Bordeline Personality Disorder

I am doing this blog in the hopes of helping people with "BPD" and to help family and friends and those who do not have BPD to perhaps understand us better. Also to learn from others at the same time. I am 36 years old and I was diagnosed with BPD about 2 years ago. I am fortunate enough to be in a fantastic treatment center for 2 years and i know that depending on where people live, many places do not have treatment at all. I will be sharing VERY PERSONAL information because i think it is important people understand and in the hopes that my story can help someone who has felt the same or went through similar experiences, hopefully they can relate. I would like to share experiences and things I have learned in therapy and hear people's stories and experiences. Please do not self diagnose yourself if you find you have many of the symptoms of Borderline personality disorder. I also am not a doctor or therapist so everything I post is from my own experiences and what I have learned so far about BPD. Everyone is welcome to share their stories, offer tips and such but if anyone is disrespectful I will remove your posts. I hope this will be a way to inform and help people including myself. Thank you

Things i keep to help make me feel better

This morning i received a beautiful card in the mail from someone i consider family. It made my day with tears of joy. Just a simple card of encouragment and support. Really meant a lot to me. So i put it next to a few things i keep. I got another card a few months a ago from my best friend with very kind words about myself which i keep as well. I have some letters or notes from my parents and family as well. When i am feeling bad about myself or having a bad day, i will often read these beautiful words and it cheers me right up. I thought i would share since i find its a simple way to make yourself feel better. Keep those little things that make you feel good and go look at them when you are having a bad day :o) Thanks for reading me :o)
