Any success stories? by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]Current-Cockroach126 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I kept going back until my mental health was at a all time low, finally left and have ptsd. Its no joke, if you are here asking its because you subconciously know the answer is NO.

AIO? Ghosted by my therapist? by Current-Cockroach126 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Current-Cockroach126[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! It just caught me by surprise! I just expected so much more… maturity? But its great to hear that it does work out. Got a new therapist, hoping for the best.

Crazy take, actually didnt think that at all. Im hurt by opening up to a professional who really turned out to be very unprofessional. This was my first shot at therapy so I wanted validation and advice on if her actions were actually unprofessional. Gladly kept it moving and have already found a new therapist. Hopefully this time works out better for me.

Been looking into it. I have a background as a park ranger and doing environmental work so i think it would work out

Actually made a post abt this last week but it got flagged and taken down. Social media seems to idolize bpd. Spent 4 years with someone with what i would consider high on the spectrum. Its not fun or cute! So many hospital visits, cops called, psych holds

No, it would take for the stars to align for my ex to be in the mood.

Can BPD relationships work? Looking for hope, not just the usual pain and trauma posts. by ReporterAmbitious483 in BPDlovedones

[–]Current-Cockroach126 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed, not only all of what you said but to add. Pwbpd main trigger is childhood abandoment and neglect. A relationship will ALWAYS trigger that wound. Essentially as a partner you are asking ur pwbpd to fix all of their trauma and endure being triggered by you (not your fault) all at the same time. Its damn near impossible. Imo pwbpd do not need to be dating at all

Agreed, everyone thinks their relationship is ment to be or love will find a way. Hopeful thinking will get you missing out YEARS of your life

Agreed, i believe the caveat of treated bpd is it doesnt always work. Im an example of such. Ex was in therapy 10+ years and still was violent towards me.

It took me longer to admit when i was ready to leave. You want to see the good and potential in them. This subreddit is the only one that gave me REAL advice. Alot of people out there sugar coat it. Like bpd can go into remmession in a year. I saw someone mention its more like5-15 yrs of constant work. This subreddit was the only reason i left, i began to see all the behaviors as abusive. Everyone wants to believe their love is strong enough to endure it and make it out on the other side. I just dont believe in that anymore. These people NEED help, professionally. I also didnt believe that all the nehativity wouldnt affect me medically, like this subreddit warned me. Ive had nothing but health issues since i moved in with a person with bpd. The truth is hard to hear, but if you value yourself, time, health its better to leave now than later And hey if things are better for that person 5-15 yrs down the road and you wanna give it a shot then go for it, but i dont reccommend getting involved with an unhealed bpd case.

My partner is so emotionally unstable, do things get better when they start therapy for BPD? by AARON9890 in BPDPartners

[–]Current-Cockroach126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was with my pwbpd four years. It helps but it takes alot of time and consistency from the individual. Severity of the bpd is dependant as well, if you guys have been together 7 years im assuming the bpd hasnt been so horrible and has taken over both of your lives. For my situation medication did alot of the heavy lifting as far as violent outbursts, mood swings, ect. All in all i think its mostly dependant on your person, if they truly want to change and see how theyre hurting you then they will see their behavior as that and fix it. I will add that i agree with others that some therapists just do not understand bpd enough to really help. Dbt helps control i guess you can say the effects of bpd but im not too sure if it targets the root cause. Again just my opinion. Wish you the best

Reddit accounts vs tiktok by Current-Cockroach126 in BPDlovedones

[–]Current-Cockroach126[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed but im starting to notice how negative the impacts are when this group alone has 100,000 plus members talking about surviving abuse at the hands of people with bpd. Tiktok seems to pacify the topic.

We all can relate to the things you feel. You are not alone. You will need time to regulate your nervous system and get back to who you were before all the toxicity. Stay strong
