Hi there. I just joined this site and have already posted in the Welcome Wagon. I've spent nearly the last hour crying while reading up on BPD. I'm about 99.9% sure I have it. I have all the symptoms and it makes so much sense now why my head abuses me so much.

I am sick of taking my negative feelings out on my fiance. I know he must be amazing to put up with me and all my problems, but I can't get it out of my head that he'll leave me if it keeps going. Most of all, I just want to stop treating him the way I have been. He just lost his mother to suicide, he doesn't need me repeating her behaviour...

I want to get help. Unfortunately, I don't know how to find a therapist or anything where I am... I don't know what to do....Can anyone offer any advice?

Try the phone book or "google" your local health providers to see a doctor, first and foremost. Keep asking for the next directions to try to find a therapist who hopefully specializes in mental health and go from there.

I recommend to anyone reading this to not self-diagnose. That may be a general rule for all medical issues (physical or mental) for anyone.

Good luck finding the right help.

Which country are you in?

(If you're in the UK, I can offer some suggestions...)
