    Sending lots of strength your way @IainJammyboy <3

    It can be really hard managing the news of a diagnosis and I can really hear how much you're suffering every day and how hard it is right now. I can't imagine how hard this is to go through day by day. You're so strong for fighting and surviving each day, and I'm really glad you found our community here. We'll always be here helping you through this, and hopefully it helps even just a little <3

    How have things been since your diagnosis? Have you been referred for any support to help you?

    I'm wondering if you've explored much of Mind's website? They have lots of information on BPD on their website such as ways to cope, and also some blogs from other people who've had DBT therapy which is often talked about as a helpful way to manage some of the feelings you've mentioned here.

    Keep us updated with how you're feeling Iain and remember we're here, always a message away :star:
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    @IainJammyboy idk anything about bpd but I can say that not everyone’s experiences will be identical, maybe this is the worst you’ll ever feel and it’ll soon get better? Please keep going, and I really hope you can get some support

    Hey @IainJammyboy I'm so sorry to hear you're going through such a hard time at the moment - I can't imagine how difficult it must be for you. Remember you are so strong to be here sharing this with us and we are all around to support you <3 As @Aife said, it could be useful to look around Mind's website for coping techniques, or going back to whoever diagnosed you to ask about support. I hope you find some comfort here in our community and please keep reaching out <3
