Dealing with Mood Swings: Seeking Advice on BPD

OMG I am literally going through the same thing. I have these crazy mood swings that are a new thing and my therapist keeps mentioning bipolar and I’m in denial right now, I don’t want that to be true.

If your mood swings are severe and feel like they’re out of your control, it could be BP, or BPD, or, manic depressive state. I was in a manic depressive state for years at a time, constant swinging emotions and dangerous habits. It’s hard to pay attention to symptoms, but so long as you acknowledge your mood changes you should be able to pin down other behaviors. I hope this makes sense and I hope it helps. Getting a screening from a mental health professional should help you immensely :3

I thought I was BP too but they said I’m not. So it makes no sense but I get what you’re saying. I get pissed at the smallest thing my BF does or happy.

thank u all for the advice and talk❤❤

BPD works in absolute extremes. If you feel that this is seriously impacting you, please reach out and get help. The people around you just want the best for you!

I can’t tell you much about BPD. I have seasonal depression and that makes me have major mood swings, and depression can also be that way too. But I definitely think you should ask a psychiatrist or doctor to give you some peace of mind

Hey, just so you know, BPD stands for Borderline Personality Disorder. The acronym for Bipolar Disorder is BD. I have been told that both disorders are helped by using grounding techniques and some DBT skills, but I’m not totally sure on that one.

Me too, I'll even be in a happy moment and just get a wave of sadness that ruins my day

I don't really have advice but I have been feeling the same way. One second I'm happy and the next in really sad for some reason. I also get really jealous easily. So your not alone in this dont worry I'm sure everything is going to be okay
