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

Being surrounded by good people

I have always believed that one attracts what is in their lives. I lost a ton of friends when i was diagnosed with  bi polar and bpd. It really hurt for a while. Now that i look back though i realise they were not good people for me and it is for the best. Most of those people were toxic to me and vice versa.

I have had a good friend for the past years. I met her at a cafe where i go and she was a waitress there. Lately we have become really good friends and quite close. She is calm, very relaxed and positive. Now i have met her two fabulous roomates which are the same. Then i noticed i started attracted the same type of people. For example i was at the dog park the other day and a girl started chatting with me, she was super nice. It's been happening more and more.

In the last weeks, i have also met my friend's friends. I have met her family etc etc. It makes a huge difference in my life.

In no way am i saying i am cured but it really makes a difference. Something to consider perhaps take a good look around you and see what type of friends you have it may change a part of your life.


Thanks for reading me :o)
