Backstory: I don’t know if I have BPD, my husband and I both suspect I do. I am currently in therapy to get help and gain more of an understanding of why I am the way that I am.

Anyways, does anyone else absolutely lose it when their plans unexpectedly change? 

I like to have a predetermined schedule of what I’m doing on any given day especially if it involves being social. I don’t like social interaction, I’m pretty introverted and I am very OCD about timing. And so today I had plans to do thing A at 11 and thing B at 3 so I could be happily home and snuggled up on the couch by 7 at the latest.

Well it turns out 15 minutes before 11 the people involved in thing A decided to switch the time to 1. I went crazy. I lost it. I completely shut down my entire day because of that one little hiccup. I had an emotional breakdown. The change in plans and schedule upset me to the point of emotional exhaustion. Is this common with anyone who does have BPD? Does anyone else get irritated to where they just shut down when their schedule changes unexpectedly?

I apologize if this type of post isn’t allowed here. I’ve been lurking on this sub a while now and everyone seems rather encouraging and it feels like a great support system, so I hope it’s ok.
