Hello all, I apologize for this post or if it's offensive to anyone. It's going to be very emotional for me to write this.

For context - My girlfriend is, indeed in therapy and has been for the past few years. It seems to be helping a little bit.

I'll get straight to the point here.

My girlfriend is, from what I can understand, really struggling. Her BPD is taking it's toll and the past three weeks, it has been a rough patch for her. We both just started school ( we are fairly young, but not too young ) and that has been hard for her, especially with being in a dysfunctional household, past abuse, and trauma.

I'll be honest here, nothing hurts me more then to see her hurting. I can't imagine how it's like and how it must be so exhausting and draining to fight your mind. Based on what extensive research I've done, it's hell, as an understatement. And I wish I could take the pain all away from her so she would be happy and healthy.

She's the most amazing person, loving, caring, and so sweet. She's given me her heart and everything she has for our relationship. I love her so deeply I can barely describe it. It's breaking my heart to see how much pain she goes through, and I feel so awful I'll never understand that. It hurts me more than my own pain does sometimes. All I want is for her to feel loved, happy, and safe with me. 

I promised her that I would love her, even in the darkest times and I will uphold my promise. I want to be the boyfriend she needs right now. Not the one she's had before. I've been doing everything she's told me to do to help, but I want to do even more.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can help her? Any advice is much appreciated.

Thank you for listening to me. x
