Since, correct me if I’m wrong, one of the tasks bpd people struggle with is to recognise emotions. I thought it would be a good exercise to express here, when you feel like doing it, what or how you are feeling in a point in time.
I’m gonna copy here a link to a list of adjectives referring to emotions and feelings that I found on an author about Childhood Emotional Neglect’s webpage. The dr. and writer Jonice Webb’s page’s link. Running On Empty By Dr. Jonice Webb | Dr. Jonice Webb The link to adjectives. https://www.drjonicewebb.com/wp-cont...g-On-Empty.pdf __________________ Social Anxiety and Depression. Cluster C traits.

The only constant feeling I have is anxiety. Everything else goes from being extremely depressed and hating myself to a volcanic rage and I go through those within a minute. Its a cycle that never ends. If I do feel happiness it doesn't last more than a couple minutes then depression kicks in and tells me I'm not allowed to feel happiness

I don't know that BPDs have trouble recognizing emotions. I think we struggle more with regulating our emotions, which is why the disorder has been re-named Emotional Dysregulation Disorder (or something like that). I have no problem recognizing my emotions...

I based my hypothesis on what I read from scientists and doctors. And applying my own experience with the topic, this latter, naturally, the less relevant for being only a personal experience. From what I know bpd people or people within the spectrum are not the only one who have trouble to identify emotions and surely, not all bpd.ers have this problem. I found this link in case it can clarify what I meant. Why People With BPD Have Trouble Identifying Emotions I also can put an example. Sometimes I feel a clear emotion, range, what I struggle with is to identify the real feelings behind that emotion. If I reflex about it I could find answers, for instance, behind this range, I could be feeling « vulnerable, scared... __________________ Social Anxiety and Depression. Cluster C traits.
