Life with BPD/Depression?!


Question:

Life with BPD/Depression?

I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder last year in December during an admission in a Psychiatric ward, I was there for 2 weeks, they also diagnosed with something else called Adjustment Disorder. My life has been a rollercoaster since the age of about 14 (I'm 20). I can be high as a kite & caring/loving etc one minute, aggressive/narcicisstic/contro... the next, deeply depressed/suicidal the next. I have trust issues with men especially, (was sexually abused as a child & then as a teenager), feel the need to control all my surroundings and do not know how to deal with loss. I have an addiction to marijuana & I have also started drinking when I am depressed & have nothing 2 smoke. I haven't self-harmed for a long time (3months-ish), but have suicidal thoughts frequently. Suicide is always in the back of my head, even when things are going ok. I have so many secrets I am hiding that hurt, I think I have a sexual addiction,I know that I lie often & I hate it

I don't understand why I lie about some of the things I do, some r just stupid things, so why lie? When the words come out I'm thinking: "Thats's bullshit, why did I say that?" I don't lie all the time but often enough to make me feel like **** knowing that I'm being dishonest. I'm almost always in some sort of relationship or dating someone, I feel so hopeless & empty when I am not. I'm not a bad person & I know that I have potential 2 succeed in life, I know I want 2 get better but maybe I don't want it enough? Some of the things that have happened over the years 2 me..I can't describe them here. I have clear dreams of murdering various people in my life or that used 2 be. I visualise hurting them badly sometimes while in the same room. I have a fixation with death & dying, various diseases, a fascination with blood & the list goes on. On top of all this I also believe in God and know that my life is going nowhere good at this stage. I do not know what to do. I am on medication.
