[quote=Anonymous]I was diagnosed with BPD at 26. I am not sure if it was correct. But, it was treated with therapy...to stop the suicidal stuff. I was very volatile. If people did not do what I wanted, I would lose it. At the same time, 90% of the time, I seemed fine. It came to a head with me one day, and I had a choice...therapy or jail. But, the real change occurred in 2002 when I started on the SSRI's. I felt the stress just melt away from the body. I am thinking my BPD was really reaction to high anxiety. The fight or flight reaction triggered the outbursts -- fight. And, based on my readings since then, I am not sure if I was BPD. But, the question of how did I not know it...my reactions were the only reality I knew. I did not know what it was like not to feel volatile. I did not like it, but did not know any better. Now I do.
