Who else here has BPD? Anonymous 129339
F20 and was diagnosed with BPD recently, even though I knew I had it for a couple of years.
I have gotten so much better with my symptoms but currently I'm dating a guy that I feel cares more about being right that my feelings whenever he does something that affects me. I don't feel like he also ever takes into consideration the fact that I have BPD and this is something he knew from the start.
I'm tired of having BPD and such overwhelming emotions to the point I can't function properly

I also have BPD, to was sort of annoying navigating symptoms in high school when everything is summed up to hormones and growing, especially when you’re a girl, even when it was obvious that my reactions to things simply was not on par to my fellow students regardless. Not to get too triggering here, but I’ve been on the brink of suicide over the smallest of shit, and almost lost friends over a candy cane. So I get it, it’s exhausting, but the goal is to maintain the self, not to save others from what’s inside, but to save nurture yourself. If he can’t understand, don’t keep him, if he can grow over time and try (bc he is a human being and sometimes we have a hard time understanding) then he’s worth it.
Just make sure that you are okay with yourself regardless, take time for yourself and for your thoughts and give space to fuck up and be a little irrational. Sometimes it annoys me how ppl will give space for things like Tourette’s and autism, but dare you have BPD and you’re a menace.
Hope you’ll start feeling yourself, OP!
