I am really frazzled about going to my fiances parents house tomorrow. They are really kind, but I have been having ECT for the last 6 months and have a terrible time rememberin things. I dont remember meeting his brothers, and I have twice. He has told his Dad who is a Pastor that I have bipolar, and I am going to feel like a total outcast, because I have agorophobia, GAD on top of my BPD. My boyfriend says they arent judging me. I dont know how to act. We are engaged, he loves my for my whole personality and doesnt judge me just by my BPD. Why am I so stressed? It took me a half hour to type this message because I cant even type well due to memory problems. Any Help?????

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
As for thanksgiving, try and keep your head up, you have nothing to be ashamed of, it seems to me you've internalised a lot of stigma and are applying it yourself. Maybe yr BF's parents are as open-minded as their son, why assume the reverse? They are people to who've no doubt had their own challenges in life...So yeah, try and keep that in mind and be kind to yourself. Best luck.
peace, teresa
