Well I’m happy and proud you found a way to save your sanity and your diploma at the same time.

I know how you feel, when my first love left me, I felt I lost my identity. In a way I did. But I feel as if some people with BPD have a bad habit of becoming chameleon dolls…meaning we hide ourselves from ourselves and try to be everything that the person we love would want, leaving us empty in the end.

I’m happy I could be of some help. Remember though, it takes a lot of courage in someone to listen to another person’s word of advice or experience and follow through with it. So take every experience in stride and don’t forget to pat yourself on the back for your personal accomplishments. It’s an awe-inspiring thing to see someone change their life when they’ve hit a hard place. Good luck to you in the future.

I think I might have it because I feel as if when I get happy, I get so incredibly happy, and when I get sad, I get so extremely upset it scares my surroundings. Or well, that’s what my ex-fiance told me and I’m starting to believe it more and more. In one way I think he changed so much about me I’m no longer myself, and I’ve decided to see a therapist as soon as possible. I’ve been experiencing more and more panic attacks lately and it is really frightening. I’m sure you know what I mean. What I don’t know is if this is because of something that’s always been part of me or if he damaged so much about me that I was starting to lose my mind.

A lot of things have happened since I wrote you, and I decided to go home because of some of it. This is probably the best decision I’ve taken in my life, and fortunately some of my professors are going to help me finish up my last two weeks online. I feel so relieved. It’s an amazing feeling. I’m finally home!

I know you don’t know me very well at all, but I want you to know that you have had a huge impact on me and your comments have been such an incredible help through my pain. Thank you.

Hi.. I wanted to thank you for taking your time and responding to my post, it really feels like you understand my thoughts so well right now… I actually wanted to ask you something too. I got curious about you and read a few of your replies from earlier, and in one of them you say that you have Borderline Personality Disorder.. Thing is, I think I might have that too. It’d be nice to talk to you about it… if you want to, that is.
