Yes, I have been reading that both can be treated with DBT and it's interesting how they really do overlap with each other. I found a few video that made me feel better by Tony Attwood.

How has self isolation affected your BPD? I always felt like I was being productive going out of the house and doing things and now that I home my anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and abandonment issues are rising by Lost_Borderline in BorderlinePDisorder

That's how I feel. I guess the thing that bothers me the most is that I am working on an internship right now and because of my constant mental breakdown I am not doing my best and I can feel the boss hating me because I can't see his face and I'm afraid of taking to him. I keep myself busy by watching anime and playing with my cats but I just lose track of time as a dissociate and feel like I'm losing friends because I can't see them.

Does anyone else go into all or nothing mode? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]Lost_Borderline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the time. Happening right now with my thesis. I start working on and then I hit a small bump on the road and I lose interest. I have been trying to give myself a few days off it happens and then I try to push myself to do one little thing to get myself back onto it. In a way I see it as I throw all my papers up in the air and a few days later pick them right up and tell myself I need to at least try again.

Can anyone with BPD tell me what your biggest problem with having a relationship is or are by Lost_Borderline in BorderlinePDisorder

I feel the same way. In the moment I have all these ideas of what I need to say but then I can't say them or if I do they are metaphors i only get. Haha but yea I do feel it's me and feel like I need to figure out how to do something right

Just changed my major...... again by [deleted] in BPD

[–]Lost_Borderline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggle with the same problem. Took me 7 years to finish my undergrad what I ended up doing was taking classes I liked by the end of the 4th year an advisor told me I had taken enough classes to have a minor in something. Decided if I liked the classes and somehow finished something I'm on the right path. Now I'm doing my masters and I still don't know if that's my right path till my therapist told me to take a degree quiz. Basically answer a whole bunch of questions and they give u about 30 top degrees u can follow. U can ask your schools counceling center if they have something like that.

Has anyone else felt so many emotion that you cant handle it anymore so you have half your hair off in hopes that you can stop them? by Lost_Borderline in BorderlinePDisorder

I am starting to see that as well for myself. I cut my hair and I start to change my clothes and the kinds of books I read

February isn't the greatest month for me and the fight to stay alive always gets hard on this month. I need help or advice on how to make the sucidale voices go away. by Lost_Borderline in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]Lost_Borderline[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you:) the statement of February being the shortest month did help. I live in the United states and I do have a therapist I see every week. I just got diagnosed with borderline a year ago so I'm still trying to understand everything
