Hi all,

I'm new to this sub reddit but I don't know where else to go. My girlfriend of 6 years, diagnosed with BPD at 21 years old in 2014, is in her last semester as a programming student in a technical program.

She started her internship on Monday and is feeling a huge amount of self-doubt, uselessness and she is questioning her existence. I have done everything I can to convince her that she's doing fine and trying to make her feel better in every way I can.

It doesn't seem to be working. I don't know what to do. She needs to finish school for our future. I have been supporting her financially for the last 5 years and if this doesn't work out, I don't know what I'll do.

I love her more than anything in the world.does anyone have any advice for me? Anything useful will be greatly appreciated.
