Hey everyone, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone on this subreddit that's brave enough to share their stories. I was recently diagnosed with BPD and never knew there were so many other people out there that feel and react to situations the exact same way that I do. I was starting to think there was no hope for me because no one would understand or relate to my intense reactions to small mishaps or the reasons behind my quick mood switches. I really appreciate how vulnerable everyone is on here- it's really helped me over the past few days not feel like such an oddball. I know it's hard to open up but just know you're helping people when you do. Thanks :)
