BPD- Chronic?

[ph34rshylock]

I've been told that my diagnosis of BPD is most likely going to be chronic in that I've been through DBT, therapy, hospitizations and nothing has helped.
Meds have helped to an extent, but then I was overmedicated and that just made things worse after gaining 60 lbs.

I've given up on ever recovering. And I think everyone around me has given up on me as well.

Do not give up. That would be to call God a liar. He can change you if you are willing to submit to His will for your life.

I was in therapy from 1988 till the present, with the same therapist, and this year he finally agreed to take away my BPD diagnosis. I was not diagnosed until age 32. There were many times I wanted to give up, but a friend kept reminding me that God did not give up on me, why should I?

Get a discipler in your life. Find an older, Christian woman with whom you can have a discipleship relationship and submit to her teaching. Ask her to teach you about God's grace and love for you.

Hugs,

I don't think BPD is chronic. I was diagnosed with BPD in 1991 after spending alot of time in the hospital. A few years ago my therapist changed my diagnosis to Schzo-Affective Disorder and Post Tramatic Stress Disorder
