I'm New and Confused

Hello. I just joined this community, but I only think I have BPD. I haven't been diagnosed, but I have done research myself and drawn parallels between my actions and the symptoms. I haven't self-diagnosed, because I know how dangerous that is. I've been trying to navigate this world, but it isn't easy. When people don't know about you, they always think you're crazy and emotional. At least, that's what I think others think of me. How do I live in this world and accept myself when I know others won't?

@cocoafp191 You are accepted here and you can freely share your thoughts and feelings. Try to find some coping skills that would help you, but if nothing works definitely go and seek professional help

I am trying to find coping skills to replace the one I used to have. The healing process has been tough, but I'm getting through it.

That is a very challenging question and one I look for too myself. I know how hard it can be and I really appreciate your bravery in coming here and sharing your thoughts. It can be scary to open up like that. I can help you along the journey and so can this community. You are not alone.
