Hey, welcome to the forum!
Tw: Suicide mention
I'm very sorry you've had such horrible experiences in the past. I totally understand hating your diagnosis, but I hope the community here can help you with your feelings and even encourage a happy life for you. I've been diagnosed with BPD since May of 2012, and it hasn't always been uphill. I too researched BPD when I got diagnosed and was discouraged by what I found. The things being said about BPD made me wish I had succeeded in my suicide attempt. It made me want to try again. And so I became dedicated to forming a resource and community where people could learn about their disorder without feeling like monsters.
In the future, please remember to post trigger warnings for triggering content such as suicide and self-harm. We don't want other members to read things which could cause them to relapse or trigger them into suicidal thoughts!

Hey, bpdguy.
Tw: suicide mention
You have had a rough time and I can understand your frustration and despair with life right now. It's exceedingly difficult to see any hope when everything keeps going wrong around you.
This place (and the original blog) has a lot of healthy, unbiased information on BPD and methods for coping with your diagnosis. I'm not sure if you've read through them but it might help you see your BPD a different way and for you to find ways to help yourself. Not everything will work for you because every individual is different but some things may be able to take the strain off you a little and enable you to breathe.
If you don't mind me asking what is it you hope to get out of joining the forum? Can we help in anyway? I need to reiterate here we aren't a replacement for professional help but maybe we can help you find resources that can help you in your life.
