New to forum and grateful
Hi 👋 there
I am new to this forum and have been researching BPD after completing 2 modules of DBT at a mental health support clinic. I am recognising from the BPD description here that I really fit the categories described. I have had treatment for 20 years for anxiety driven depression, however it really resonates for me that BPD is probably more accurate. I have raised with my psychiatrist who is excellent however i feel my insight is seen as ‘tricky’ or ‘too complex’. I’m interested in joining conversations with those with lived experience of BPD and to thank all the brave people willing to talk about it. I would love to hear any tips for ACCEPTANCE and owning the condition, and to admit that I try DBT skills and tend to give up so hope to read stories from others of how they persist with DBT skills. Thank you 🙏
