> email (Justolme@aol.com) or add to the treadI have BPD and the disorder makes it difficult to trust in any drug or doctor, however.
After 3 years of trying to be happy and not having much luck I decide to give Zoloft a try (100 mg's) for now.
With the depression that comes and goes with BPD I hope the Zolft will give me the advantage to just let go and enjoy all that is.
Caution. In the past I have never tried to commit suicide when not on Zoloft and I self injure more often on Zoloft. So I am being carefull and am logging each day
to make sure that I remain aware of all changes. I have only decided to take Zoloft recently (again) and only because I
believe that I am stronger emotionally and the suicide and self injury are not as common. Without drugs for 3 years I have not had a sucide attempt however self injury has been at its highest.
I have takin responsability for the self injury and I work very hard not to do it.
Mostly for the last 3 years I have stayed in the house and did nothing with my life.
I believe that I am doing the right thing with the Zoloft. Any comments?
BPD is a real hell to live in. We are never understood and doctors hate us mostly because we are smart
((there is no known case of a person with BPD having an IQ less than 130..average is 100)
So you all will just have to live with the fact that we are smart and get over it, ha ha Just a joke but
the figures are in fact true.)
and question there authority and prescriptions, ha ha.
But the reality it is an illness and we are not capable of good judgement. Strange though we are always held
responsable for it. Funny thing though a man with no legs is not held responsable
if he falls??Any e-mail from souls who suffer from BPD is welcome
