Title: How long do the angry periods last in your pwBPD? Post by: momtara on July 20, 2014, 09:12:44 PM Mine would go on for 3 days, then like that, they'd just stop. Of course, triggers started them. I got it to the point when I could go three weeks without an upset, as long as I walked on eggshells. But three weeks was about the limit - then he'd be set off by something.
People have told me that BPD sufferers have their raging periods for an hour or a few hours, but it seems reasonable that it can last days.

In our rocky 5 years on and off that's probably the longest we dated and the most tumultuous time. Eventually I got to the point of feeling pushed away so much that I would leave, until I missed her badly and sought to reconcile.
I don't know that I ever tried to measure how long the anger would last. It could be anger or silent treatment, or just really mean behavior. I've certainly seen it last longer than a day. |
