Hi, I orignally posted here a month or so ago but talking about alcoholism. My GF and I just broke up last month and it's been hell. She was drinking herself into oblivion and not coming home and spending time with her new co-workers who she's known 4 months and acts like they are god. She even moved in with her boss although still has all her belongings at our place. I thought/think she had an alcohol problem but I've sense entered into therapy and have discovered she has behaviors of BPD. I have no idea if she is or not, but her behaviors are similar in most aspects expect self mutilation and suicide. I've never heard that from her. I felt like I was going insane half the time we were together. It was a lesbian relationship and she has serious issues with her sexuality. She blamed me for everything from losing her friends to stifling her when in fact she did it all to herself because she wasn't out. She seemed out of touch with reality often. Like phases of nothing mattering in the world but her and her work and would find ways to avoid the responsibilty of her actions at all costs. It really became apparently during the break up. Her behavior was crazy and all consuming. She has turned into another person and it's upsetting me greatly. Does anyone else have experiences with BPD? I am aware that it could be just a great confusion about sexuality but it appears to be more than just that. Thanks.
