Do you have BPD?

[Cotteneyedjoe]

About to get diagnosed with BPD. In one way I’m sad because I feel like I will never be able to just live a normal, happy life. In another way I’m relieved because I know it’s my normal to feel the way I do.

there’s days like yesterday I was fine. Today I feel in the depths of depression. I’m sitting in my car and just feel like driving forever. Yesterday I was so happy. Wtf.

Have you ever been assessed for ASD/ADHD? BPD is often misdiagnosed in neurodivergent women.

No but I go for my assessment soon (bpd is based on preliminary assessment) so I will ask the psychiatrist. Thank you.

I was diagnosed with BPD after one phone call with a psychiatrist during lockdown but have since been diagnosed with ADHD so I’m not sure whether I was initially misdiagnosed. I do relate to/have experienced many of the characteristics though. I did several years of psychodynamic therapy and found it really transformative, I’d say I no longer fit the profile. It can be overcome

I was diagnosed with Eubpd last year and I know exactly about the swings in moods. I was half alright yesterday today I'm in the pits of depression and want to run away. I suffer with depression, anxiety and ptsd too and I'm so exhausted from it all 🥹

I was diagnosed with BPD at 21. I very much believed it until a few months ago when I realised that I'm autistic. Life makes more sense now. I'm 39
