ok, cupid?

i've been disassociating for about 2 weeks straight, which has really impeded on my studies. I took a Vyvanse today to see if that would help, and so far it's working.  anyways, so I joined OkCupid on a whim because a friend mentioned it casually in conversation. it's very LGBT friendly! moreso than I thought it would be. I've met several people from Iran. I went on an OkCupid date Saturday which went really well!! we went out to a coffee shop kinda near me and I had a great fruit smoothie.

some positive things

my boyfriend and I had a really long talk about what we need to change in our relationship, and I feel really good now. it was mainly about how we needed to adjust ourselves around my bpd. i'm so excited to actually like, implement some coping skills and learn how to function in a world that was not made for me. to me, i visualize it like code-switching almost, except instead of simply flipping between one language and another, i'm flipping between behaviours and un-learning the ones that are ha

ugh

nothing has been improving so far.   i'm so tired of trying to do the right thing, like communicate my needs to people, only to be shut down and dismissed. i'm so tired of feeling like my very existence is hurting the people i love. i'm just so tired.

Intro

I figure I should introduce myself. I'm Alicja. I developed borderline personality disorder due to abuse I endured as a child. I've been in a relationship for seven months, and it's been a strain on both of us, due to my intense mood swings and fear of abandonment. It really fucking sucks, because when it comes to him, I have no object permanence. When he's not near me, I think he doesn't love me anymore. We got into a fight today about it, and he's getting further and further away from me. I'm

      It's been 5 weeks since I said goodbye to Mija. I can barely stand to go in my bedroom, where she used to curl up by my pillow when it was bedtime. Man, this sucks.
