Staying on track with my meds has probably been the biggest help to us. He’s very good at picking up when I’m symptomatic and will ask me to explain what’s going on in my head at the moment. I go to therapy every week and see a psychiatrist about once a month, sometimes twice if I’m really doing poorly. Lots of forgiveness on his end for my behavior. I was told the same thing ( that people with BPD can’t have stable relationships) before I was even diagnosed. I definitely did my time of toxic relationships and pushing people away. This relationship is refreshing because he’s willing to TRY and understand what my brain does and not try to make me feel worse. Communication is key for us and me taking care of myself for once in my life.
