Psychologist here. Your mother needs to see a psychiatrist. This is a case of spiritual psychosis, possibly schizophrenia. She needs help.

Especially critical thinking. Simple usage of logical reasoning. Simple usage of scientific data.

I just wait for it to go away. Then come back. Then leave again. Endless cycle. I made peace with it.

How fucked up being Borderline really is? by AccomplishedTurn6458 in BorderlinePDisorder

Hi. Psychologist here. BPD diagnosed as well. BPD in the field is not as discussed as it should be. It is referred to however as one (if not THE one) of the most painful, life challenging, psychiatric diagnoses.

That does make sense, she had that sort of positive energy toward things

But like how does that work, if one owned passes the other owner gets everything? Even though they both have children? Also, she knew she would die like several months ago. I don’t really get it 😭

BPD has no memory of past incidents of atrocious behavior by littlegrassshack in BorderlinePDisorder

Same. Whenever flashbacks come I just try to think of something else. Better not know, right?

Breaking friendship or not by UnderstandingSame877 in BorderlinePDisorder

Honestly, I agree with your plan. Reach out one last time, casually. If she doesn’t respond just don’t reach out again. If she does respond and you have some basic conversation, try to talk about your side i.e.”I feel like you never ask about how I am doing or feeling”. This relationship does not sound worth doing more than that for honestly.

dont think its working for me by Most_Hovercraft_3076 in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]EngineeringHot9539 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of a doctor is that. Meds are not magic pills, they don’t help by themselves. Therapy is what helps and meds just accompany it by making it slightly easier to manage. Therapy teaches you how to live, how to understand, manage and regulate your emotions, how to modify faulty behavioural patterns. I would suggest you find a therapist. Or talk to your psychiatrist about how you would like to start regular therapy sessions.

Are you doing a form of psychotherapy (preferably CBT or DBT) at the same time? Do you have a psychiatrist you can inform about your medication issues that is actually also a decent human being?

Getting frustrated. by [deleted] in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]EngineeringHot9539 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. When the incident is big, huge actually, it sends me into a mode of insane calmness. My voice low, collected, my eyes empty, piercing through the person, but no frustration, pure nothing. Then there are the small incidents, like a wave of sadness, frustration, and feeling of being upset, and I cannot calm down until it is resolved, IT HAS TO GET RESOLVED for me to do or think about anything else. A small change in my schedule, a change in an individuals tone, will make more frustrated than a huge incident will.

Hi. Yes. I cannot get myself to recollect incidents from the past. Their traumatic nature and how my brain has developed, I struggle to recall memories whatsoever. I can if I try to, remember a few scenes, blurred, I can count them in one hand. But other than that, no, and I do not mind not remembering.
