I really would like to talk about the comments I am sent to this website. They are almost entirely abusive and offensive. I wonder whether this is because there are people who feel they have suffered at the hands of BPD sufferers and insulting me makes them feel better or if they, themselves have mental health issues.

It is really tough when you are trying to educate and open yourself up honestly to be insulted constantly. These people do not know me from ‘adam’, so they are hitting out at someone else in their lives by lashing out at someone they have never met.
That, surely is not healthy!
