Hi Sarahmarie,
here's what I think your strategy ought to be for this week (and possibly the next ones).In the therapists' office, you discuss all these things (namely BPD), you reserve some LIMITED time in the week to think about it, take notes, prepare your next session (say, 1 hour per day?).
The rest of the time, you treat yourself well, do things you like, think of the things you enjoy in life, do things you enjoy, see people you love, etc. In other words, you LIVE and enjoy life! Do not obsess on the BPD issue, you'll just hurt yourself and make yourself miserable. There is more to life than that, and you have so much to learn, do, feel - make sure that outside of this LIMITED time you take to deal with the therapy issues, you have fun and enjoy life.
How about that for a recovery plan? Try it at least, I think it can be good for you! And anyone else who's in therapy.
Have a good week!
