Hi! I'm Kristin, and this is the first time I've ever tried any groups like this. I just am at the point where I know I need extra help dealing with BPD, but don't even know where to start. I'm a sophomore in college and that's hard enough by itself, adding BPD to the mix makes it even more challenging. I don't know many people who have it, I had never even heard of it until a few years ago. I thought everyone was like this, I never knew all these parts of me were actually a personality disorder. It still upsets me that so much of me is defined by BPD.
Anyways, I just wanted to make my first post. I'm hoping to feel less alone in this, and hopefully get advice on coping. I'm also in a relationship, and I would really really like it to work out, so any advice with that is greatly appreciated as well.
Hello to all!
