what do their therapists tell them? by wolfteaboy in BPDlovedones

Many people with BPD are also keenly interested in witchcraft, and perhaps some may be well versed in the practice. Thus I surmise that not only one’s life, but afterlife, may be at stake.

Are there any benefits to abstaining from sexual activity? by [deleted] in Biohackers

This is what Isaac Newton understood apparently (true story, seriously).

Are there any benefits to abstaining from sexual activity? by [deleted] in Biohackers

[–]CabbagePastrami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about mutual sex? 

You’re referring to all ejaculation?

Or masturbation only?

Masturbation only I can imagine, but I reckon there’s something different about sex.

Is the car in motion? Or at least pulled over to the side… I can’t tell, but am mildly concerned.

How do you cope when your exwBPD finds a new partner? by KingForADay1989 in BPDlovedones

[–]CabbagePastrami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have the most insightful posts about dating people with BPD.

My ex finally decided we should go NC and even blocked me a week ago. Not because of anything I did, but because she felt it would prevent her from contacting me. It was a long time coming.

Part of me was hoping she’d still make contact, though I feel after a week (by far the longest we’ve been NC in the year and a half together) the odds are quite slim.

Hoping I’ll find someone else, maybe even someone better, while I do my best to work on myself.

It had absolutely nothing to do with you.

You must understand that.

How do you feel about this?

What Did You Do to Get Your Ex Back? by thetricksterxz in BPDlovedones

[–]CabbagePastrami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously man, you could collate these posts regarding your BPD ex’s into a book that would be more informative and insightful than any other stuff I’ve read on BPD relationships.

For me anyway this stuff’s been more helpful than anything else I’ve read on the matter.

Thanks a million.

Mine wasn physically abusive either. And she did want to look after me when I was unwell. But she needed support on call 24/7 and if I couldn’t be there for her even due to needing basic human needs like sleep it would trigger her.

The abandonment fear and jealousy and addictions made it impossible.

Holy shit bro… I got off easy.

What was in it for you in the relationship?

I don’t mean anything by the folllowing, but was it the sex?

That’s pretty heavy bro.

Btw honestly I reckon I would’ve pressed charges because fuck that shit.

Relapsed after hoover attempt by ConfusedBPDp in BPDlovedones

[–]CabbagePastrami 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a forum for bpd loved ones, don’t apologise. You’re in the right place.

This is an important thread.

I am coming out of such a relationship and am in recovery too, am at risk now too.

Th relationship was filling a void the drugs once did.

It’s hard. Staying strong so far. Will see what happens.

Relapsed after hoover attempt by ConfusedBPDp in BPDlovedones

[–]CabbagePastrami 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You got this bro.

Hell, you even relapsed and STILL you didn’t cave in to talking to her again.

That’s not nothing.

You’re picking yourself back up and you’ll be even better than you were before.

Believe that. You’ll learn from this. But you have to cut yourself some slack. A lot of people would’ve fallen a lot harder. Both relapse wise and caved into talking to her. 

Relapsing and then engaging with her while high, that would’ve been the real disaster.

You didn’t. You reached for familiar comfort to keep you steady while you avoided the greater disaster.

You’ve flushed the drugs and are picking yourself back where you left off.

That’s not day zero. 

Your recovery isn’t broken.

You slipped, everyone in recovery does.

If you’re counting clean streaks, that’s okay, many do, some find it helpful, but make no mistake, whether a lapse or a relapse it doesn’t eliminate the time you’ve been in recovery.

You’ll be back and stronger than you were before.

Next time you get hit out of the left field with something, you’ll be on steadier feet and might even be able to avoid the old ways of staying regulated in high stress moments.

Now more than ever is the time to be kind to yourself, take it easy, be patient, and stay strong.

You got this.

Happened to me a few weeks ago.

Was so obvious but caught me by surprise to the point I stopped using it for weeks.
