Hi
I have been living with diagnosed BPD for about 20 years now. After what feels like forever trying to figure out what meds worked for me they still warned me to be aware of things that cause additional stress because it can still trigger me. I recently discovered is that they didn't mean just bad stress but also good stress. I have been hyper aware of life events that stress me out-stress from work, other medical procedures for me/my family, financial stress, etc. What I didn't expect was for good stress to also trigger me. I just signed on a new house that I have been planning for a while now, but I've noticed my equilibrium is off again. Has anyone else experienced more episodes during a time where 'good things' are happening in your life?
Thank you!
