Hey all,

It's been a long time, but due to some very positive encouragement from a good friend (thanks again, hun) I've decided to come back and really take this bull by the horns and I'm hoping to use bpdrecovery as a support and maybe stop draining the life out of my friends/family. I know they need a break. Oh and I used to be betrue, but I feel like I'm in a different place in life now, so I felt a name change was in order. Not that it's honestly much better a place to be in than I was before, but hopefully there's hope, as I've taken to thinking.

I guess it's been about a year since I've been on the site.. Since then I broke up with my fiancee, started dating someone else and (surprise!) still have the same issues, went on disability, got diagnosed with bipolar, took a truly stunning amount of lithium for eight months, got an "oops" and rediagnosed with bpd along with yet another med change, quit my job (in engineering), started a new job in my field (social services) and through the new job was confronted with all of my problems on a platter through my clients. Then I finally called a program that offers DBT although to be quite frank, I have very little hope left.

I found that the last time I used the site, as great as it is, I used it more to vent my issues. I DO need to do that sometimes, I think we all do, but I want to be more productive in healing this time, and really working at getting better, if that is even possible for me. Regardless, I'm happy to be back! :D

I'll try and keep pointing you to using the tools if I see you venting without hope.

Welcome back!!!

Thanks Kari, I'd appreciate that, I'd like to start working on stopping the spiral because I'm getting very good at anticipating it.

Hey Bogs, thanks again!! :)
