I hear that those with BPD are most likely to develop a drug problem, I wonder how many bluelighters have this diagnosis?

BDP is easily treated with CBT and other behavior and thinking modification methods, as confirmed by a majority opinion of the psychiatric community.
Really? I've heard the opposite, that it's really hard to treat.
It used to be thought it couldn't be treated. But now it has been proved to be easily treated with DBT. Look it up.Really? I've heard the opposite, that it's really hard to treat.
Exactly saidFrom the 1st page that came up. Not saying it's always easy to treat or that this is the final word because as with a lot psychiatric disorders and practices it is an always evolving soft science without clear means of treatment, methods and definitive diagnosis.
BPD is treatable
In the past, many mental health professionals found it difficult to treat borderline personality disorder (BPD), so they came to the conclusion that there was little to be done. But we now know that BPD is treatable. In fact, the long-term prognosis for BPD is better than those for depression and bipolar disorder. However, it requires a specialized approach. The bottom line is that most people with BPD can and do get better—and they do so fairly rapidly with the right treatments and support.
Healing is a matter of breaking the dysfunctional patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that are causing you distress. It’s not easy to change lifelong habits. Choosing to pause, reflect, and then act in new ways will feel unnatural and uncomfortable at first. But with time you’ll form new habits that help you maintain your emotional balance and stay in control.

i empathize with you, i had a suicide attempt 2 years ago twice. I spent 50 days in a psychward, I took olanzapine for a good 3 months and carbamazepine for 6 months. Then last year i dropped everything(well not everything, i still take clonazepam 2mg every other day or so. I'm not addicted to it but lately i've been taking more cause myy anxiety is through the roof since I'm jobless atm, the covid bullshit,etc) But apart from that i'm clean from morphine and crack atm. Doing well sort of. There's light at the end of the tunnel, trust me. XX, nickWow no meds well done, I'm under the community mental health team since my last suicide attempt.... They won't let me even drop my meds anymore, perhaps that's for the best for me though.
PH TRUST ME DON'T, I once tried to commit suicide by buying 500$ of drugs at a hotel. I was determined to kill myself. Literally I bought 240mg of pure pharma morphine, 3mg of PURE pharma fentanyl, 2 40mg oxycontins, and a blister of 0.5 alprazolam. I woke up at hte hospital with a tube down my throat and my hands tied down to the bed so i didn't take out the tube. All of that stuff was like a 70ML shot at like 12 PM, I downed everything and seriously thought i was never gonna wake up again. Police found me comatose at 2 am. Don't know how i survive to this day. My tolerance was massive around that time but still all that shit would kill like 3 normal people without a tolerance :/In huve contradiction to my above comment, I do sometime consider a big shot of H as the 'next way to go' but it's luck of the draw. Done too much damage.... Sorry if this is getting a bit deep!
