    borderline personality disorder is Depression with violent episodes


    "People with borderline personality disorder experience such violent and frightening mood swings that they often fear for their sanity. They can be euphoric one moment, despairing and depressed the next. There are an estimated 18 mil sufferers of BPD living in America today - each displaying remarkably similar symptoms:
    a shaky sense of identity
    sudden outburts of anger
    oversensitivity to real or imagined rejection
    brief, turbulent love affairs
    intense feelings of emptiness
    eating disorders, drug abuse, and other self destructive tendencies
    an irrational fear of abandonment and an inability to be alone"

    - "I Hate You - Dont Leave Me / Understanding the Borderline Personality" By Jerold J. Kreisman, MD, and Hal Straus

    (the book I am currently reading)

    It can be confused with a lot of things. Bipolar, psychlothymic disorder. Bad day at the office.

    We're not professionals, but we can certainly commiserate. :)

    I suffer with generalized anxiety disorder and depression as well. I recall a time when I use to not be like this...how I changed, pfft I could not tell you. Too many traumatic events perhaps. We can definitely friend up! =) Welcome to MFP where you always have a friend to talk to.

    I suffer from severe anxiety an panic disorder. PTSS, OCD, Depression and possibly bipolar ( it runs in the family). I don't have insurance to get check.
    I would like be to be friends with anyone who wants to be with me.
  • I am autistic and have ADHD, with a little anxiety thrown in.
    But my two partners....they both have DID and PTSD, one has major depressive disorder as well, the other is bipolar with paranoid mania.

    My girlfriend can't lose weight unless she can convince her other personality not to get up in the night and make food and eat it. Everyone has to be on board, and it's hard when the other personality is about three and all about the instant gratification.
