Life with Borderline Personality Disorder

I guess its a representation of not only BPD, but also what it does to me, from a males perspective. it will hopefully serve as an education for those who do not suffer from this illness but know someone who does
Its been a bad 2 days, and this has helped a bit....I hope it helps you too
Take Good care n remember, There is always hope somewhere

for me it doesnt just come from the negative aspects, as i have bi-polar as well, when i get manic i get good, then i go nuts and am lots of fun then crash...Its the bigger picture that causes the fall as i look around at all thats around and the people around and then my mind starts to run a million miles an hour and i cant handle it and i crash...The 'bigger picture' IS part of the issue

The borderline part comes from the doctors side of things where they class the dark patches we get into as on the borderline of Neurosis and Psychosis, its not a bad thing, just a way of them being able to i guess put a label so they can get the treatment happening properly

I know that only a doctor can make the diagnosis, but frankly, I think this is me all over. May I ask why it is called "Borderline?" What exactly does this "border" on? Psychosis? Sociopathy? Please tell me it doesn't! I have dealt with genuine sociopaths, and I hate them more than anything else!

Cuz i wanted to kill my self like 4 times. But i found God in my life and i got better... Good luck to you all.. i know how you feel ): xxxxxxxxx

I've been suicidal about 8 or 10 times so far, its not a good place to be in i know that and awareness is the only thing that stops it from happenning...sometimes the hard part of bpd is the actions arent always voluntary

BPD friends and fellows, you should all come and talk to us other sufferers on mom (mapofmates)!

@sixisreal ~ I going to respectfully, yet completely disagree. I'm in love with an amazing, beautiful woman with BPD... she means the world to me and at times yes the BPD takes over, but I know she doesn't mean what she says or does, and the fact that she is trying SO hard to take control, inspires me. I try to learn as much as I can about this disorder so that I can understand her better. I suggest you do the same, because it is apparent you have no idea the hell they go through everyday...

Oh, I cried over this video. It's so... me.

A very nasty disorder. We know that you are more than bpd and you have healthy feelings deep inside you. The problem is that these symptoms makes you who you are and from the perspective of others, you are deemed a bad person because those bpd traits are responsible for your actions. Only some of us understands that there are more to you than just bpd shadowing your real true self inside and it's unfortunate that most people do not understand and will simply judge you for your actions. Be strong

I have BPD and I really relate to this video. I feel a connection. Im not suicidal, but I feel alot of emotions and it is a constant battle. I also am married to a narcissist and it is a marriage made in hell. I have to find the courage and strength to fight this and to remove myself from a bad situation. Thank you for your video.

I feel your pain.

It is tough to hear you say that a BPD gives and gives....My soon to be ex wife put me and my family through hell these last 2 years. I was always there for her and never EVER threatened to leave because of her issues. She is leaving for the 5th time this week in the last 15 months. I feel terrible for my daughter and I feel bad for her but I cannot take it anymore. Right now I am the devil....3 weeks ago I am the angel. I can do nothing but ler her go. Tragic and sad.

i hate my bdp everyday!!!

[Prettydog200]

I think I might have this. Even though I don't do drugs or self injure myself, I have anger issues and a really big fear of being alone and misunderstood...I'm a good person but no one seems to care...
