Personality disorders form a class of mental disorders that are characterized by long-lasting rigid patterns of thought and behaviour. Personality disorders are seen by the American Psychiatric Association as an enduring pattern of inner experience and behavior that deviates markedly from the expectations of the culture of the individual who exhibits it.

I'm happy to see so many young adults recognizing what their needs are. I am almost 38 years old. I swear I don't feel almost 38. I don't think I look that old either. I realize 38 is not old, its just hard to realize I've been on the planet dealing with all this stuff for so long.
I have noticed there are young adults in there 20's already aware of themselves. I'm happy for them. When I was in my 20's I was still looking for love in all the wrong places and totally lost. I would have loved to have had the support of this site back then.

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...
I am glad to see others of my age and younger who are taking the neccissary steps to make themselves stronger people who can embrace life and make it worthwhile before they lose the chance.
Then a few years ago, I broke down again. It began with being unsatisfied with my work because I started a difficult job where much training was needed. Being a perfectionist and ALWAYS striving to be the very best at my job, I developed a lot of anxiety and, at times, depression which lead to severe panic attacks. Shortly after, my work was done. It has only gotten worse since then. Now I have about nine hospitalizations under my belt and many, MANY hours of therapy. I've been on most every psychotropic drug known to man, and as a result, have developed a high tolerance to meds. I am now said to suffer from Bipolar I Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Panic Disorder, and sometimes, psychosis is added because of my delusional thinking.
I don't think it would ever have been possible for me to make it to 30 without knowing the things I know. I am extremely self destructive and wouldn't have been able to avoid a hospital for that long, and having been treated by so many doctors and therapists who all seem to say the same things of me, I can't deny my numerous dx's. I just pray to God that, someway, somehow...the life ahead of me is a better one. I've had enough of this one.
