    I wreckon I have borderline personality disorder.

    My emotions are a train wreck.

    I had a intense upbringing which ment growing up early , mind games and abusive relationships. And then life


    Eventually it led me to being unstable always having to look over my back aggression issues the list goes on.

    I've never been able to settle in relationships because of it I feel trapped in them,

    I wreckon I have developed Bpd .

    Doesn't matter how good people treat you or respect people show. It doesn't matter . I'm stuck in this dysfunctional pattern . Me against the world. It's fucked. I could be in a relationship and there's been plenty of girls I'm attracted to. But i think I'm too unstable . I am too unstable

    I haven't been diagnosed with it but I'm pretty sure of it.

    Anyone deal with this

    I would recommend getting a MMPI. It will help you understand if this is a condition you need to worry about. Have you sought professional help? Either way mental disorders are not the cause of sexual addictions, they play a role, but they aren't the cause. It just means you need professional help for your sexual addiction and for the mental disorder, if you have one.

    Yes, I have BPD. One of the components of it is impulsivity. It does not make recovery impossible, but it adds to the challenge for sure. I am happy to talk through any questions you have. You are not alone in fighting this addiction with this extra challenge.

    I have borderline and bio polar and you get hyper sexuality with this plus the compulsivity. I’ve found cutting out porn has been a massive step which was then leading to fetish and more extreme stuff, blocking websites has made this easier. But seeing a psychotherapist to work on the underline issues has been a massive game changer. I messed up today big at work and had a crap nights sleep. I got the rush of frustration and stress. But did not even think of p or and escort etc let alone get triggered. I’ve kept at it for years now and feels great to be breaking out the other side :)
