...See more I don't know what to say. Pray for me if you pray. I am moving next Saturday. We've already started. I'd considered moving to save money... we have way too much house for the two of us... but wasn't sure I could psychologically handle it. Then my landlord said she's selllng the house. It's good because it was no longer a choice I had to make, but it's so sad. I lived in my last house for ten yearS after the divorce, so that was really traumatic moving. Then the people I thought were my family... well, they are but t was totally unhealthy so my bonus daughter and my God daughter had to move out. I thought that I'd found. My family. I was okay /at peace that I wasnr married...and it all blew up anyway, so it brings all that up. An I love this house, this neighborhood, the forest that's my backyard. Seeing deer in the street sometimes. Anyway. I'm just whining. I don't know how to handle this. I want to check into the hospital to avoid it. Going back to sleep for now

...See more Hi, everyone! I have posted about this in response to threads, but I just wanted to ask this question: is it okay ( or is it wrong/not a realistic expectation) for me to expect my psychiatrist to validate my feelings of abandonment & rejection when she had to cxl my appt last Friday? I know she did NOT abandon me or reject me ( @ least in some small part of my brain), she was sick. However, she KNEW what a hard time I was having from my counselor. I should have admitted myself, actually... and was planning to discuss that ? With her @ appt. but she was SICK!!! I mean, what is my problem? I guess it would be nice to think there is someone out there who will like go out of there way to be there for me or something? (My counselor DID call & check on me Friday after I sent her an email) anyway, would it even be RIGHT for her to validate those feelings? Idk but I feel like I need her to say " I can understand why you feel that way" or something. What do you think? im havig. A hard time even calling to make another appt I tried that day, but was emotionally incapable of doing so. ( for the record, they DID call me to tell me, I just didn't get the message)

...See more Just diagnosed BPD last fall. Kind of like, forgot about it... I mean I was in a group doing DBT for a while, but I don't feel like I have a good handle on it. As in, when I'm hating on a person or blocking a friend's number because she's taking too long to respond... I'm not thinking " oh that's BPD thinking/ talking" is anyone else able to do this? Do you find it helpful? My therapist says I " fire" people. And I do, actually. So. Idk. Seems like people just seem to leave anyway, so maybe I'm beating them to the punch? Idk. I'm really struggling right now. Depression, self harm, suicidal thoughts at times ( not now). Anyway...
