BPDRecovery.com: Forums

I am a 44 year young woman with 3 grown young men. I am a student at Walden University working on my MS in MHC. I was diagnosed with BPD with bipolar tendencies in 2002 as well as MDD and PTSD. I came across this site because I read the book and am working on applying the tools. I am in a long term relationship with a good man who is gone for 6 weeks and home for four. I am finding I am having major problems with that and my symptoms of BPD are off the wall. I thought I had all of this under control with therapy and have been out of therapy for a year. However dating a man who is gone a majority of the year was not something I thought I would ever have to deal with...go go fate. So here I am...dealing with abandonment issues, disassociative issues, and splitting at times. I recognize all of these and in the past have been able to rethink them and move on. My situation now is really making me work to get back on track mentally and I am here just for support and maybe a sounding board. .

welcome

All the best in working out your issues
