Was diagnosed w/ BPD about a year ago.  

I have a core group of friends I've known for 20 years, but I only recently made the decision to tell them about my diagnosis, and I'm devastated at their responses of:   "snap out of it" , "that's your own fault", "you need to figure out a way to get the fuck over it".  They have said things like "whatever you need", "I'm here whenever", but they don't appreciate the gravity of that commitment.

I was shocked at the lack of care and the defensiveness.  I feel let down, worthless, and like I have nobody to turn to.  

Did anybody else realize that the friends you thought were there to support you really can't fill that void?  I'm desperate here for some insight or input.
