Can I ask what makes you think you may have BPD? Would you be willing to share some of your experiences?[/quote]

I think the worst of people. Deep trust issues. Difficulty regulating emotions. My ex left me because of all this. Yes, I acknowledge I have issues and want only the best for him and my friends. It's extremely hard for me to trust. I have noticed that I am paranoid about people trying to use somehow. I am
Miserable and want to change so badly. But I am afraid it's impossible. You see, I did have bad life experiences - physical abide by a family member, then betrayal by best friends and one boyfriend. At the same time, I do like to socialize and am a good mom (well, even my so-sick-of-me ex admits it)... [/quote]

This doesn't sound at all like Borderline Personality Disorder to me. It sounds like anxiety, perhaps abandonment issues, and some other things.

A chief characteristic of BPD is manipulation. People with BPD see others as a tool for their own selves - "what can others do for me," even it's more related to emotional things, rather than task/activity/doing sorts of things (ie - how can I get others to make them realize how important I am to them and how much they need me, and not something like - how can I get someone to help me move next weekend) [/quote]
