truly_annie Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 :mellow: Hello all fellow users. My name is truly_annie and I am 20/ f/ surrey. I hope to make friends on here and share my thoughts and feelings with others aswell as help others with the info and stuff I have gained from being in the mental health system for the last 7 years. Ok, that was a rather long sentence.... sorry!Im feeling rather crap tonight. My mum is ill and I usually depend on her a lot so I dont have her to support me at the moment. So im feeling a bit like a lost sheep. I recently came out of hospital (psych) and have just started to try and rebuild my life; working, driving lessons, voluntary work, applying for uni, college etc. I do fear im taking on too much though.Im so fed up with borderline personality disorder. It rules my life! Thanks for listening. I dont want to post too much all at once. Take care,TA xxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feistymiss Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 i understand where you are coming from annie and i think you will find this site offers a lot of support to ppl with BPDjust reach out and someone will replythere does seem to be a lot happening at the mo in your life, and perhaps in order to cope, some things will have to be prioritisedi hope your mum recovers soon and that you manage to stabilise your emotions and fears in order to cope and to stay strongsorry if im not making a whole lot of sense, but someone on the site was posting unnecessary comments, which rattled me enough to comment on and usually i havent found that kind of negativity here so i hope you find your feet and feel welcomed enough to be able to reach out to othersbest wishes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lily-Bee Posted October 30, 2007 Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 nice to meet you I understand the feeling of wanting to do certain things and then setting the standards too high.I did this often and always ended up having some sort of break down because I asked too much of myself and so I have learned to take little steps and be proud of myself when doing those.Maybe you can learn from my mistakes and go easier on yourself now instead of later when things become too much for you.You are a good person just as you are and you don´t have to do things to prove that.Lilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Hi Laura, I just noticed we share a birthday....wonder if our difficulties stem, in part, from being Geminis :-) Hi -Glad to see you on the site, don't worry about posting too much.

icu_baby Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Try quiting some of your activities for the time being eg voluntary work. With driving, take fewer lessons (drive automatic if possible - its alot easier and faster to learn) consider doing part-time work or uni until you feel you can cope with either full-time.

kib0ne Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Welcome truly_annie. It does seem like you have taken a lot on, but I wish you all the best with it, don't worry if you have to put some things on the back burner for a while though if the pressure gets to much. Best to look out for yourself eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
