Is SSRI's a treatment for BPD? It's like the door was opened when I was diagnosed. It felt like someone understood me for the first time. I have had 3 marriages and sabotaged the first one, second was so abusive and the third is a wonderful man who encourages me to seek help but I find there are times I push him to the limit to see if he will leave me. I was sexually abused as a child by my stepfather and told my Mother who said she did believe me but couldn't leave him because she couldn't support us. I resented her for years for that and only now as she is in her mid 60's do i find i can stand to be around her but hate to touch her. I am overweight and eat impulsively not from hunger. feel like a ball of mess at times and other times can see the light and try to function as normal as i can. Of course, not sure what normal is. I've seen people who drive broke down cars with nothing and they seem happy why can't I be happy? I mean completely happy. is anyone? I am now on Celexa and feel more in control and not so out of control but don't feel like I want to be. Any help would be appreciated.
