Borerline Personality Disorder and Cancer (Page 3)

You just described the male version of my ex to a near T.

The behavior is enough to make you want to scream, correct?

I never have understood the almost compulsive need of theirs to save their most poisonous arrows for when people like you and I are grieving over something outside the relationship, as was the case with the death of my Grandpa and with your parents going to the rehab center.

Well, it made me confused and sad and.... well, insecure. My intuition told me something was up with him, that he had issues and it just wasn't right. But, the way he would talk.... the way he could sum up his dissapointments with me in one sentence had me questioning, I started to think I was the problem. So, I took the blame...glady, because honestly I didn't want to believe that this was who he truly was. The great thing about taking responsibility for something you've done is that YOU can actually CHANGE it, make it better. But it's become painfully obvious to me over the past year that it wasn't me because no matter how much I tried to make it right, I simply couldn't.

Thank you for posting that article, Scuba (I sooooo badly loved calling you that!) 😉

Well, I am sorry you went through that, but at the same time, I am glad that you are over it and capable of discussing it so that others can learn from your experiences in life.

People sometimes forget that it is the experiences of other human beings that often help us learn.

Yes, this is true.

Yes, this is true.

God knows I have learned some lessons the hard way.

It's almost human nature to do so, in many cases, IMHO.

yeah, I feel like I made a lot of the same mistakes I watched my friends go through, and even though I was thoroughly warned of the consequences I never quite got it until I went through it myself. I think it's more about conditioning than just simply knowing better.

Too cute, best viewed full screen.

hey red! you stole my video - hehehheh. i just came here to post this.

I love this cartoon as well, since it is sooooooooooooo TRUE!

The scene where the protagonist envisions the little red ball as some kind of ghost-monster waiting to bite him? And then he ties up the little red ball with a chain and padlock?

Yes, that kind of absurd paranoia is unfortunately ever present in BPD.

It's so real!

It made me think of this scene:

"Carol the Waitress.... Simon the fag...."

Hahahahaha!!!

"Fucking H.M.O. bastard pieces of shit!"

"It's okay. Actually, I think that's their technical name."

Ok class dismissed

My first girlfriend was crazy and I could never figure out what it was. It wasnt clinginess or the craziness that is women sometimes she a year after we broke up was diagnosed with it after she finally saw a therapist. When I read all the symptoms and signs it made my year of hell make much more sense. She was a July Leo, I dont remember what decan.

First decan.

Omg the more I read this thread and the characteristics the more I am pretty sure my 2nd girlfriend had it too. She used to cut and told me one time in her darkest mood she would not recover and cut herself if I broke up with her. She was I believe February 14? An Aquarius. Her mother had quite a few mental problems and her father pretty much emotionally blackmailed her into breaking up with me the first time. I realized she got a lot of her crazy from her parents. Wtf is with me and attracting BPD women I cannot figure it out!
