My partner has physical and mental health illnesses and I have ignored a lot because of that a good example would be something like..... I put a dirty cup in the sink instead of by the sink he hits the roof is angry as hell will start shouting at me telling me all the things that I do wrong and have ever done wrong in his opinion. He'll often start calling me names and insulting me and twists things to make me feel that he is my victim. Things can continue like this for several hours and at times I have literally been on the floor crying my eyes out with him stood over me continuing his angry ranting. He'll also wake me up to be able to shout at me, tells me to get out of his site or his house etc but has this way of twisting things so I have to apologize to him.
His latest is telling me I am controlling, have taken away his life skills and that I plot behind his back with my mother. But I am beginning to see that I don't deserve to be treated this way __________________ |

Have You studied BPD? What are the symptoms? My SO is uNPD and it helps me to study NPD symptoms and when he starts to rant then I go through the symptoms list and Say to Myself things like "He is raging to get control." "He is triangulating me with My mother" [/COLOR] It sounds like You are starting to get out of the fog. That is a big improvement! Give Yourself some credit! My NPD USED TO keep me awake during the night ranting...That is considered TORTURE You do know that right? You need to find someplace safe to go when that happens. Is there a door that You can lock to keep the BPD out? You might just tell the BPD that it is torture to do that and put a boundary down for that behavior. I don't know a lot about BPD but I have read that IF YOU try and soothe them it helps. Have You tried that? With NPDs they like to give pain. I THINK with BPD they feel like they are being discarded and go off on that. So, IF YOU FEEL LIKE THAT...You could tell them How Much You love them and How You want to be with them. |

That is verbal abuse, The Verbally Abusive Relationship by Patricia Evans saved my life. No one deserves abuse.
When is starts the abuse, walk away, leave the room, if you have to, go outside. Verbal abuse is like having rocks thrown at you, and you would never stand there and let someone do that to you. Do not respond; they/he doesnt' care what you think or feel. |

I've never been able to open up !
There has only been perhaps 2 maybe 3 at most that can see through the painted on smile but even with them I just couldn't, can't open up fully. Apparently even as a very young child I was the same, my mother told me that I had a rag doll that was eventually named ' Agro Doll ' as even before I could speak I used to punch, kick and jump up and down on it until I was exhausted __________________ |

I have and do try to open up here but despite fooling everyone that has ever met me into believing that I am a confident, outgoing, this is me like it or take a hike person. I over analysis everything and stuggle with self loathing. Probably why I am in the situation I am. On a brighter note today when my partner was shouting down at me, telling me how I think I am perfect that I don't listen because I think I am too cleaver and all that I actually told him that if I listened to every thing that he says to me I'd have killed myself a long time ago. That actually shut him up __________________ |

Well done for standing up for yourself I have one abusive ex with BPD too (though not all people with BPD are abusive, I just had a bad luck), I stood up for myself and somehow it softened him but sadly in my case it didn’t last. I ended up leaving him and blocking him from my life as the abuse became unbearable.

I think your partner is controlling,is a perfectionist and is projecting his own faults onto you,also,what we despise in ourselves we will not tolerate in others,know that to treat you this way means he is full of self hatred.Don't let him belittle and abuse you this way!BDP partner,you can walk away,but obviously you know and presumably knew when you got with him that he has mental and physically illnesses,that does not mean however that he can treat you like his punch bag and vent his frustration out on you.

Get away from this man ASAP. You definitely don't deserve this. Yes, that is abuse -- verbal and emotional. Get out now, please, and save your mental health.

It’s not ok for him to vent his frustration and anger on you like this. I hope you can get away. Some NPD’s have very limited insight into themselves sadly. And we can’t help them to change. . They will simply keep on being abusive.
