Emotions and BPD

How do you handle your emotions with BPD? I usually just push things down until I explode and I know that’s unhealthy but it’s a struggle of mine because I know no one will understand my feelings.

I relate to pushing things down until you explode. It’s a constant struggle for me to stand my ground. I constantly wonder whether my feelings or valid or if me expressing them will only result in an argument. People really don’t understand and invalidate our feelings. I try and write them down and do something to get them out like journaling or exercising. Not perfect or always helpful but sometimes helps in the moment
