I have borderline personality disorder also. I can totally relate to the black/white symptom. I try to not respond to anything until I can work out in my head that there are more options than a solid dividing line.
My big problem is with dividing people into 2 groups. I like or do not like, no in between.
It takes a lot self-inspection and discipline. I have to analyze everything and remind myself that most people do not see things the same way.
I also take into account how others are responding and try to factor that in.

As far as the emptiness, you need to find and remember that you are valued.

In 2012 I have experienced so many medical issues, family deaths, and marital spats more than normal, my mother having a stroke and losing my adapted mother in 2011.  I have not been able to cope and that is not my personality, everyone sees me as the strong one and the person they can always call on.  But I have to now take everyday for day and push myself to get out of bed and see the outside.  Find at least one person that can support you spiritual :dontknow: and physically; and this is just the beginning.  I have 2 different medication that I am now taking to help me with my issues but, in my opinion it still is not working, so I have to keep praying and having faith to get through the pain and sadness.

Remember there will always be good days, and bad days!!!

I oversee a mental health clinic in which many clients w/ BPD are treated.  We use a treatment approach called Dialectical Behavioral Treatment.  It comes out of the University of Washington and has been very effective in helping BPD clients at better managing their emotional dysregulation.  If you have BPD or know someone who does, I'd encourage you to investigate that treatment model.  I would also recommend a really good, easy to read book on BPD entitled "I Hate You, Don't Leave Me."

Excuse me but you are the one with the problem. I would never hate someone for something that they can't freaking control.  >:(

They CAN control it. They are too weak minded to do so. They all too often fall upon the crutch that is their fake disease. They do awful things to people and then claim it isn't their fault.  YOU did those things to the people around you, not some alter-ego. Sure, your default is to be selfish and jealous and create fake drama. But once you know this about yourself and continue to do it, you become a willing party in the disaster.

My point is that having a "disease" is not a hall pass to wreck lives and do bad things. The responsibility of your actions falls on you.
I am a recovering drug addict. (11 years)  I could have blamed everything I did wrong on a "disease" I could have said my brain was wired differently and no one understands me.  OR... OR I could stop doing drugs and quit being an A-hole. BPD is a problem, yes. But once a person is aware of it it all too often becomes an excuse.

i learned it in biology that personality disorder is developed on the division of cells inside the embryo, how the chromosomes are distributed and one single chromosome can affect ur personality like having a syndrome and disorder even having a mind of a serial killer begins from it. gee science really..

So then they are allowed to be terrible humans? NO! They have to try harder to be decent.
BPD is usually attributed to abandonment, not cell division that you just made up by the way.
