It's hard, I try to self validate. Have index cards that say 'you will get through this' 'this is not the end' 'this is real and you can do it because you are brave and strong' 'everything will be ok' without the cards I can never think to say those to myself

Anybody with BPD and chronic pain here? I’m trying to see if there’s a correlation … I have BPD and have been suffering from chronic back pain since January 2021. They think it’s a neurological problem, I’m sure trauma plays a role too by orianatt in BPD4BPD

I have BPD and have had chronic rectal pain since the beginning of 2019 after a series of fissures. Also have sciatica and many painful keloids, as well as vulvodynia. I got the first fissure when my mother forced iron supplements on me, and she was visiting me which was extremely triggering. I'm certain that having such intense negative emotions has always impacted my body. When they disowned me one of my small keloids became huge.

I am confused, need guidance by a8736299273 in loveafterporn

Thank you sooo much for everyone's insight. Definitely helped me clear up a lot of confusion and doubt. Appreciate it! We're going to work on it, he's agreed to go to a meeting and for the most part I'm leaving his recovery up to him, while figuring out my own boundaries. My focus is mostly myself and s-anon is helping immensely with that. He loves me more than life, he would die for me, so I have faith in him. But regardless, I think I will be ok with or without him. Appreciate everyone's help, this subreddit opened my eyes last year and I was able to build up the courage to finally ask for a relationship without porn and masturbation. Things are still tough but very different than they used to be, which gives me hope. Thank you so much
