeps me afraid everyday

[05002368]

I'm on a very similar journey. I have started a page on facebook called the BPD cafe where I post the most helpful resources I have found online. I shall be adding this.

Wishing love luck and peace to you.

[BeatlesFetish09]

i seem to have many of the bdp signs. i use to think i had extreme shyness but as i've been getting older, i was thinking there was something more. lately i have been frustrate with myself in how i've failed at most of my relationships and couldn't even keep a marriage! lately it was feeling like most of the world was against me. yet knowing that i have many of the signs of bdp at least allows me to understand myself.

[triathlete8]

dont give up!

you will find the support when you most need it and least expect it.

those that matter will show up when you need them and help you.

its never too late to get help and when you're on the journey never give up.

hang in there and know that sunshine and amazing happiness is right around the corner.

love yourself and love those around you. stay positive during the darkest and toughest times of your life. you will need it!

[JaydeTalia01]

That was absolutely beautiful..

I'm going to cry..

I have suffered for so long and I thought no-one else would understand.

I will join you on the journey.

Thankyou so much for this video.. xx x x xx x x xx x

[LiaTyson]

I cant cope anymore, no one cares anymore... I just want it all to finish, no one is going to want me ever, I just punched my whole face up, I have a split lip, who wants a crazy woman like me? I cant cope anymore, I wish I had a friend to tell me its going to be ok, it just hurts so much :'( its been going for too long, and I cant cope anymore, I just wanted to be normal, but that will never happen...maybe BPD's are just not meant to be :( thats what it feels like, I just want it to end ...

[muzzster1970]

@LiaTyson Hi. I have fought BPD for most of my life. I am praying for you to find the strength to keep going. I know what those lonely roads are like. Perseverance is your greatest ally. One day, at the end of my rope, I begged God to help me or end me. A truly beautiful angel rescued me. I'm not trying to convince you of anything, but rather suggest an option as a means of encouragement. Don't worry about others, just focus on yourself and believe you are worthy of happiness. You are loved.

[mvzone18]

THanks a LotxD

[Mr1SXM]

It is nice to see those who have passed the worst give comfort and wisdom to those yet to find peace.

[katbennath]

thank you for making this video. thank you

[asdahjby]

Some things you cant "let go" some things will always be the same and no matter what others say it will never change. it will always be with you forever and always.

[jennymyork]

I love this ~ just finishing a year long residential DBT therapy programme to treat my BPD and ED, and this is absolutely spot on!!! All the best and I hope things continue upwards for you xxxx

[movadoband]

This would be fucking great if I was normal and handled things like a normal person.

[death9095]

Thank you so much this past while i have been feeling really down. You have given me a shred of hope to continue working on. Thank you again, I just can't seem to find the words for the help that just a short video can do for some one like me :D

[ButterflyMumma]

How ?

I can have a thousand awakening's to a new me in one day ?

I don't know who i am ?

I don't know what my purpose is ?

But this video is comforting .. It does give me hope, and peace :)

\Thankyou.

[bradandrews007]

i just wish i felt...... good

i feel guilt when i dont do anything wrong

im so lost and noone knows

i pretend im okay and everyone beleives it

noone knows the truth

i hate it i just wish i felt helped :(

[mallygirl231]

i tried to get help .. i then was hospitalized.

:/ it gets hard. its not as easy as this video makes it.

[HR2061ps]

@mallygirl231 No, it's not like this tape ! But know........ we , that is the people with borderline are fighters ! So are you ! So I'm I ! Wish you al the love in the world. From Holland !

[janhsameijer]

I wish i could!

[jquinn25]

Good to see a more positive recovery focus and change from being a BPD diagnosis to a BPD Thriver

[iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13]

It's not that easy

[myownworstmistake]

love the video.... I was diagnosed 7 years ago... still holding on... and hope that I could believe in just one thing from this video... one day .....

[dantheman80632]

Great video i honastly believe im breaking free from this curse if i can do it you can to

[Tigermoon1950]

I have BPD and MDD, so I'm totally screwed up. I'm at the point in life where I don't even care if I get better or not. I'm not looking for answers, I'm looking for an easy and painless way out. Good luck to you guys; as for me, "dead man walking."

PEACE

[daisyfinsen78]

jeg gik i behandling i 3 år og i dag har jeg ikke borderline så der er håb for alle jeg er rask i dag og live et godt live i dag. jeg elsker mig selv for første gang i 32 år jeg håber i alle sammen en dag kommer der til for vi alle betyder noget og vi alle har en masse af gir af. pas på jer selv og jeg ønsker jer alle held og lykke og jeg tro på i alle klare den .

[MelissaHoupe]

Do you ever feel like you lost a bit of your personality? Im afraid of losing myself while am getting better.

[croatloveo1]

@MelissaHoupe omg thank you for saying im sacred of losing my personality i do push people away allot but the few people that know how to deal with me find me interesting im scared to lose that.

[mmkitty74]

In my language, I couldn't find any kind of this VIDEO. They hurt, struggle alone,hide themselves. I haven't ever diagnosed by BPD but I know I'm kind of this disorder. I'm impressed with people in the world are sharing info and express them as they are and try to heal other ones. I want to know HOW TO recover. When I love myself, I can say I recover? Now I'm a bit hopeless with me. It seems easier to leave me alone rather than come closer to loved one. Anyway thanks for this Video.

[PitbullDesperate]

thank you for this video!!!! i just started my recovery after many years of suffering... and this really lifted me up!!! thank you!!! agree with artgeek09 - we need this more! :)))

peace

[artgeek09]

awesome video! we need more of these uplifiting, "you can make it" videos on here to replace so many "i feel bad, this could trigger" vids. thanks!

[xxmoonflamexx]

Wow, really really beautiful! I'm suffering with bps and this gives me hope! Thank you!

[rbogdewic]

NowTHAT'S a great video

[mztoia]

Great Video!! Im sure this can help those who have this disorder feel better about themselves.

[Redblacklollipop]

that meldy sounds like " I'm Yours " by jason maz, whatever his name is.

[princessamie89]

I have just been diagnosed with BPD, though Ive known since I was 13 I had it.(im 20). I have found the diagnoses to be extrememly overwhelming, and prior to it being official, I thought I was doing really well. I am terrified of the label, the stigma attached and the way I believe people are going to perceive me. I am DETERMINED to recover, planning on starting DBT asap, I don't want to be 30 and still living a life of manipulation, fear and regret. Your video was inspiring!

[Sturmtiger100]

I didn't wanna reach 30 and still be suffering either...

Ooops, I'm 40 and my BPD still hasn't gone away!

Don't stress, be terrified or too horrified though.

On the whole, despite my faults and my illness, I like who I am and I like my life.

[suicidal78688]

sorry to disapoint u, i dont think u can recover from borderline personality disorder, all u can do is manage the symptoms.

[FrostBorn89]

but what if you really work on the thought

that life is bout being happy and we will all live and die, but they that do hurt, are huret themself.

theres a big calm in finding peace, not weakness.

but i know what its like with feelingof hate thats really hard to escape, but these words helped me

[1hennaahmed]

inspiring words.

[FIVETE73]

THANK YOU Katy, wonderful clip.

a french bordeline.

[cocoapowdersauce]

this made me cry loadssssssssss. gave me a tiny bit of hope though, though not enough but im just hoping my day will eventually come.

[lemoonlimebubbles]

This is an excellent video.

It made me cry.

I was diagnosed in January. And I"m trying to keep my head up. I showed this video to my friends, and they cried with me, because they've all seen the progress I've made and still am making.

This is an inspiration, and is a huge step towards breaking the stigma of mental illness and helping others understand that we're not crazy, at all.

I cannot express nearly enough thanks.

*HUGS FOR EVERYBODY WHO SEES THIS*

[angelunited]

i made a video from my recavory after i've seen this. maybe you want to watch out :)

[angelunited]

hey =) i'm glad to hear you want to recover. i hope you finally get where you wanted. :) i also recoverd from BPD and, yes its not easy but it is possible if you really want to. i did it without any medicaments, i just worked hard onmyself and my points of few. you can if you want to

[Moondeva1967]

Labels, just labels... What's you're brand? Do it your way, feel you like only you can & remember: anti-psychotics were given in workkamps in for example USSR and still today China, to inprisoned intellectuels not just to sefdate them, but to te de-personalize them as well, as all those pills do... (Unless you're used to them as...me... and I can do without if I want, proved it: nobdy noticed... It's no fun!!! This is zero...

[pantz64]

I have lived with BPD all my life (im 38) nice video but it's easier said than done!

[xBULLSH1T]

niceee vid!

whats the song? :o

[lemoonlimebubbles]

The song is "Somewhere Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World" by Aselin Debison.

(:

[sweeetly]

....when those negative voices, those barking dogs come around, you can tell em to 'sit'.

It may take anything from 2 to 6 months to find the peace, but you will.

Check out burtharding on utube

[sweeetly]

Meditiation. Meditate, do it every day. Practice dropping all ya worries, pains even just for 10 mins a day. Increase the time slowly. All the answers are inside you.

There is a still place inside each of us. Find it and go there every day.

I promise U will find peace.

You have been conditioned to not love yourself, we all have. Not good enough ect.

Medititaion gets you to the deep parts of self where all this crap is sitting. It unravels the mysteries of why we feel this way....

[taniaaust1]

in my case meditation doesnt help at all. i do love myself, i know im beautiful.. my BPD flares with triggers and can flare within seconds. When in bad sudden flare i cant meditate as im too busy trying to stop myself from killing myself and hurting anyone else by being irrational. stopping and being still in such a moment only makes me emotionally flare up worst

[sweeetly]

Gosh I feel for you so much and rooting for you taniaauss1.

[sameerindia]

Beautifull girl! Life is Beautifull and so are you

there are many who love you

keep smiling

[herstome5656]

How can you get better? Meds? Or if you work hard enough at a positive attitude

[jogsingumboots]

Thanks for the video Katy, hope you're further down this great road a year on.

[DocRaver1976]

its better to be alone then to be with some1 ...

[Petratrijnie]

I would really like to know who sings the song. it sounds like a young child. I think it is so beautifull, like an angel singing... Wow! Really good. Can anyone tell me the name?

[Paspartu82]

Its Norah Jones.

[cazangelcat]

I really like this one you have shown very well that BPD is not necessary a life sentence and that there are ways of breaking free from it. Even if it is just for awhile. Thanks for the positve look at BPD from a fellow survivor!

[monswat]

i think bpd is curable. its your cgoice when you decide to take control of your life.

[zanakax]

keep on thinking.. bet u dont got it and never had it.. unless uve had it HUSH!!

[slowasscivic]

He is right. You have a choice(as do I) it's just extremely difficult to overcome. No one is a victim unless you allow yourself to stay a victim. Im still stuck playing that card, hoping one day to stop playing it. But its up to me.

[zanakax]

its not up to you.. its not like u say 'today is a new day lets be happy'' some people got memories, awefull memories they cant stop thinking about.. wich make them feel bad etc.etc.. * hope you understand what i mean *

[lucymia]

If it's up to you then why are you still playing the victim card?

[slowasscivic]

When you are emotionally underdeveloped it takes time(years) to "grow" out of this disorder. Just like you mature and develop over many years most of us with bpd are not developed emotionally, thus the inability to regulate our emotions like most people would. That doesn't mean you can't change that, and it doesn't mean the bpd behavior wont still appear from time to time, in the winter months mine gets really bad, mainly due to my SAD.

[slowasscivic]

Sorry about the run-on sentences, i just woke up... heh

[lucymia]

I'm so tired of this kind of remark. Oh yeah, just really really want it and it'll all work out. If it was that damn easy there would be no disorders and mental diseases.

[monswat]

oh yes then better give up and kill yourself. that must be easier than trying, isnt it?

[lucymia]

Has it ever ocurred to you that a mental disorder can KEEP YOU FROM TRYING?

[monswat]

yes it does keep ,e from trying on the bad when i cant ever think anything straight and am under psychosis. But the other days i would atleast TRY to fight itm try to learn to love myself, even if a bit,try to find my positives and be happy that i have a lot of things that make me special, the fact that i can out up with this being one of them. normal people cant. Maybe one day i convince my deeper conscious to love myself.

[iDazzelYou]

I am really moved by your amazing will, and i hope that you keep trying, and keep believing that you can over come it ....and i hope one day you WILL love yourself, because everyone has the right to get a second chance in life and everysoul has the right to be beautiful on the inside out.

[monswat]

thanks and i hope everybody atleast tries, rather than giving up yourself to a learnt disorder.we can always try to learn to love ourself.

[hurmley]

There are periods that i wish that i was asleep, but this video can be the trigger to forget about the very dark periods and live.

Thnx, and the best to all people suffering. You are not alone

[honestgirl09]

this video is so inspiring and uplifting. ive emailed it to all my friends and mental health worker. thanks so much. i was getting so downhearted about my bpd and watching others on youtube, then your video showed up and reminded me there is hope.x

[koalastephanie]

Beautiful video, good luck on the road to recovery

[1973BEE]

this is the most beautiful and inspiring singing and words... this lady singing pulls the strings of my heart... the vibration and sweetness of her changing has escorted me through tears and laughter over again.. The GODS and the ANCESTERS have blessed us all with this girls voice and her energy ...GOD BLESS YOU RICHIE FOR SHOWING ME THIS VIDEO AND ANY SOUL WHO HAS COME TO SEE THIS YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY WE WILL ALL MEET ONE DAY OUTSIDE OF TIME AND SPACE .

Happiness just up ahead!!Thank you soo much,this tune will get a smile out of anybody..LOVE teresa..besitos a todos

[NeskaBean]

Wow - who is singing this? I love her version of this song! I hope recovery from BPD is possible. It seems that I have a lot of people in my family who suffer from it, which means that I SUFFER!!! Suffer. No other word, and not even that, can capture the pain they put me through. They don't seem to recognize or care that they have a problem. It is absolutely a maddening nightmare.

[Bizecca]

Thank you so much for this vid! I am currently on the road to recovery in dealing with BPD. This vid made is very uplifting! Thank you!!

[nonikas87]
