Anytime. Sorry I didn't write more but sometimes I feel quite shy on here
You have been through a lot and it sounds like you're trying your best. You have and are in therapy and you are reaching out here for support. It also sounds like you are self aware of your moods and how they affect those around you. Have you found the BPD or PTSD forums yet? Sometimes it really helps to talk with those going through similar things __________________ I think I need help 'cause I'm drowning in myself.

Thank you again.... I understand being shy. I use to not talk about my emotional disabilities to anyone out of shame and fear of judgment. But I don't want to live like that any more.
The problem for me is I am aware I have mood swings but once I get stuck in them its hard for me to get out. I can feel the spiral coming but I feel by time I feel that I am out of control already with my thoughts and what is truly reality. I have been in therapy for 7 yrs. Now what I am doing is seeking out DBT-CBT Treatments with a Psychologist. I have not found a BPD or PTSD forum yet. I find it a little had to navigate this forum/website. Do you know of any? I would appreciate the help. You are right, it would be helpful to talk with people that go though the same thing. I was also hoping to find a support system/forum for my husband. |

In case you haven't found them yet on here. This is the BPD forum here https://psychcentralforums.com/borde...lity-disorder/
And here is the PTSD forum https://psychcentralforums.com/post-traumatic-stress/ Sorry it took me a minute to get back with you. I was off work for three days and I only come here at work. There are too many prying eyes around my house __________________ I think I need help 'cause I'm drowning in myself. It's sinking in, I can't pretend that I ain't been through hell.
