I’m just throwing this question out there, and maybe it’ll make sense, maybe it will not. I’m a little drunk, so who knows. 

I feel like BPD symptoms and psychological discrimination destroyed my twenties. Although I went to college, the majority of the friendships I made there are destroyed as people are too weirded out by my symptoms and have blocked me, unfriended me, gone away. I was fired from my first post-college job due to BPD symptoms and spent 6 years working in customer service jobs that I hated before finally getting an office job that I felt like I could enjoy and feel like I hadn’t wasted my tuition money. I’ve been victim of horrible involuntary hospitalizations that have destroyed my credit and emotionally hobbled me. I just turned 30 and I’m still suffering, but hopeful that my 30s would be a chance to rebuild and create a life worth living.

If you’re in your 30s, what does/did life with BPD look like for you?
