No .I don't have it. .Yes I know someone who has it. Or I knew her well for two years. It was a difficult friendship.

She was a vampire.

It got to the point with her ex where he was spoon feeding her literally in bed when she was fully able. He cooked for her.

She would be sexually inappropriate with teen guys. She was older than me. In her late thirties.

She came from a terrible back ground.

I had to tell her I didn't want anymore. She came back from a mutual friend's house i got a call from the friend saying that she did not want her in her house anymore she had been sexually inappropriate with a teen neighbor.

I confronted her ...to give her a chance ..she went into how she had fancied young guys etc ..

I told her i couldn't have anything to do with her.

She left voice messages of screaming on my phone. ..Just screaming.

That is not to say all people with BPD are like this.

It's not simply jumping from one mood to another. Most self injure ...cutting ..etc...she did too.

She was not self diagnosed but diagnosed by three psychiatrists.

It was really weird ..i don't know why but I felt I had to save her. Bought her groceries ...tickets...helped her move ...the mutual friend did too ..we were bringing her coal and fuel...she would do nothing for herself.

My friends husband hated her from the begining. My friend is a cancer too ....and like me is CONSTANTLY trying to save people.

I know 2 people that have it.
What I they like ?
I'm not very close to the first one that i know with it. She's very open about it. Wants to get better.

The second one is pretty cool. I'm very fond of her. She ran most of the clubs that I'm part of, and imo she was a pretty nice person to be around.

She i knew it! That example i gave ..she would always use the BPD to excuse hurting people. I am possibly giving one side of the story though. She had very dark thoughts though. And zero respect for my boundaries.

Was she always like that? Or did she just spiral out of control? Was she not getting therapy?

Yes.

I don't have it, but was interested in someone who did.
What was the person like? And is that what changed your mind?
click to expand

We're still friends. And yes I changed my mind after reading up more on BPD. I have chronic depression so dating someone with BPD can be considered high risk.

Apparently she was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder for many years before the final diagnosis for BPD. We had a lot of fun hanging out together though. Even travelled together with other friends. She was, however, prone to odd moments of dramatics, but I guess regular counselling and medication helped her keep her moods in check most of the time.

I read somewhere that with counselling + medication, a person with BPD can get better as he/she gets older. This seems to be the case for my friend.

If you are looking for signs. Risky sexual behavior. Self harm. Chronic feelings of emptiness. Very clingy. pattern of instability in interpersonal relationships, self-image and emotions.

They experience it in the way they feel.You will see it in the way they live.

Moving a lot. Having deep links to one person ..to the point of smothering.
Btw that friend of mine has your sun and moon 😛

She started exhibiting risky behavior at a young age according to her self but she was diagnosed in her 20's. So yes. ...damaging stuff to herself and others.

She was getting therapy. And on medication.

She was in her early teens. Dropped out of school ...left home all in her early teens.

My mother might have it.
What makes you suspect she has it?

Once she drinks on her free days to escape her depression she becomes a completly different person

with paranoia feelings, she can be driven by anger to a high level too.
Could that not just be a drinking problem?

Not from what i have seen.

I am sorry.

Creative self-expression. She works in the medical industry but designs her own clothes and cosplay costumes during her free time.

Probably explains why you're always so depressed and suicidal.

People with BPD who are not seeking professional help and/or on medication can become very toxic and malignant to loved ones.

You probably need to dig deeper. Seems like your issues are much deeper than you believe.

They lie like crazy about everything
Yes, that is a large part of the illness. Mostly they do not want to appear to have flaws, (as they are afraid to face them) so they will hide them and embellish their lives in the eyes of others.

Yes. Which is why, if you are unaware, it's very easy to get dragged into difficult situations with them.
