BPD you also hear voices. Talk to a professional about it.

to me sounds like major depression. But like i said talk to a professional about it.

BPD has a list of criteria of which you are supposed to have a certain number before diagnosis. However BPD means that you manipulate others and unable to maintain relationships. If you SI then you are more likely to be diagnosed than if there were other criteria. The downside if being diagnosed BPD is that you will be seen as being difficult to treat.

i have BPD it sucks, perhaps thats why i SI

I got it to and it sucks coz i dont believe i ahve it and im being sent to a speciel unit coz of it its called main house and its in birmingham:(.

I've read your symptoms. I think that one thing to ask yourself would be to ask yourself what your efforts at avoiding abandonment are like. (ie: are they frantic?) Also, what have your relationships been like? Unstable? Stable? Do you find that you really love a person and then hate them just as much?

These are a couple of things to think about. Talk to a professional who can actually talk with you and get a better sense of who you are.

i felt ill a few wks ago an went to A n E with a friend. although i didnt really want to go cos i thought ppl would jst say its attention seeking. anyway when wee got there we saw a nurse an he asked loads of questions an i couldnt talk to him my friend mentioned i was worried about what ppl will think. {i wish she haded of said anything.} but the nurse says oh well dnt think anyone can help maybe its jst a personality disorder i was like what the fuck is that an your not even a mental health team so how can u know whats wrong with me. i jst walked out cos i thought basically he was saying its attention seeking. since then a few ppl have mwntioned personality disorder.

mavumarri, you don't hear voices when you have BPD >_> I should know, I have it. And self diagnosing is never good. If you think you might seriously be affected, then talk to a doctor...

I hear Voices and i got BPD?

i have bpd...at times i heard voices....but i wonder if that was medication cuz when i stopped taking my meds it all stopped...

im not self diagnosing, its jut that i'm looking into this so I know what im walking into when I do go to get help, I just dont like to be blind sighted is all

thanks everybody i really appreciate it *hug*

From what i know about BPD and i once had a friend diagnosed with this...there is a great deal of overdosing and suicide attempts associated with this illness-sounds to me like you could just be seriously depressed ...are you seeing a therapist that could help with the diagnostic evaluation?

nope, no one seems to believe me...I tell them how i feel (i cant tell them about the SI though because they'll skip therapy and put me straight into the hospital) but anyways, they just say things arent that bad get over it, and leave it at that......so I'm now trying to talk to the therapist at my school

Yah. Sounds exactly like BPD. After my psychiatrist diagnosed me with it, he said there is no help for BPD and he fired me. I have only heard really negative stuff about BPH. According to some, we are the bottom of the barrel. I know EXACTLY how you feel. Take care.
