BPD girllfriend left me, im confined together with my army mates. unlucky week so far.

But it made me realized that i'm growing stronger and more resilient emotionally when these setbacks hit me.

Although I reflected i could have done better to salvage this shortlived r/s, I decided to let her go

I'm sorry about that. You did what you could and there's nothing wrong with that. You should be proud that your growing stronger.

The day was pretty good. Was able to get a workout in. Not the way I wanted but better nonetheless.

I'm struggling to let go of what my idea of a perfect parent is. Various therapists have said to me its good for my daughter to see that I have feelings but as I never saw that my mother had feelings its hard for me to believe that.

It is important for kids to see your feelings so that they then know it is okay for them to have feelings/emotions. Being a mom is hard and letting go of that perfect parent image is so hard, I still fight with it.

Today was a good day. Kept everything calm, which is what I needed.

I'm letting my daughter see my anger today: I'm listening to my Ludacris station. Usually I get on her case for listening to hip hop. Its actually good for our relationship because she can rap along in the background as she knows words to some of the songs and I know words to other of the songs and sometimes we both know the song.

My mother and I never got down together.

Having intermittent bad moods today. Under a lot of pressure. Have a deposition on Monday. Getting heat from my ex. A friend is trying to take it to another level and I'm not interested. Have to take my teen to the pediatric psychiatrist on Tuesday and last time she ran away to avoid the appointment so now I have to be extremely clever. Do I tell her the night before? The morning before? Sleep in front of the door? (I had to do that one time to prevent her from going to an event she did not have permission to go to without an adult). Yeah, I'm stressed.

Today was't the greatest. Woke up depressed and was like that the whole day. Argued with my mom but eventually made up with her. Not one of my best days. Just want to go to bed and call it a day..

I had another calm day. It looks like it'll be more of the same. I can get used to this.

I deleted my other post. I am not calm today. My daughter got high today. I have a deposition tomorrow . My daughter has a pediatric psychiatrist appointment Tuesday. I'm making sure I'm eating very nutritious food today, taking my supplements, did yoga, going for a walk.

Woke up to find my boyfriend (who is away on holiday with his friends) had only just gotten back to his hotel (it was morning, around 6/7am). He wanted to go straight to bed, but I wanted to talk. This didn't end well, thought it was my fault. In the end he went to bed and I had a bit of an episode by myself.
