I Have Borderline Personality Disorder, and I've Grown So Much Since My Diagnosis
Growing up, I was almost always happy. It wasn't until I started high school, and one of my closest friendships ended unexpectedly, that I suddenly began to spiral. I didn't know why this seemingly small life event had affected me so deeply, but it had. For a while, I cried almost every day - and because I didn't understand why this friendship had ended, I constantly questioned my self-worth. I began feeling paranoid about other friendships and relationships, because I was so insecure and worried that other friends would leave me. Looking back, this was the first time I had experienced what I now know to be symptoms of borderline personality disorder, a diagnosis that's associated with fear of abandonment. It was also the first time I ever considered that I might need help.
