Welcome to my Blog!
My name is Danielle, I'm 36 years old and I have Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). I was just diagnosed under a year ago with BPD however I have suffered from the symptoms for over 25 years.
I am now receiving Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) for the Borderline which is helping me to recover from it's sometimes debilitating symptoms.
I started up this blog initially as a tool to distract myself from negative thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It was also a way for me to see the progress that I have made which can also be helpful to me on a bad day. It then became more about contributing to a community of people who are probably in a lot of pain and understand, like me, what it feels like to have BPD.
It is noted many times throughout this Blog that I am not a medical adviser, but a sufferer of BPD and I am not an expert, but a consumer of DBT. I can't give advice, I can't say if you may have BPD but I can demonstrate my personal journey how I deal with my Borderline life and what skills from DBT help me to get through it.
Information about Borderline Personality Disorder and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy is described in more detail under their respective headings on my home page.
So again I welcome you.
