the real emotions of BPD

I find the daily onslaught of emotions really hard to deal with, I can wake up in a good mood and within an hour i'm wanting to crawl back into bed because the emotions i feel are just too much. I suffer from really bad anxiety and can find the emotions make my anxiety ten times worse. does anyone else find their emotions too much to deal with?

I do. The emotional rollercoaster is a very challenging and though experience for me. Exausting both mentally and physically... I am always shocked when I realise that I went from 0 to 100 in a matter of... I don't know, an hour perhaps. Even less. Sometimes it is a matter of minutes, if not seconds.

Therapy is helping though. I have learnt at least to recognise my emotions and feelings. I can name them. Before, it was just an unspecified emotional mess. And I am getting better at accepting them and sitting with them.

ps. Your post is quite an old one, I am sorry it remained with no answer for such a long time... I wonder how you are doing now? I hope you are better.
