I've been diagnosed with BPD for about 2 years now, still getting to grips with all aspects of it and trying to understand myself.

I'm going through some unrelated health issues and still processing my anger and hurt from a break up from a toxic on again off again ex/fp (I left him tho so yay go me!). I'm horrifically lonely and it's suffocating but everyone makes me angry, like so unreasonably angry. I can't talk to anyone for longer than five minutes before I just want to tell them to fuck off and leave me alone.

does anyone have this same issue occasionally? any advice on how to combat this? I'm currently avoiding everyone in case I say the wrong thing and upset my friends. I take lamotrigine and venlafaxine (I don't know the brand names) but the lamotrigine doesn't seem to be working since I started the venlafaxine a few months ago... maybe this is related?

also hi I'm new here &amp; to reddit in general :)
