Morning, all. My name here is sparrow, that will do for now. I was diagnosed with bpd almost three years ago. My family was involved with cps at the time. I found out through an evaluation that they had ordered. The court ordered counselor I was seeing didn't push treatment for my bdp (I later found out that she believed the people with bpd are broken and can not get better!). I didn't start getting real treatment until my husband and I separated 6 months later.

I've been in recovery for three years now. I've learned a lot about myself, my diagnoses (bpd, depression and anxiety) and how my past and present have shaped me. I'm still in treatment and always will be. It's tough. Living with bpd is a struggle. I thank God that I have a few people in my life who are supportive and compassionate. My husband now being one of them. We're working on our marriage, still separated, but becoming friends. (A miracle, nothing less.)

I'm here because I want to connect more with others who struggle with bpd. I hope to be able to gain some more insight into what goes on in my head. And who knows, maybe I can help someone else get some insight into their own minds.
