The people at BPDRecovery.com are, for the most part, individuals such as yourself struggling with their own recovery from Borderline. There are no therapists or counselors on-staff. No one at BPDRecovery.com is licensed or qualified to provide you with professional help.
Unlike quite a few boards on the internet, BPDRecovery.com does not ban sensitive topics of discussion, including suicide. We believe it is important for you to get in touch with the feelings that are overwhelming you. We believe it is important for you to discuss those feelings. If you do not have a therapist, a support network in real life, are afraid to contact a suicide or crisis hotline, we do encourage you to explore your feelings in the safe environment that BPDRecovery.com is pleased and proud to provide.
Please keep in mind that, since BPDRecovery.com is a community support group and its members are also working to overcome their own BPD issues, some people may not be inclined to respond or interact in threads concerning suicidal feelings. It is not your fault; it is not their fault. Please don't take an individual's lack of participation as a personal insult. They are entitled to cope with their own feelings in response to sharing in your painful words posted on the board.
We do care about you.
Feelings are temporary - this too shall pass.
Once you're feeling a little bit better, we ask you to consider keeping track of your mood on a regular basis with our mood finder and working through the section of CBT for Depression.
