Borderline Personality Disorder

[Creed of Heresy]

Captain, you're too awesome to be a narcissist.

First: Don't care who you are. You start shit in this thread, you make an enemy out of me. I'm not in the mood to be dealing with internet pissing contests, I'm not inviting a discussion as to whether or not mental disorders are illnesses or diseases or what the fuck ever else these threads devolve into here, and I am not inviting eugenics horse-shit into this.

Second: This is a thread made partially out of curiosity, and asks a few simple questions. I included the poll to give me some idea of numbers. Namely, do you have BPD? Suspect it? Have others telling you you have it possibly? Known anyone else who has it? If you have it, how do you deal with it, at all, and if you don't have it but know someone who does, what's it like dealing with them, how old are they, how often do you see them?

Third: Partially out of curiosity, mostly because of 'personal interest.'

And a personality test I took this week at the head-doc's.

And the results it came up with.

So much for just having bipolarity...

Sounds like a serious god complex.

Personally, I find a better environment helps, whatever that may be for you.
Becoming healthy and fit helps.
Routine helps to be closer to stability.
Regular post analysis helps, watching for what could be triggers. Eg, Heavy metal playing before road rage or uncontrollable angry behaviour after little sleep the night before.
I feel a particular affinity to that song that goes,'nobody knows what it's like to be the bad man behind blue eyes. (I take that to mean sad eyes).
We can tell that you who are unafflicted can't understand it. Particularly by comments like,'suicide is for cowards' or 'they're just attention seeking', which I've heard so much in the past and present. ( not here.)
I find irrationality the hardest battle.
Suppose you had an argument with someone where your view was that 1+1=2 but they calculated the answer to be 3.
It's hard to trust your thoughts again when you realise weeks later that 1+1 does indeed equal 3.
No matter how well or good you feel, it's important, I feel, to remember the thin veil between you and utter hopelessness, despair, confusion, insanity, destruction, whatever.
I consider it to be the real thief in the night.
It's good to be ready and not to forget just because life is looking ok at the moment.
No cures or permanent remissions.
But I think you can widen the gaps.
I'm no expert, it's just my personal opinion.
Getting a diagnosis can seem to others like your just looking for some excuse for being unnormal, which you really could prevent by just being normal, like us.
That's why many of us don't seek help until we burnt every bridge in town... and the town and all it's inhabitants. :-)

Don't you guys have like a safe place for people to ask questions or seek advice where it's against the rules to derail or be an asshole?

I have mood swings which are similar of BPD. But they are caused by cruel world not disorder. So I don't have it.
