Hi,
I thought I'd start a thread on this as it's something that has come up recently for me, that I might be suffering from and there's very little about it on the forum elsewhere. Apparantly Anxiety/Panic Disorders, Depression, etc go hand in hand with this, so I guess there must be some others out there that have this too?
I had a PM from another person regarding my thread about the therapy I'm starting soon DBT (Dialectic Behavioral Therapy) which is used primarily to treat this. Not many people seem to know much about it, so I've been Googling... always a bad idea . It's quite a stigmatised, misunderstood and complicated condition so a bit scary.
I'm finding it a bit hard to accept that I might have this, but some of the symptoms I've read about seem to match up with me. At first my thoughts were "Nah, that can't be right" but the more I read about it, the more I think I could be. This is the MIND leaflet on it:
Understanding borderline personality disorder
I wonder if there are any other people that suffer from this that can shed any light on this condition?
Jim
