Trying for the first time :)

So this is my first time of trying to quit drinking, I am only on day 12 but I’m going strong! I’ve quit because I believe I have borderline personality disorder which I always thought it was just me being drunk but I realise that I have it all the time but i can control it when sober. Anyone else dealing with the same?

I have borderline personality too but my thing is weed not drinking. Good luck for this first time ! (Sorry for my english i’m french).

Sillykid i smoke weed all day every day too! That will be the next thing on the list to give up lol thank you for the reply :slight_smile: How do you find living with your disorder?

I’m diagnosed bipolar with BPD. I also have some OCD issues. I used alcohol to screen me from the things I couldn’t cope with. It was a hiding place - if I drank enough I could even hide from myself. I’m alive because I can hear me breathing but not enough to think or do anything of any consequence.

Congratulations! That’s a huge milestone. I have BPD and was a sex, drug, and alcohol addict. Looking forward to watching your journey :slight_smile:
