For me, my bpd symptoms can get so overwhelming at times, that if I don’t release them - I would probably get locked up somewhere. I will go from feeling the most intense jealousy, paranoia, and hatred for my SO, to suddenly feeling incredibly relieved once I let it out. Luckily, he sort of knows this - but other people in my life were not as understanding. I find people that don’t have BPD night beat themselves up for a while if they have an outburst, but once mine is out there - I don’t give a shit anymore. I just needed to release those feelings, and I can go back to living a somewhat normal life.
