Hi Coop
BPD is more common than you may realise. It is a normal personality trait used by the pharmacutical companies and psychiatrists who gave it that name in order to make money.
I guess you must change from being ok one minute to being a little over excessive the next, dependent on another who may give you attention and low the next. You may even find you will feel so crappy when rejected by the opposite sex and feel the need to ask why they are rejecting you and when they ignore you, you feel you need to seek answers too and dont get them and may even be ignored by the person you like or have formed a relationship with. You may even ask yourself why are they doing this when you care for them and assumed they cared for you too. Its a really shitty feeling.
You will probably sit there upset, cry, feel lonely, sad, isolated and even so low you wonder why you exist because you may feel no one gives a **** and how the hell can you establish anything with anyone when they do this to you, betray you, betray your feelings and you may even keep running to them only to be greeted by thier silence or with no answers to all those questions you may seek answers too
I suffer from it too but so do millions of others. Its called being a human being.
No personality is the same and God forbid if we were all the same as it would be the most boring thing in the world and oh so predictable
But you know something coop, your normal. Dont let anyone tell you any different and it really isnt your loss because your worth more than your weight in gold but the only person who cant see this is you
