" The will power needs to come from you wanting to get better and hopefully putting all of this behind you. That's what drives me. It's all very scary and doesn't make sense, but itsn't it better to be scared to do something that could help you and do it, rather than to always wonder if it could have helped you. For me I just need to have some sort of "life" so I do anything and everything that could help me. "

" i was sent to a specil hosp for people with BPD, had to go and stand up infront of 13 people to tell them all about my BPD and then they had to vote whether i got in or not. i was to live there for a year ... the first interview i put off.
When there is something u know u need to do, you tend to putalot of pressure on urself to do it and that can make it become too much. There is a time in your life when u say to yourself 'enough is enough now' and you know u have to do something ... not only for urself but for others around u too. you are strong enough to do anything, if you just put ur head in it hun! What you have to go thro cant be as bad as what u have to go thro everyday with BPD ... and it might just help for whats ahead of u 'a better life if you like' trust in yourself :) "
