Keep strong Wendy. You are doing so well. You have got through the hard week so give yourself some credit :). Just be honest with your cpn tomorrow and at the counselling. I don't know I think it has helped sort of in away being honest as my cpn now knows what I'm actually feeling and coming from. And I thought we made alot more progress today than we have in the past. So hopefully it will be the same for you!!! Have a nice relaxing lie in tomorrow :).
*hugs* - were all rooting for you.
That's insane Colour. Coffee shop sounds good. But hopefully it will be all worth it if you do get onto the reframed dbt group. What is the other group? Normal dbt?
Good luck Oliver :). You can do it!! Of o remember correctly it has to do with music or drama right? Let us know how you get on.
Hope everyone is alright xxx

Thanks Tinkles. It's music, I will do. The audition is at 4, but I won't be online until late in the evening as I'm getting straight on a train home to my parents for two days.
How are you?

Tinkles, the other group is treatment as normal, I.e. anti-d's and therapy already being used if you happen to be on a waiting list and get to the top during the trial.
Ive recently been diagnosed bpd. I feel really up in the air about it. I guess i saw it coming but still im struggling with it.
My mood is being classic at the moment, i cant be bothered really procrastinating at the moment.
There was an incident last saturday where this woman got right up in my face all because i said excuse me there is a que here and she'd jumped it. It left me feeling very anxious and scared, tearful. I ended up hyperventalating and needing prn to calm down, but its carried on effecting me. I cant get it out of my head and its going round and round. This happens with alot of other incidents even good ones.
Does this hapen to anyone else and how do you cope? My psych said its to do with my self image and esteem amd confidence, all which i have none of.
Bittersweet, hi! Those kind of things sometimes happen to me too..and I feel down(even with stuff that seem of no importance to other people..) and I feel like I hate myself..like why can't I just ignore that. I usually try to cope by telling myself positive stuff, to get back my good mood(which instantly goes away when incidents like that happen). I'm not sure if this would work for you and I know it might be hard to stay positive..but you could try..
And about your self-esteem problems, you could try writing down stuff you like about yourself. Any little thing at first like idk the colour of your hair and stuff like that..it might help. :)

my car broke down on the way to acupuncture. So I missed my appt, and had to be towed by the RAC after a 2 hour wait. And it's costing me 120 quid to fix. And I've had to borrow that from my dad, despite owing him 300 already =[
*Higs Colour* I'm sorry about your car and your missed appt , I find accupuncture quite helpful if only so many people didn't show up for it and set off my anxiety *Magic car repairing Higgles*

colour - cars suck sometimes dont they. so expensive, but so couldnt be without it. i had to have new brakes and a new windscreen last week for the MOT, bit more for the credit card debts. mine cut out today on way to cpn app, luckily managed to roll in down hill and pull over out the way and thankfully restarted. sends me into panic when things like that happen though.
angel - glad results were ok.
Mark - hugs
morning Lucky
Welcome to the new members, everyone here is lovely and im sure you will find lots of support, i know i have.
im just back from my cpn app. talked through lots of stuff, she asked how my last hospital app had gone, as had just been recalled for test results when i saw her last. told her about needing biopsy and very nearly lost it. have been trying not to think about it, but talking about it made it seem so much more real. she is also going to talk to psych about my dissocaition probs as cpn doesnt really know what to do about supporting me with them. so will see what she says.
just got to keep busy now before my counselling app this afternoon.
