Title: I've noticed something... Post by: Truth in Ruin on May 22, 2013, 01:34:52 PM I think I'm on to something here. In my experience, it seems that the borderline is happier in the morning, and more emotionally distraught at night. Maybe it's just what I have experienced. I thought it was worth noting at least.

I would guess most people are more irritable at the end of the day when they feel tired or hungry. Of course, people with BPD have extreme and unstable emotions - so the effects get magnified.
Title: Re: I've noticed something... Post by: Truth in Ruin on May 22, 2013, 08:07:30 PM Good point briefcase. I do find myself less emotional at night because I'm too tired to care, so maybe the BPD person sees that, and they don't like it? Anyway, maybe I'm reading into it too much, but it did seem like my EX and I had more problems at night.

He'll do anything to make us both miss work (I used to fall into the trap in the past. Now I don't) in the morning, and he'll do anything to keep us from sleeping at night.
