Please Note: If you feel like you can relate to this video, please do not self diagnose yourself. In order to find out if you have BPD it is necessary to see a professional therapist.

The song is "My Skin", by Natalie Merchant

Dedicated to those that suffer from BPD and those who wish to understand it better.
This is the very first youtube video I made.

I was debating on whether or not to put this on because it was so depressing. I didn't want to contribute to any further suffering, but after watching a video about how someone feels that has BPD, I felt like I could relate so much that I had to create my own video in hopes that other people might find something in it to relate to and not feel so alone.

I feel like everyones avoiding me, and I hate my friends but then love them when around them, I feel they hate me, and avoid me... I hate myself, but just... I dont know. Most of the time, I feel like "leave me the F**k alone..."

  • Thank you for ...

    Thank you for posting this. I've lived with BPD for 20 years and am just now beginning to learn how to cope. You don't know how important what you have done here is to someone like me.

  • Thank you so much ...

    Thank you so much for posting this. Someone I used to be close to suffers this way. I am starting to understand his constant love/hate with me all his life. I never knew which it would be, sentence to sentence, word to word, day to day or year to year. BPD explains a lot.

    I never realized they might be suffering too. His girlfriend is a BPD rageaholic, so I wonder what it is like for these two BPD alcoholics together. They fight all the time.

    All I seem to be able to do is pray. What to do?

  • I may have this. I ...

    I may have this. I am highly paranoid. Some days I hate my friend and other days I like them. I am very angry,I always punch walls. I have never been really stable. I always try to be the center of attention. I cut myself. I do not know who I am. if someone asked me it would depend on the how I am feeling and who im around right now. I am and have been suicidal.

    I'm 17 and I've suspected I have this for a while now. Even though I have things pretty well - perfect grades, in decent shape, friends I hang out with, I still feel miserable and empty inside and completely different when all alone. This video is amazing, it's like EVERY SINGLE POINT brought up applies directly to me. Thank you for this...
