new here and not sure what to do

hi.

my name is charlie, my stepdad told me about this website after i had a crashout yesterday. i am in the process of being diagnosed with BPD, OCD, and OCPD. im happy to answer any questions if you have any regarding these. (i will refer to myself as having these in this post, pinky swear that im not self diagnosing, my clinical psychologist and psychiatrist both think this is accurate and im just waiting for formalities rn).

im in this weird post BPD-split limbo and im not sure what to do. this is kinda a last resort for an outlet - i was in hospital in may and since my family is very much trying to get me to 'open up' but then im honest with them and im seen as selfish, irrational and none of them understand. i know i cant expect them to as im the only one in my family with BPD, let alone OCD and OCPD as well.

so yeah, this is kinda my last hope for being apologetically and 100% unfiltered with what im going through

good to meet you all and have a wonderful day

    Hey Charlie!! Great to meet you, and this is a space where you can open up and we won't judge you here. The Community is here for you! We want to hear about what's happening for you.

    I wonder if in a comment here you can tell us a bit more about how you are feeling in your head at the moment with everything going on? (no pressure at all but we are here to listen if you want to chat)

    Great to have you here Charlie!
    The introductions section is a great place to start to introduce yourself and read about the other people on the site. Also feel free to check out the community guidelines

    I'd like to echo Leyla's words here and say that this is a place where you can talk about how you are feeling if you'd like, ask for advice, have a vent or just have a casual chat with people here!

    Look forward to seeing you around the boards!
