hi i want to be educated on bpd. for ex when did u know u had bpd (symptom wise not being explicitly diagnosed)? what made sense once you were diagnosed? what things do u go thru that are starkly different from normal insecurity in relationships and mood swings? i align w many bpd symptoms and want to educate myself before i go to a professional. i have abandonment issues and an anxious attachment style. a bunch of other things too (probably too much to go into). im not asking for a diagnosis i just want u guys to know that thats the reason why im asking these questions....
