Ugh...very stressful therapy appt. yesterday...seems when I get confimration that I am scr*wed up...I take that to limit..a good excuse to DRINK. I was so beside myself yesterday...I owe 3000 to the government..I'm trying to be approved for disability...the process is dragging.

​I needed a firm diagnoisis to support my claim. I went in like a raving maniac and said my medication is not working.  I told them I am not exaggerating my symptoms..they did agree that I have been in treatment FOREVER...more than 10 years.

​they diagnosed me with BPD...so I took that as an excuse..that no one is medicating me appropriately..nor have they been for many years...so lets get DRUNK...and i have done a good job of it..at bar last night..karooke...and first thing this a.m. beer to feel better. UGH.

    Misssy 2. I strangely thought we had lots in common and this post makes me think it more!! I am also diagnosed as having BPD but still struggle with what this actually means in the grand scheme of things. I hope you are feeling better and more focused today? Focused on the good rather than the bad!!

      My brain is in the dumps today.  But I didn't drink.  I did get a phone call from the pulmonary dr...they want to do a scan on my lungs again....and a call from the gastro dr...they want to do a scan on my stomach!  STRESS...always...But, the drinking just made the stress more.

      ​BPD is a fluctuaction in the moods ...drastic ones...bipolar is almost the same...but the bipolar UP moods (mania) last  longer....with us...my therapist said we fluctate many times throughout a day...and there are alot of other aspects to it...I just can identify SO much with the mood flucuation.
