I wish ! But I don't think so. In any case, I know I don't have BPD - former therapist said highly unlikely, I don't find that I fit the profile, etc.
My problem is VERY simple. I'm angry at my brother in law and at men in general for sexually harrassing and abusing me for more than 25 years. I'm angry at my family for not defending me. My doc feels that my anger is a sign of a personality disorder. I think that anger is sometimes completely justified, as is the case here. Since he continues and since nobody is defending me still, I am still angry. He harrassed me just yesterday, in front of my mom, his wife and his daughter ! Nobody said much, although my sister did react, for once. I just left to go shopping with my niece - as opposed to beating the crap out of him. If my doc thinks I'm crazy for that, so be it. As I left, I overheard him tell my sister, who was giving him a hard time about what he'd done, "it's part of her psychological health." Yeah, that's what pedophiles tell their victims. Seeing him lie in my bed, masturbating, yeah, it really helps my health. He started doing things to me when I was 8 years old too. I left yesterday because otherwise I would have become incredibly angry and he's not worth the energy. Dammit I have a PhD and I'm 34... and he still treats me like that. Wow. Anyhow, my sister and I will have a nice talk - nevermore do I want to see this man. I gave him many chances and he ruined it every time.
I have told my mom that I never want to be in the same place as him again. In the future, when they visit, I will go away for the day. I will tell the same to my sister. I don't bother talking to him because I don't consider him a human being.
I don't have BPD, I simply have a brother in law from hell. Unfortunately, there is no med for that yet (I had to talk about meds since this is on PB! :-) ).
