Not getting enough sleep activates me big time. Interpersonal, feeling like I’m being neglected activates me.

'if I wasn't intensely engaging with the world it was like I didn't exist'. This sums up so much for me.. thank you✨

THANK YOU, you have helped me with more with this one video, than any other person or podcast has ever helped me. I can now see that I'm not the 'Evil Demon' that I have always seen myself as. You are making a massive difference to my life, thank you for doing what you're doing. XXX

I can really relate to what some of you were sharing about puberty. I did not want to grow up! And once my body started changing, it was very jarring. At the time, I thought I was alone in that experience, because it seemed like most of my peers were excited about growing up. But I think it’s actually fairly common for adolescents to struggle with all those changes, and maybe even to want to remain a child.

It's interesting about the comorbidities with BPD. I think a lot of mental health problems are overlapping. I was diagnosed with ADHD and I think that I might be my mildly autistic. I have problems regulating intense anger... But I don't often suffer from depression or feelings of emptiness or self-harm etc. but I still plan on asking my psychiatrist to assess me for BPD just to check. I just had a really bad trigger and disregulation episode brought on by intents feelings of betrayal and distrust. I do identify with some of the shorts I've seen about regulating yourself by not saying extremely cutting things to someone and rather just having them be dead to you. Anyone that can get you to bring out the so called daggers might not be worth your time.

After therapy and serious work on myself, i would no longer meet the criteria for diagnosis. I am not cured but I don't react the same as I used to and I'm learning to ride the waves better.

Not being attuned to activates me. My parents were so checked out so it makes sense.

I have a question: As a topic for a later date, could the group speak about AI, chat into picture. Aspect of AI, on BPD?

Interesting! 3:23 would y’all say flare up is better for depression as well, or does Major depression co-occurring with BPD have episodes?

@thebpdbunch 4 ай бұрын

Clinically, major depression is considered an episodic disorder (it’s a mood disorder, which are currently all episodic). So, you experience episodes of major depression. Having co-occurring BPD might mean you experience some other BPD symptoms during a depressive episode, but those symptoms are still not considered to be episodic (from a clinical perspective).
