I am new to this site as of today, and was wondering if anyone out there was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder? I am doing DBT right now, seeing a therapist, seeing a psychiatrist, and am on several medications for my cutting and depression. Does anyone else have a BPD diagnosis? I'd love to learn a little more about it from actual people rather than books and online stuff.

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? 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 use CBT and DBT, counselling and medication.
I'm usually very stable with my BPD and have gained a lot of control but still wish to have more over my emotions/feelings and 're' actions as I call them!
For real good assistance with gaining control get your counsellor (if you have one) to speak to your GP and have them work together with you...it has been very valuable for me.
Hope this helps, drop me a line anytime
