Question: If any of you are in college, have you found it easier or harder for your mental health? 


I just graduated high school and i’m starting college in two months. I’m very nervous about it because I had a hard time in high school keeping/making friends and even just going to school. I think my biggest fear is being around others 24/7 (i’m going to be living in a dorm) and making healthy and stable relationships. I like being by myself when it comes to my mood swings and episodes, but i really want to put myself out there and build a solid group of friends. I’ve spoken to some of the people that are going to be attending my college and most of them are very friendly and understanding but I’m scared I won’t be able to control my “toxic” traits... for example getting attached to my roommate and getting jealous/exploding whenever she has her friends over is a VERY big fear for me. 

So yeah, can someone tell me about their college experience and how your bpd has been throughout?
