Struggling with BPD: Seeking Self-Help or Therapy?

KazJenkins

I want to better understand BPD and me. It has torn my marriage apart, it has torn me apart. Is there any sort of self help I can do before going to therapy or... Do I need to just try and find a therapist to talk to? I'm tired of it being stigmatized too. I just... need help... I guess...

      Someone sent me this link yesterday. I haven’t used it yet so I can’t really speak for it but I thought I would pass it along: https://dbtselfhelp.com/ I also recommend looking up Dr. Daniel Fox on YouTube. He has amazing videos that will teach you EVERYTHING about BPD. There are also workbooks you can get on Amazon. This one is helping me and has been recommended by tons of people on the BPD Facebook group I’m on: The Borderline Personality Disorder Workbook: An Integrative Program to Understand and Manage Your BPD (A New Harbinger Self-Help Workbook) https://a.co/d/936hbJZ It happens to be written by Dr. Fox.

          @KazJenkins You are welcome. I’m also here if you want to talk about any of it or just need a friend. I know I could use one too sometimes.

      Okay so, talking to a therapist will definitely help. I know it first, it might seem scary, but talking to a therapist and being put on the right medication to help will be wonders. Try to talk to your partner communication is key, express to them how you're feeling. Talk to trusted friends and family and do lots of research, one of the hardest things to realize and accept is that you're not alone in this even when you feel like you are.
