BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER WILL MAKE ME STRONG
Welcome to RYL, i'm sorry that you're finding things difficult. Do you have any support? Have you told anyone about the thoughts you have been having about your family? That sounds distressing, I can relate to that a bit because I worry a lot about bad things happening to my family because I have OCD. I hope you find it helpful here. Please get in touch at any time. Take care.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.
Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.
Hey Hope - yeah I can completely relate to what you are saying. BPD can be quite scary, were you diagnosed by a doctor, and what support/meds they helping you out with?
Self harm is deffo common in those who have bpd, so you ae not on your own here hunni. I can deffo relate to what you are saying too, the BPD thread here is good, it allows you to talk to others who have bpd and get support from them, which is good
Feel free to pm me anytime if you want any support/advice
Something has changed within me, something is not the same, I'm through with playing by the rules of someone elses game. Too late for second guessing, too late to go back to sleep, its time to trust my instincts, close my eyes and leap....
Somethings I cannot change, but till I try I'll never know...

Big hugs to all my friends on here, thanks for your constant support - love you guys
*hugs* welcome to RYL. you'll find a lot of people here with BPD. and everyone here is really supportive. pm me if you ever wanna talk about anything. i'm sorry you're having those thoughts. i've had them before too and they're really scary.
There's a fair few of us here on RYL with BPD so please don't feel like you're alone, cos you're not. We're always here to listen if you need to vent or just ask questions etc.

Heya,
I have BPD aswell. I'm sorry you are having a rough time. I get horrible thoughts about people close to me dying aswell. Earlier i was sure my girlfriend had died and had a panic attack. What are the specific worries you are having?
I hope you find this forum helpful
xx
Hi, welcome to RYL!
i am still under examination for my mental issues, i dont even know if i fit any criteria ! but still, you are not alone here as many of the members have BPD, a different mental illness, self harm, or other psyc issues! This is place where you can be yourself:) everybody is so nice and nonjudgemental from all of my experience!
sorry you are going through such a rough time, and i hope things get better for you soon. hope you find the support here that you need! feel free to give me a pm if you ever need to :)

ps if your friends are having trouble understanding bpd, perhaps print off some information, or get a pamphlet from the doctors.. or even write a little note about your own thoughts\experiences\feelings about bpd and that may help them understand you\bpd a bit more! goodluck!
