Hi, I'm new to Reddit but I found this group and wanted to post. I struggle living with BPD as do all of you, I have a friend who also lives with it but I often feel guilty pestering her about stuff all the time. I was wondering if any of you have this, I can feel a flare up brewing and I can keep it simmering then I will have a period of hell which can last anything from a day to a few week and then I'll bounce back but within a really short space of time I will feel it start to brew again. Does anyone have any effective coping techniques? All of mine are hideously unhealthy, the only escapism that I have that is healthy is reading and gaming, but my attention span is so short I find it really difficult to allow myself to be absorbed by a book or a game a lot of the time. Thanks :)
