What was it that made you think, “oh, they have BPD?”
I was with someone with BPD for 2 years before we found out what BPD was. She was originally treated for bipolar, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. She was on 7 different psych meds that made absolutely no sense to me Until a suicide attempt caused a hospital to detox her from all medications and basically start over.
Once I found out about BPD, everything fell into place like Tetris.
The biggest indicator for me was how she could go from loving me, wanting children, wanting marriage, and adoring me, to despising me in an absolute fashion.
There was no mid-ground. She either loved me and I could do no wrong, or she hated my entire existence and I was the worst person alive.
Aside from a clear diagnosis from a mental health professional, what was your light globe moment about your pwBPD?
