i cant even speak right now i am so angry and distraught.
my mum has just come home for the first time in about 3 months.
she knows i am ill again.
she sat me down and told me she had to speak to me
about a year ago when i saw a pdoc because of depression/anxiety etc.
she told me that when she had a private conversation with the doctor without me present ( i didnt get that at the time)
the doctor told her i have borderline personality disorder.
my mum told the dr not to tell me. because she thinks its not an illness.
just me being a brat.
ive been lied to.
denied help.
all because my mum doesnt believe this illness is valid.
i am absolutely. beyond words right now.

I find myself going places in the car and not wanting to get out of the car. I come back home and I don't want to get out of the car. I think it's the only time I spend reflecting. Chronic tiredness from Long Covid plus the immunosupressing meds for my Crohn's is slowing me down but everything just seems a massive effort. I am dealing with the paperwork following my father's death but it's not...

Wow, it's the middle of the week already!Today is our 11 year anniversary, so we're going out to a nice dinner. I'm losing a lot of sleep these days, hence a wonky schedule and uncomfortable feelings. But I know it will pass, eventually.I hope all of you have a peaceful day, and may good things come your way!

Mush you are rightly upset and this situation is very diofficult for you - whizz I see you are trying to help.
I get that you both have your reasons for writing as you are and that you are both right - it's just not coming over that way and you will end up clashing further.
I don't want anyone getting warnings etc.
i will indeed just ignore this now because genuinely.
LOL
When you put up your hallucination posts you say you feel like you are lying trying to tell people about them.. when hallucinations and delusions came up for me.. i wasnt concerned about convincing others. Because since that was my reality it didnt need treatment.. but the crippling anxiety and depression.. those needed treatment.. you don't believe anything else when delusional but what you believe and convincing others really isn't a goal.its more like.. stuck in another dimension and there is no help. Who cares of anyone believes.. because it is happening to you.
I'm sorry your mom held off what the doc thought and didn't seek the proper help for you in the meanwhile. That does suck. Bipolar and borderline.. both either.. the fact remains that you are not getting any help and I'm glad you will finally see a doc soon and get to a treatment plan that best suits you.
this is not my first experience with psychosis.
therefore i know what is happening and i know i need to get it fixed.
is that bad ? because it seems i should just bugger off from this board now you all think ive got borderline. funny.
i can attach myself to anything
so im just going because its ridiculous im half way through one thing
and then something explodes and then im just a wreck
and i cant say what i want
and i dont want to be a bitch
i left that hosptial a different person. they dont understand people change and grow.
this is why i am so angry because i know i have changed and i have made the effort to change and be aware and be positive.
these things that happen now its like it just creeps up on me and i never know when its not something i recognise as a controllable behaviour. its like someones got a switchboard.
pressing random buttons and seeing what the fuck happens.
its nothing personal. just me venting online and forgetting there are other humans behind the keyboard.
