I am trying to behave and react to the situation in a way that is "acceptable". I am going through the hardest time of my life at the moment with this and it is nice to know that I am not alone.

Thank you so much for this video. I have just been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder. I had a really nice boyfriend who was trying to be understanding but he couldn't cope with my constant need for reassurance and comforting. He wants to try and work things out in the future and obviously this has been really difficult because my usual reaction would be to attempt suicide or let myself fall apart, but he seems like the one and for that reason, as well as wanting to get better,

Kayla, you are an inspiration. Hearing you talk so candidly about BPD helps me to find my own voice as i finally have a context in which to place myself. Your courage and authenticity shine like a light of hope. Thank you xx

I am of course going to go to the docs as soon as I can, to ask for a proper diagnosis (im currently suffering from depression, for the second time in my life), & am sick to death of ME telling them I have depression, them saying, 'yes, u must have, wud like sum tablets?', or me pushing them to give me SUM kind of therapy, only to have a few sessions with sum in house counsellor, who is quite happy for me to just sit & tell them about my day!! Grrrrr.

Hey, thanks for thi vid, I found the link on DaniZ's FB page & thought I wud ck it out. REALLY glad I did now. I dnt no why but it REALLY helps that u are NOT from the States, as, since I found out about this disorder, just a few days ago, all I have seen & heard is stuff frm the States, which kinda leaves me feeling despair in the knowledge that most GP's etc, probs either havnt even heard of it, or 'dnt believe in it'. Since discovering this disorder, I really do believe THIS is wot I have
