when i was very young, i think about 6 or so, my parents took me to a shrink. she said i was emotionally unstable. when i turned 17, another shrink diagnosed me with BPD. this was reinforced by another shrink when i was 19, who said i have a very severe case of it, along with traits from other personality disorders. therapy didn't help. i took medication while i was forced to stay in hospital after a failed attempt, and while it did take the suicidal thoughts away, i was so drugged i could not function like a regular person. i spat or puked it up for the rest of my stay because i couldn't handle feeling like a fucking machine.
it feels like such a cruel, cruel joke. i've got it good. against all odds, and the doctors called it a miracle, i managed to learn how to walk despite being severely deprived of oxygen at birth. i'm middle class. i haven't suffered any familial losses or those of ones close to me. i'm currently in the first year of university.
i'd gauge that i had a good childhood. i've never been heavily abused. i was almost always bullied, but never severely. so i can rule that possibility out when trying to figure out why i am like this.
but i want to die. i just want to die so, so badly. i think it's because of that oxygen deprivation at birth. while i am entirely mobile, it took away the part of my brain that's responsible for me having normal emotional responses, and, you know, not being suicidal all the fucking time.
sorry if this doesn't make any sense, i'm tipsy and just want to get this off my chest...
