Hi. New poster here. 19, diagnosed about a year ago. Been dealing with BPD since about 14. Surprisingly, getting better. Ive been in 2 different DBT groups and have noticed an improvement. I still have those "BPD" days, or hours, or minutes. But they ar getting easier. I still self sabotage, dont put myself into DBT and utilize it a much as i should. But its a fight, a fight im slowly winning.


It scares me, to know im getting better. Its not a place ive ever been, and the unknown is terrifying. My doctor put me on new meds about 7 months ago and they actually worked and helped and i was scared because they worked. so i stopped taking them, or took them less. But the pain in others eyes when i tried to explain, like to my bf for example, helped me get back on them. Still feel scared sometimes, but also hopeful..For the future. 

Anyways, i'd like to tell anyone iffy about it to do DBT. If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity, seize the day. Also, another thing that has helped me shine light into my own self has been the book "sometimes i act crazy."
that book taught me a lot about myself. Check it out. =)
