DAE have a hard time trusting themselves? I’ve done a lot of work on learning more about BPD which I think has been helpful but also a bit harmful. I’ve only been diagnosed for about a year- but the hardest thing for me is trusting my emotions as they happen. I feel like BPD complicates real, authentic emotions- and sometimes I just tell myself that those emotions happened because of BPD and not because they are rational emotions to have. I hope this makes sense. 

For anyone who is a veteran of BPD: do you feel this way? How have you learned to cope with it?
