How To Survive Marriage (and Divorce) with Borderline Personality Disorder
From an outsider's perspective, someone with Borderline Personality Disorder can seem somewhat unstable, mean, spiteful, and childish. Unfortunately, people suffering with the disorder are quite good at masking the symptoms when entering a relationship, whether it be romantic or platonic. Keeping a relationship when you've got BPD can be difficult, as your mood swings and fear of abandonment can be extremely hard to understand, especially if your significant other has never struggled with any type of mental illness before. Once more, the symptoms can really unleash themselves once you reach a point where you are comfortable with your S.O. and can be perceived as borderline abusive (I know I was).
