...See more This is mainly a rant as prompted by my path to do a step. I feel so sleepy and frustrated with myself. I have very little motivation and energy to do tasks that need doing. I have big goals but just want to sleep and and stay home. I think I need to see a doctor to check that my thyroid is okay and also meds but again-scheduling and going seems so hard. Thank you for reading.

...See more Hello community! I'm sorry if the topic I selected isn't correct. I'm looking for others who are working through DBT skills and I would like to be able to write to each other about which skills we are practicing and what we are learning from them or support if we aren't consistently practicing and need to be open and vulnerable about that. Thank you for reading my message.
I really don't know who I am

...See more Hi everyone, My path prompted me to post to a forum so here I am. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I have read up on traits of BPD and I can see myself in a lot of it. This surprised me at first-I had been diagnosed with major depressive disorder for most of my life. Today I am more aware of this sense of not knowing what I really want and not being able to sit still to listen to an inner voice that might clue me in. For a long time I have been unhappy with my work and how I spend my time. I don't know how to focus on and build up on the activities that I do want to do. I'm afraid to invest time in something else and later learn I don't want to pursue it and feel like a failure and back at square 1. I'm in therapy working on my disorder and I feel tired of this too. I wish I had more motivation or joy or gratitude for being able to access therapy and get better at living with this disorder. I also wish I had more perseverance and patience.
I'm new to this community

...See more Hello, Thank you for taking the time to read my post. My path step today is to post to one of the communities I'm in. I chose this one because yesterday I was told my mental health problems fit the category of BPD. I always thought I was just depressed but managing poorly or needed to take different meds. This new label has changed how I view my struggles and has brought up all my feelings of shame, sorrow and defectiveness. I am at home and have a lot of free time today but all I want to do is lie down and sleep.
