I really hate when I feel like someone is judging me, but deep down I know they really aren’t, and I’m just judging myself.
“Marshall also intends to expand the scope of his Project Borderline, a nonprofit organization devoted to raising awareness for borderline personality disorder, a malady that he has been struggling with for several years.”
So awesome. I love my Bears.

Last night I learned that my BPD symptoms really come out when I’m overly tired.
Sometimes I’m really positive my boyfriend is a saint to put up with me.
My therapist recently told me that I was ready to be done with therapy. We were going to have one more session in two weeks, but I had to postpone, so it’s been 3 weeks since that session, and I’ve honestly had a really rough backslide. I’ve been insecure, neurotic, self-hating, having lots of mood swings, and just general feeling like my insides are going to boil over. I don’t think I’m doing this because I feel abandoned by her (though I love her and she is the most amazing therapist I’ve ever had), but maybe I am subconsciously because I’ve heard that this is common for people with BPD.
So, I guess my question is have you ever backslide into depression/anxiety/etc. after a period of doing well because your therapist told you you were ready to leave therapy or cut down on sessions?

yes
and then at the same time I’m worried about being engulfed, I’m worried that if I ask for space he will be okay with giving it to me, which is both what I want and what I don’t want because it would mean he doesn’t love me as much as I love him (in my mind).
this is exhausting.
