With the amount of mental illness talk here i figure some of you must have borderline personality disorder. I'm becoming more and more concerned that i have it myself and i wanted to know how you guys felt and how you behaved before you got diagnosed.
I was diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety both general and social myself,even aspergers, but none of the pills did anything except make me sleepy and no matter how hard i try the behavioral therapy goes out the window when i start getting the negative feelings welling up.
My concern is based on the fact that i have mood swings every day to a strong degree and lately it's been getting even worse. I've been doing impulsive shit like abusing leftover meds and binge eating and drinking with no regard for myself and being fine with it one day and being suicidal over it the next. Most people don't notice my lack of emotional control because i don't say much but when i talk with people online these problems come out to an extreme degree. I pick fights with close friends over the most minor shit and feel like i have no control
Even if BPD isn't the problem and i'm barking up the wrong tree like every other time that i feel like something else is wrong with me i just want to find a way to feel better, any way. the closest i've come to feeling ok in years was a couple weeks ago when i threw back some benzos
I want help more than anything right now but by tomorrow morning i could decide that i'm fine. I know i'm rambling and this is getting off topic but i have literally nowhere else to turn at this point without being seen as too fucked up to deal with
Since you might have missed it or forgotten by now i'd like to here your experiences with BPD

I know exactly what you mean.
If you can avoid a good psych maybe give it a shot, but I gotta say, you seem like you're looking for a magical pill that doesn't exist.
Print the OP out and show it to your psych, not even kidding it's probably your best bet.
Desudesu sounds like bipolar and/or OCD and/or BPD

People with BPD are the scum of the earth and should really, unironically, kill themselves. They're not even human.

i didn't fucking ask for this, it's not something i did to myself it just happened.you say this like i don't think about killing myself every day but the truth is as fucked as my life is i'd rather be alive than dead because at least i can predict the ways life will be shit

If I were you, I'd go to a psychiatrist and get evaluated.
If they do think you have BPD, the most effective known treatment is a type of cognitive therapy called DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy). It's actually quite effective if you commit to it for the full period (should be ~1 year).
For more immediate anxiety and depression, they might suggest antidepressants (SSRIs) and/or anti-anxiety meds (benzos). I had horrible luck with SSRIs but benzos really do work like a dream. It's different for everybody though.
Good luck dude.

Same. vivid horrible nightmares + foggy mind on SSRIs.
Doc wont prescribe me benzos anymore tho. One could get easily dependent on those.

>>36554190
Nah, I've got avoidant personality disorder, not borderline. I envy borderlines because they're total normies.
>>
>>36555655
I'm just gonna go ahead and say, same.

>constant mood swings
>extreme anger over trivial matters
>grovelling and performing like a trained monkey over imagined abandonment
