Title: First time here
Post by: Strongnfree on March 13, 2017, 07:16:07 AM
Hi. I have been struggling with my husbands extreme mood wings and intense anger for sometime now. Up until recently, I thought somehow I was responsible. I thought it was something I could control if I made changes to myself and my own personal relationships ie: terminating friendships with others, sensoring my feelings and basically living a life walking on eggshells. Sacrificing my own needs in attempt to make him "happy", has changed nothing. And as result I have lost myself in the process.  After searching and researching for answers, I feel that my husband may have BPD. Although he's never been diagnosed by a medical professional, I feel that the discription of symptoms, describes his behaviours to a tee. I have read Randi kregers books recently and found them very empowering and validating. Finally I know that how he acts has nothing to do with me. I am struggling now with what to do next, but I am eager to get my life back and start feeling like "me" again. I have decided to join your group in attempt to get support and strength from others dealing with similar issues. Thank you.

Welcome,
It seems that you took the first steps, and you have a positive attitude. I hope you find the support you need and find ways to improve your situation, small improvements feel great when you've been going nowhere but down, and they make a  difference.
