I have recently (within the last month) been diagnosed with BPD as well as PTSD and depression. What a ball of fun I am!! I have a DV charge against me right now because of my manipulation about attempt suicide. Just wanted to say hi to everyone and hopefully after my past 13 days of therapy I will be able to help at least one person. I don't start DBT until January.

Thanks for listening!

My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

    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.
