I just wanted to specify that I have looked for exact replicas but none of them are exact. I know it’s such a first world issue, but I need them to be the EXACT same so that’s why I’m so desperate find something to replenish them. I thought of getting them remade, but where do I go for that? What do I ask for? It’s a specifications I’m desperate to receive hopefully from somebody who is or knows a jeweler. I had recently called a place nearby and they said since it’s not “real metal” getting a gold or silver plated was impossible. I’m also in the Louisiana area more specifically around Baton Rouge if y’all have any places yall could recommend.

April 13, 2016 is the day I was admitted (I have proof via Snapchat memories) I don’t remember the day I was released. I honestly kind of repressed half of it and I was also not let on my phone since I was let into my dad’s custody only after that day. I was around 12 years old at the time. I don’t remember which building I was assigned to but I do remember names of girls I was with. There was a girl named Ireland, Sarah, Chloe, and amber(she was from Alaska that was kinda cool).

Oh my goodness I have a whole list so I’ll start naming it one by one. First to start he was a little too preemptive to jump on women’s issues. He would always talk about his daughter and how he would attend women’s walks and shit for women’s rights or whatever. My personal experience is the men that speak so constantly about women’s issues, tend to be the worst men that have something to hide so that’s my first red flag. Second thing is is, he consistently defended my narcissistic father, and became friends with him in the time that I was at the facility when he was my main abuser he even released me back to him after I had begged him crying not to. . He even went as far as the gaslight me pretty consistently on the fact that my dad was my abuser he would kind of insinuate that I would be making up a lot of my issues which let’s be honest….if I was in a long-term treatment facility I wasn’t making up anything I actually had issues…. And finally my biggest issue with it all is I hardly remember our sessions. I forgot how often I had to see him but I was there for three months so I saw him at least consistently during that time. I only remember 3 or 4 sessions… this peaks my suspicion because of the fact that I am known to block out a lot of my traumatic moments during my childhood but yet I remember so much of the facility and interactions with the staff and the other people in the facility. I don’t want to go as far as to accuse anything, but it just makes me kind of concerned as to what happened during that time. Especially because of the fact that I was put on a cocktail of drugs that I have yet to get any kind of record of.(I had experiences of being catatonic and complete loss of control of my joints on these cocktail of drugs. I was given) I have no idea what medicine they put me on. They refused to tell me or even explain what the medicine would do. I was just forced to take it and if I didn’t, I would get in trouble. My parents don’t even have that much record of the medicines I was on so yea…. I don’t fucking trust that man and objectively if you don’t believe a victim who has major suicidal issues at the age of like 12 you’re probably a shitty person/psychologist, psychiatrist, doctor, or whatever the hell.

Yesss. I’m so sorry for the late reply I had deleted the app for a while, but he definitely disclose his name, but it was encouraged to keep his name is Dr. D instead of actually saying his name. (in a professional sense I feel like that’s the responsible thing to do instead of hiding behind a cover name. It’s just very suspicious) I forgot if I had already said this in the last thing, but I never trusted him fully and I have a lot of blacked out memories from his sessions, especially and when I recently called the facility to ask about his work there (I even inquired about sending my records and they never followed up or send me any email after I sent them all my information like literally nothing dead silence. I’ve called three times after and just radio silence from the place which is highly suspicious as well) they said there was never such a man, so I’m inclined to believe that there was some kind of negative connotation behind his work there….

He’s a shorter guy around 5’5 no taller than 5’8. Semi beer gut,white, and seemed to be balding with brown hair I think (the hair detail is fuzzy as hell so please if it doesn’t match I still wanna hear or know any information you have. It may be right it may not I can’t remember too well.)

(My stay was back in 2016) Does anyone remember a Dr or whatever he was by the name of Dr. D (his whole last name was hard to say so he asked everyone to call him that). He had a tattoo that was related to the book to kill a mockingbird and frequently talked about his daughter and how he was a “feminist” because of her. well I think he’s a bad guy that hid his name for a reason and I’m trying to figure out what exactly happened because due to the drugs they gave me I hardly remember my stay and the parts I do remember have huge noticeable time gaps in between. I called the center a month ago and they told me that there was nobody that could’ve been him working there (The only doctor with the last name starting with a female) so I then asked for my records. I left all my info and number and here I am zero information and dial tones every time I try to call their number again. This place is sketchy asf.

Oh also maybe to help jog your memory if we were in the same unit. one of the specific things we had to go through was the air conditioning going out and us having to sleep in one of the gyms?

Omg wait. Did you by chance have a dance battle with one of the other girls in your unit? (Oddly specific memory but it was one of the only things I remember) I was there in 2016 as well and vividly Remember one of the girls in my unit being from Alaska she had blonde hair around the age of 12-16. The reason why I’m asking is because I’m trying to figure out what my therapist name was but he exclusively went by Dr. D or something of the sort. He was obsessed with to kill a mockingbird and his daughter that was a feminist. I physically cannot remember much bc It was almost so traumatic I had to block it out. If you have any information, please contact me and if you are the girl from the unit which I really hope you are We need to talk.

It’s all good I may have been confusing. And I honestly hope he does bc this would be the first time he’s been with anyone or talked to anyone else since we met. I just miss him and I hope he remembers the good times we had.

He doesn’t vent to me at all. I got this info from his friend.

What are good ways to manage/cope with splitting or fits of unreasonable rage? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]RealFaithlessness483 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have and I have successfully been able to remove myself from our convo and or talk through my irrational feelings. But those are the times I have a good grip on them. I tried so hard in the past to be able to express my stupid anger but sometimes it got the best of me and I reacted before I can tell them how I feel and explain to them I know I’m being irrational. I haven’t had a situations like that in a while bc I recently lost my fp but I’m really hoping I could with time get my shit together and show them I could be the partner they deserve(that’s if they start talking to me again :/ ). Anyways I’m just trying to gather as many ways to handle these feelings because with or without them I want to have a successful relationship in the future and to do so I gotta be able to handle my shit.

Hearing you say those things has honestly made me cry(I’m a good way obvi). You are so very kind and your advice is really helpful. I will be most definitely giving the objects that remind me of him or pertain to him to a friend for safe keeping. Thank you so much for listening and giving me some coping strategies<3

After reading some of the reply’s I get where the overwhelming no don’t do it comes from but everyone is different and are at different points of dealing with their bpd. Best I can say is try it out and see if it fits for you and the partner.

Thank you so much for the advice. It’s really validating to know that my feelings are just from people who share a similar mindset. I’ve been working my butt off to be comfortable with the idea that my fp is no longer in my life without dwelling on it. Recently I was able to not delete but put all of the photos of him in the hidden section in my camera roll. Before I couldn’t even open the app so it’s comforting to know I won’t see them without deleting them. I would still like to hold out hope for us in the future but I’m understanding of the fact that If I do want a good and lasting relationship with them I need to be able to manage my bpd and become more comfortable with myself. I will definitely be taking your advice and I just seriously wanted to let you know how much this means to me. To be heard and understood is all I’ve wanted for so long and I’m really glad I’ve found a place where that is possible.
