> Sorry Jay. If it helps--it's very common to lash out at the very ones you love most in times of great distress. If I remember correctly--people with borderline personality disorders "attack" like that. The common theme/thread among them is fear of abandonment. I think it affects mostly women--but it may be worth looking into as one of several options--although I'm no expert. I do know that life can be sweet---but it helps to visualize that "sweetness" and not dwell on the negatives. Often, what we expect happens--simply precipitated by our mind's subconscious efforts to sabotage any positive outcome. Maybe because we're not "worthy" or whatever. I really wish I had the answer for you and my sympathy runs deep. I would strongly suggest a good pdoc . It's rarely a good thing to "write your own prescriptions" Best of luck--and I'll say another prayer--for whatever that's worth.
Hi Bobby. Thanks so kindly for your very nice words.(and your prayers too) You know I have thought about the borderline personality disorder dx before, as I also happened to respond best to the couple of meds that people with bpd also usually only respond to. Those are high dose Risperdal, and Haldol. But also as with bpd, those meds only REALLY work for a short period of time. Well, I am going back to the doctor this week, so maybe some adjustments or additions or something. Thanks very much for the support. It means TONS. :)Best,
Jay
