anyone elts with bpd?

i got diagnosed with it when i was 13 so that and hormones make me flip sooooo easy. if any of you have it can you let me know how you deal.... and calm your self down...

I am an emotional rollercoaster and my husband gets the brunt of it. Since no medication is safe I go see my therapist every week and am learning some coping skills. When you get irate try doing some breathing exercises or even take a walk.

I was diagnosed with it at 15. I had lots of therapy, including anger management. Some of that stupid sounding stuff they tell you to do, actually does work. Like counting down from 10, punching a pillow. The best thing to do is to find your big triggers and try to avoid them as much as you can and if you feel yourself getting mad, check yourself and walk away. For years I wore a rubber band on my wrist and whenever I felt like I was going to snap I'd flick the rubber band against my wrist. It usually snapped me out it, I still do that sometimes when I'm really stressed. Something else I do is write down everything that's bothering me on a piece of paper and then tear it to shreds. You just have to find what works for you.

Being on here and BP is the worst thing. But like the other person said learn your triggers!! I used to be a junkie and heard of staying away from triggers but had no idea that triggers could mean something not related to drugs. I have 97 days clean, am 8 weeks pregnant and off my psych meds. My world is all upside down and find myself pissed off one second, crying my eyes out the next and then laughing my ass off. just like you said. but im here if you wanna talk.
