BPDRecovery.com: Forums

Hi everyone:

Today has been an epiphany for me, it started out as what I thought was one of the worst days of my life, but I have been trying, trying, trying to find the answer - then I saw it - I believe i am BPD.

I have been reading for hours. It seems to me that perhaps a good way to start, is to get a grip on the mood swings. Take a moment, do not accept your first emotions as what you need to go with, make an attempt to be balanced, not to assume about people, that they are a mixed bag and so am I and that is ok.

The hardest thing to accept is that it seems the emotional pain is not going to go away with a simple attitude change. That it is hard wired. I hate that. Then again it seems my passionate nature is part of the problem.

Thank you for letting me be here, and I look forward to reading your posts.

hey there valdacious

first of all, welcome onboard

well, well well, we all had our 'first moments' when we first found out about having bpd, or the possibility of having bpd.

those feelings? those awful painful abandonment feelings? they'll go away when you have a change of perspective. It happened to me.

Welcome Valdacious!

As one of my doctors put it, "You're just wired a little differently than most people."

I'm glad you found us.
