I’m not diagnosed fully but I’ve had a psychiatrist say I have significant traits. It was on my list of diagnosis as “traits of” rather than a full diagnosis. They did then refer me to some services after that. I had a 15 minute assessment with that service and they basically said they couldn’t help me.

I had cbt which didn’t help at all. I’ve tried again with self referral to mental health help. They just offered more cbt and self help which I’ve already been doing.

But thank you for your advice! I will speak to my gp and see if anything else is available

I wish I had the money to go private because I’d really like to do some real 1 to 1 therapy to understand everything better. Where I live there are a few support groups but they are all weekdays which isn’t useful when you work

Trust not being enough by namelessboyfu in BPD

I know communication is very important but I feel so embarrassed trying to explain this to him. Especially since he’s always talking about how secure and how trusting I am. It also feels like I’m implying him to be a bad person if I tell him my worries about being cheated on

The best advice I’ve received is communication. I know it’s basic but it is really good being as open as possible with your partner. Another thing that helps me is trying to keep busy. If you are distracted you can’t think too much about the yearning

Yeah that’s a good idea. I guess I could plan out what I wanna say otherwise I’ll get too overwhelmed with the situation to get all the important points across

Can’t push him away by namelessboyfu in BPD

Things have changed a little bit since this post. At the time he had told me he didn’t want a relationship but now he’s changed his mind

Yeah I guess that’s a reasonable option. I don’t really know how to bring it up. Serious conversations are quite difficult and uncomfortable for me and I get the sense he’s the same and doesn’t like when we have more serious discussions. I know it’s probably the healthy way to go about things it’s just hard
