So, I (M 27) was diagnosed with BPD about two weeks ago and since then I've been on a bit of journey to validation. It's honestly been SO exciting and such a liberating time for me finally having some explanation for the way I've felt/been as long as I can remember. I know I have a LOT to learn but at least this is a start.

Social experiences for me have always been incredibly awkward and not knowing why I feel so out of place and undeserving of life has always disturbed me. I want to make the effort to improve my quality of life and this thread seems like such a wonderful place to continue this.

Anyone with any recommendations on BPD related media I should consume, please hit me up. For anyone else out there struggling, know I feel you and that you should feel validated. 

Much love x
