doing better still a bit overwhelmed with life on it's own terms going thru major med changes that makes things a little harder to handle but I am doing it going thru a 4 month course of 16 sessions on borderline personality disorder seems to be interesting I see my shrink again today I am sick with Bronchitis which sucks I hurt all over so that on top of everything else I just wonder when it stops

Unfortunately, life keeps happening until we aren't alive anymore. Illnesses, money troubles, car problems, computer issues, phones that don't work right LOL, that's been my past 4 days!
The peace comes not from "it stopping" but from acceptance of reality and a faith that it will get better. It always does. I do know that the longer I struggle against my reality, the longer I stay stuck in seeing only the downside of it.
Hang on, smile, find gratitude for something and you'll be OK!

hey manon, I am also diagnosised with borderline personality disorder, coupled with major depression. It's tough to deal with but for me it has gotten better. I consider myself in recovery from mental health, i'm no longer suffering from it. I went to an intensive three month inpacient program for mental health. (well we were in five days a week and went home on weekends). For me since i brought the willingness that i learned from na, i did very well and actually learned how to be truely happy. It's been over 8 months since i've been to that program and i'm still going strong and not relapseing into my old negitive behaviours that go along with my disorder, and since i can manage so well i've also stopped my meds. and i'm still happy. When i heard a three month program i thought it was too long but it was the best thing i did for myself other than giving up all drugs. I'll keep you in my prayers and i hope one day you can be recoverying from mental health soon.... you can do it as long as you try
