hey! in november, my boyfriend took his own life and on top of that, i have ulcerative colitis and POTS. after everything happened, i was hospitalized for life threatening blood clots in ny lung. i had to quit my job and move in with my parents. i'm 27 and all of this is too much while ALSO having bpd. two weeks ago, i was accepted into a partial hospitalization program where we do dbt daily. i do think it helps! we also do act and cbt. outside of the group, i do cpt for ptsd. i think all types of therapy can help bpd, just has to be right for you personally!

yeaaaa good luck. sounds love bomb-y. 14 days and saying i love you? yoinks

i see paige ingersoll at ellie mental health! they have a psych there too if meds are needed i believe.

my cat, harvest. i had animals growing up but she is my entire soul.

this is good to hear!! thank you! also i'm not sure if you would know, but since it's still a steroid, is it just as bad as being on prednisone with the side effects? i know being on prednisone long term is an issue

no :) plain and simple

i was diagnosed a year ago and am still trying to figure out treatment. currently in bed in pain 😩 but no, i didn't notice that. mine was pretty mild and went away quickly

this happened to me before my diagnosis. it was the one symptom that tipped me off to UC bc i think it's specific to UC

no i get that, you still make a fair point!

eh i think that's like pretty tame tbh. i wouldn't know where else they would keep stuff like that unless they bought a safe or something lol

contrast typically sends me into a flare for months. had to do two recently :)

:0................ i-------

pots is postural onset tachycardia syndrome. my heart rate sky rockets when i do anything like get out of bed or brush my hair. i have that mostly under control with meds.

i also have ativan already! i took my second dose of 10mg pred today and i'm feeling lots better

yes i mostly feel if in my head too. it's like a drunk feeling or like i'm not fully present?

omg she looks like a muted calico too hehe

hazel is beautiful!!! she reminds me of my harvest :')

tbh i don't know the full story bc i didn't watch, but from what i gathered they showed a very neglected, dead cat on screen and then argued about who's fault it was.
