    So glad you're being honest about the manipulation part. I don't think it's doing any good to anybody that many are denying that part of the disorder. I speak as someone who hasn't been diagnosed yet, but regonize that I have strong traits of BPD.

    My mom had bpd but never got help for it. Seeing people like Genesis who are working hard to deal with the condition is truly enlightening. It shows that things can be better, and in so doing, it gives a clearer picture of what bpd is. So it indirectly helps me understand my own life a bit more by understanding my mom a bit more. I'm very grateful!

    I have BPD. It’s tough. The psychological pain can be absolutely excruciating. Suicidal ideation is common, mine started in childhood. Substance abuse and unhealthy romantic relationships almost killed me. I’m a man and was diagnosed very late. I actually had to present the idea that I had BPD to a clinician. I have a very extensive trauma history. In trauma therapy now. EMDR just leaves you fatigued and banged up for days. DBT seems to be helping as well. The healing journey is a long and arduous road…..with no guarantee I will completely heal. I have a hungry heart on steroids but love just usually makes me sick. The thing I crave the most could kill me. Truly…..I have a bone to pick with God. Deep feelings and masculinity equals Zebra with red stripes. Beyond isolating.

    I've been relentlessly studying bpd for a couple of weeks. I do not self harm or attempt "ending things." But have had "ideation" for my whole life, practically, along with *DARK* depression, all internalized, and I don't let the outside world see it. I have alcoholism in my childhood and was raised in a doomsday cult. I've been drawn to abusers and stayed single for over a decade bc I was so distanced from wanting to love anyone. Until last year when I found the love of my life. My best friend, soul mate, and the one who finally figured out how I think, and began pointing things out to me that no one else ever cared to look at. Holy #@$% it took over a year for my to stop blaming him, and start looking at what I was doing, WHY I was blaming him, and how much pain I was causing him.
    I'm ruining my relationship with him, and I'm just realizing it's "borderline patterns." Major emotional disregulation, self hatred, terrified of losing him, pushing him away, asking for his forgiveness, being so remorseful, repeat, etc. I'm nearly 50 years old and 4 therapists throughout my life, (now on the 5th) and it was never even something I considered. I was diagnosed with anxiety, depression, ptsd, complex ptsd, ocd, and a sleep disorder. I think the misdiagnoses came from the *times I entered therapy* and symptoms I was showing at the time which may not have given me the opportunity to fully express the tendencies that are directly linked to BPD tendencies.
    With tremendous research, I already feel myself putting the pieces together of understanding the self talk, looking deeply into connections to my past, and why I'm responding the way I do. I feel hope. I've not said the word "BPD" to my boyfriend, because I don't want him looking it up and freak out, but just told him things I'm picking up on in my behavior, and he knows I've just started therapy. He's incredibly loving, forgiving and supportive and I think he is hopeful. I feel fortunate that he still loves me because he should've told me a long time ago to %$#@ off. Although, he has also told me no one has ever shown love to him the way I do, and I love him for all the right reasons so I think he wants to hold on to that part of me. He says, "it's the other side of you that %$&@s us up" and he also knows that some of his behaviors provoke mine. So, I at least feel there's hope for "faster path to success" the more I dedicate to learning.
    Just a side note to anyone at the beginning stages of looking into this, my therapist told me you can have "bpd tendencies" but *not actually have bpd* so use caution in self diagnosing. I feel for anyone who goes through what I go through or worse. I'm thankful I never self harmed or ended up in the hospital. But I feel deep empathy for anyone else who has.

My faith in religion is also shaken and I don’t know where to go with it. Listening to her story gave me some hope that maybe I can get better.

    The earlier experiences (being bullied at school, being a tomboy, preferring a book to socialising, having special interests and quickly finding friends in association with them) do sound like autism, with pathological demand avoidance (immediately doing what mum told not to do). I hear autism especially in girls is frequently misdiagnosed as BPD.

    • @urieldaboamorte
      @urieldaboamorte Год назад +7

      Disclaimer: I'm not talking about Genesis' diagnosis, she knows her own reality and we don't. This comment is only meant for the ones reading it to know of a situation that occurs far too often.
      BPD really is a common misdiagnosis for ASD. You'll see a lot of people on r/aspiegirls and r/AutismInWomen saying that they were previously diagnosed with BPD, for example, but there's been research on it too. Most professionals are trained to identify the stereotypical raging borderline and non-speaking autist (which is why most people are surprised when they learn that the two conditions can be quite difficult to tell apart for a lot of presentations). I can say from experience that misdiagnosis of adults is rampant; a lot of autistic folks will receive a diagnosis of a personality disorder for years or decades before (and if) ASD is finally recognized by a specialist. And because CBT and its variations are focused on the current symptoms, whatever happened to the person during their neurodevelopment is ignored - crucial data (albeit maybe hard to retrieve for adults) that is essential to distinguish between a PD and a NDD. So the person becomes a "difficult patient" - medication and therapy have been going on and on but progress is minute, and no one knows why.

    • @MrTittybutt
      @MrTittybutt Год назад

      I'll add to what the person below you wrote. Pathological demand avoidance is word salad consultant speak. First pathologixzing it is victimizing and second were a dopamine deprived/addicted society. Give kids a super flavor bomb doriti and then have them eat a plain potato. Why would akid want to clean their room when theyre getting high on fortnite? Why would they want to go to target to work, when they could lay around. Those are nor,al emotions to having to do horrible things. All of these pathologies associated with BPD, ADHD, and even some to ASD are normal human emotions and these parameters for whats normal are set by people who lived in a different time and everything was easier. It was Bipolar when i was young. It was a money making drug pushing crock then. This is criminal and immoral. Were pushing kids toward self harm and suicide by telling them they're lazy and broken when its society.
      Imagine telling someone from the 80s that both parties are the same, the dems pretend to be the party of the people, that you cant get a mortgage whetehr you could afford a house, that you have no heathcare, you cant afford college, afford kids, you can work for 1 of 6 horrible corporations, the whole healthcare insurance industry, railroads, everything is owned by a a few people. Theyd say. How does that work? Arent monopolies illegal? I could go on froever and ever. Im not a kid anymore, im the oldest Gen x. i lived at the edge of 2 difefrent worlds and it was hard. Were victimizing our kids, so much narcisisistic abuse by blaming the lack of ambition, joy, on them when there is nothing. if you look at the actual parameters of these "disorders". its all nromal human emoptions written by extremely out of touch or dishonest people. Its misery loves comany.
      I get that a diagnosis makes things makes sense. It gives a pass to some things but, those passes should be given for situation and the love and empathy for our closest people but, weve all learned narcisisism. Thats the real pathology and Dunning Kruger narcisisism, hollow proped superficial identities are wahst more important than how people really feel. The world ends with narcissism. I used to watch these and got a lot from Yeomans - he seems to be one of the only ones whos not a robot and maybe has honest intentions. I dont even think people know their intentions as self reflection is almost extinct.
      We are generations of invalidated trauma, disenfranchised pain/grief, and money conflicted garbage science. Were doomed without empathy and that is nt being taught or fostered , the harder the world gets we just up the bootstrap analogies and the consultant class keeps selling pretend solutions for problems theyve created. That last one sounds like pharma and every other industry.

    For me, my life has turned out to be pure solitude. I am an alcoholic smoker to deal with it. I feel much better when I quit for a few days, but after those few days my reality surfaces again and I realize the true severe extent of my social standing. Even one cup of coffee is enough to send me into a bad depression by the time it wears off. Humans are just drug addicts. Everybody. I don't really view myself as any different from anybody else. I was just abrasively shown the truth at a young age. I'm not interested in sitting around drinking coffee or tea and talking about "recovery". Everything is bullshit and hopeless when there's mood altering substances involved (poisons that humans willingly consume). My only hope is to become so organic that animals, nature and work make me whole on a daily basis. Even gluten causes clinical depression. Why? Because it's a drug. It's not even a God damn food. But people utilize it to satisfy our never ending desire for "more". Just like porn. Nobody knows the extent except for me, but I have the key. There are 3 options: drug addiction/alcohol, suicide or no physiologically altering substances.
