Why is it that when we realize we have Bipolar and its time to address it something completely critical had to happen?
See I had my suspicions about BPD for a very long time. I just shrugged it off and assumed it was the rest of the world. Now I have one divorce (though I dont mind that, I was physically abused) and I am separated from the man I love. I have three children but only see one as the other two are with their dads.
I feel like a complete waste of space for not saving my family and taking control of my life. For those of you who are religious, will you slip a prayer in tonight for me. You see, my husband still loves me, though he's in the UK and I'm here in St. Louis, MO. He cannot take the verbal abuse I gave him (and it was bad), the constant financial struggle because I couldn't keep a job, and my constant nagging for affection in inappropriate ways.
I imagine alot of you may think I sound like such a failure, I know I see myself this way. Have any of you lost your family due to BPD? Perhaps just to know I am not alone would help so very much.

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...
