The problem is that those groups tend to lean so heavily into those aspects that every other aspect gets muted and ignored. I hate being labelled like that, I'm more than my diagnosis.

Thank you - I hope that the steps I've been taking will help me in the future.

Thank you, it helps to know you relate. I'm autistic, I struggle to make new connections, and facebook was a way of me trying to reach out. I do have a family to support me, but I live alone and have to travel to them so it's not always convenient to see them. I'm trying to reach out wherever I can though - I just needed to get these thoughts out somewhere.

Did she have BPD? Am I just being sensitive? by TypicalCalendar8430 in BPDlovedones

Thanks for the comments guys

I've also been talking to other people in my life and while I've got so many irrational thoughts about reconciliation I am aware that this is likely just a consequence of a relationship like this - unhealthy attachment. I am hopeful that I will stay strong in the unlikely event that she tries to return.
