My name's Jio, I'm 27, and about two months ago I finally found a diagnosis for my life's "secret".
I have a wonderful therapist who after only an hour's worth of time, said " oh, after all those diagnosis, no one figured out that it's BPD?"
Finally Relief!!

I've been on many different medications, have spent time with many doctors, and after 16 yrs of battling with this, I am able to work on myself and become mentally and emotionally well again. I have a husband and daughter who depend on me, and that's why I fight to beat this.

I look forward to supporting everyone here with their battle and hope that this place can become a safe haven for me as well.

Thanks!

Hi Shade of Loud!

I'm glad you finally got a diagnosis that can shed some light on your mental health for you. For me, figuring out that I was going through the wrong kinds of treatments for years and years renewed my hope.

Welcome and good luck! Where do you guys come up with all these clever names? Lol. Creativity is not one of my strong points.

I know it seems like your diagnosis has been a long time coming - and it has - but I want you to know there its so much hope for you because you have started your recovery already! I wish you the best of luck. Treatment for bpd requires a long term commitment and sometimes it's hard to stay motivated. We're here to encourage you and keep you going!

Thank you everyone for the welcoming comments. I try my best to remain optimistic about recovery as I know there are many hills and valleys that need crossing and boy is it difficult sometimes.
