I have BPD and major anxiety disorder and depression, and mixed with living in rural America, a la flyover state, I don’t get many opportunities to socialize face to face. I do what I can on through discord but sometimes it’s not enough and sometimes I just think random stuff such as plans, sfw desires, tech stuff (computer guy) and whatever.

So in addition to my question is that, how can I fight my habitual emotional repression towards “non positive” emotions like sadness.

Thank you ahead of time for your responses, it means a lot.

PS, I’m doing therapy (mainly EMDR, bc trauma) and on Prozac and Buspar.

    That’s fair, I do see a therapist, I just wanted to see what others think about it. I get it that it may also be a little too personal with very scant info given.

      in your shoes i would definitely pose these thoughts to my therapist.

      i don’t have bpd, but i’m on the spectrum like you (autism) and i sometimes see lemming share their own experiences on the nuero-divergent communites scattered throughout lemmy like the neurodiverse and autism communities.

      communities like that are where i would go if i were looking for engagement on lemmy regarding bpd.
