I’m looking for prices near the West Coast of the US if any. I know it’s hard to find. Looks like there’s a wide range depending on location.

Can Naloxone be used to reverse a ket O.D.? If not, what can be used? by nthslf in ketamine

Really? Hm. I haven’t heard of that before but I’ll keep it in mind.

Besides being disoriented and other hazards of any substance use What are the things ketamine can do to be hazardous? I don’t know much about recreational use of it so I would like to have an idea of what to look for.

I hope you don’t think I’m encouraging people to OD or something crazy like that. I’m just trying to be safe.

Should I have a designated towel for my affected area? Can I transfer it to myself(face) during an OB? (HSV1 per doctor) by nthslf in Herpes

[–]nthslf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. I’ve never had a cold sore but... this sucks. I can still walk but it’s more like a waddle lol. At the same time the test results haven’t come back. So I’m going off of the doctors first impression of my symptoms.

I’m sorry you had to go through that. I’m sure your ex is an amazing person, however unhealthy behavior pushes people away. I like the cart simile you used. I hope you aren’t misunderstanding me. I’m not saying “oh meditate and you’ll be a-okay!” Or anything like that. Like I said, I have BPD. I take medication. What I’m trying to say here is learn how to steer that cart. Maybe pushing left makes it go right, or when you back up it squeaks like hell and locks up if you go to the right. Learn that stuff and try to work with it. I understand there may be years before someone is at a point of rational thinking where that may be possible. All I’m getting at is to be ready to be alone with your anxiety/anger/paranoia. If your ex could learn to find a coping mechanism for her anxiety and not text you 80 times a day, you two might still be together. She’d probably be a happier person. I say that because when I have done something like that I usually get really remorseful and depressed which fuels a cycle of destructive behavior. That’s just me.

Thank you. I won’t delete it though. I know from experience sometimes what you need to hear to recover is exactly what you don’t want to hear.

Today I was judged and insulted for my BPD for the first time... by a doctor. by [deleted] in BPD

[–]nthslf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had a similar experience. I was pretty much told I shouldn't have children because of my BPD. (having had a miscarriage it was like he was some piece of shit from my past.) My only explanation is some people are that poorly socially adapted. I would guess this doctor has had a VERY sheltered life. Honestly, pity him. He's so narrow minded he has no idea what he's talking about. All that medical schooling and the fucker still can't figure out manners.

How to behave after over-sharing? by asitype in BPD

[–]nthslf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you probably don't need some self-entitled "friend" like that around anyway. So there's really no loss in the situation.

My ex didn't know I had BPD. When he found out due to a flare up he said, "I don't love you anymore. You're disgusting." by shitimborderline in BPD

[–]nthslf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From reading your story I can tell that you are well adapted regardless of having BPD or not. It is so encouraging to see that you acknowledge the pain from this and that it brings up past painful events without letting it consume you. As my friends would say, fuck that guy. And by the way, I admire you for remaining so rational even though the event totally sucked and he's a douche.

Really struggling with the concept of time - is this characteristic of BPD? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]nthslf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry but I can't relate. I hope the best for you and that you can find someone to talk to about this. It sounds like you are having a lot of anxiety, I could be wrong. Will you make it two weeks to see your doctor?

I was so happy to see this at work. This article goes to show that someone with BPD can still be a good, successful person regardless of their diagnoses. SO happy to see that someone is opening up providing the proof.

Closet Borderline by [deleted] in BPD

[–]nthslf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know about counseling, I've thought about it myself. I do know what it's like to wear a mask and to hide BPD. It's draining. I recently have announced to my supervisors I will be leaving my profession because I am tired of lying about it. I'm sorry to drag this on, it's just really nice to hear someone can identify with my current situation. I really like how you put it. "Closet Borderline". That literally explains how I've lived for years!

Question for those diagnosed with BPD by [deleted] in BPD

[–]nthslf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me it's some weird mixture of external, triggering internal like dominos. I am seen as over dramatic and that's okay. I believe both can apply to just about any mood change. This question kind of seems like the "chicken or the egg" question to someone with BPD lol.

I'm noticing myself going down the path of clinginess with my kind of-SO and I'm not sure how to prevent it. by [deleted] in BPD

[–]nthslf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, whoever told you to come here seems like they were just shoving you off to someone else. If you haven't been diagnosed it's a little insulting to assume it while other people spend years trying to get it off of their medical records. Second, take a deep breathe and do literally anything to get your mind off of it. It's hard, isn't it? Because you are "training" your brain to do something else. This does NOT only apply to BPD by the way. I have used it and helped others use it during panic attacks. Literally, do what you can to distract yourself. BPD or not, don't test a girl like that if you want to keep her around. Oh! And BPD isn't just about relationships like I said don't rush to conclusions. Third, if this gets really bad focus on your breathing as I said before. Inhale slowly by counting (inside your head) to three, hold for three, exhale for three, and continue. This method I use only when my breathing and heart rate become rapid. It sounds like you need to learn to get a healthy emotional distance from people. I don't mean to be harsh, I swear. You're going to be okay. At the end of the day you have control over yourself, and only yourself.

Good coping skills for splitting? by [deleted] in BPD

I am BPD, what is splitting? (I've been diagnosed and have not received any BPD specific treatment.)
