I agree- it could be BPD, which is quite addressable. Alternately it could be something more serious but no one here should diagnose you... a good councilor can visit with you and offer a possible diagnoses.

Just remember than many of us suffer from this kind of thing and it doesn't affect your value as a person, and doesn't make you 'bad'- it simply means you have an illness that needs some medical assistance to treat. Occasionally people can respond negatively, and become self-critical as they feel as if they're broken.... which is 100% untrue.

There are some good BPD books on Amazon. Successful treatment is going to involve working with your family, as they have to learn how to exist around you. The skills are pretty simple and have to do with how you all communicate with each other... neat (and simple) stuff!

I totally get you, i use to be the same. My relationship suffere because of my mood swings. One minute i am happy and on top of the world next minute i am 3000 feet under ground. The best thing is to decide what you really want and what really matter to you. The problem is that its get tot he stage that you forget whats really important in your life. Go and se a Phsyholog. They can really help you clear you mind and open your eyes about things. If you don't fell like talking to starnger speak to someone that you trust. Trust me its helps once you get advice, becaus ethere is always to sides to it. Its really not thatbad as it looks, you just need to find your self and figur out what makes you happy and take it step at the time. Trust me it work, i am still woking through it but ita much batter and i can't remeber the last time i was thins happy.
