About Me
I'm here because my girlfriend has BPD II and is an addict (to everything but injecting heroin) and I want to learn everything I can so I can help us cope with it all.

Close Families & Friends Of Addicts
my girlfriend is an everything (except maybe heroin) addict. Everything else is the same: lying, stealing, cheating...
Treatments
- Patience Working / Worked
- I love her dearly, more than anyone. Being in the Marines taught me patience--"hurry up and wait". Yeah, it usually works--sometimes its the drugs talking, not her.
- Talking Working / Worked
- I've spoken to addicts, recovering addicts, counselors, and FF of addicts, it sometimes helps, other times it just infuriates me.
- Writing Working / Worked
- I'm a writer, so yeah, it works. I've written so much on the computer that I've switched to longhand on nice antique paper--three reams in a month.
Close Narcolepsy
Through college, everyone thought I was just lazy. Then the cataplexy started. I'm taking 3/10mg Ritalin daily now. It helps some.
Treatments
- Ritalin Working / Worked
- it works, but these things are designed for little kids. 10mg? For a 166 lb man is only effective for two to three hours. It works though.
