Hi,
I just read your post and wanted to say that I'm sorry for everything you have been going through lately. It sounds like you have been through many challenging times in your life so far. I always find it interesting how some people seem to breeze through life very smoothly with no hardship, while others struggle in every aspect of life. Perhaps this is because some people are better at hiding the "skeletons in the closet", so to speak? Or maybe it is just luck... I don't know.
Anyhow, i think that you are a strong person to have made it through everything you have experienced. And i think that it is important for you to stay positive and look to the future. Focus on your self growth and development(physical, mental and social). Especially because you say that your BPD diagnosis is new. I assume that it explains some of the reasoning behind your past choices/feelings/actions, which is a good thing to understand. Keep trying new meds and find what works the best for you, because everyone is different. Be active, exercise, eat right and treat your body as a precious gift. Try joining a class or a group, like yoga or pilates or anything that you enjoy. Make sure you are getting enough rest and sleep too.
Also, I think its important to create new relationships with people. I mean friends who can offer you support and strength when you need it. Joining new groups can help with this. Humans are social creatures, and we all need contact with others. You are NOT alone in this. Remember that you can always come here to write and someone will respond.
I also wanted to say that you can lean on the Lord when you need strength. That is a beautiful thing, he is ALWAYS there with you. Remember that he is the one in control, and he knows your limits and what you are capable of. Use your relationship with Him to support you through the rough times.
Best Wishes

,
Sam
