Ramblings of a Mentally Itinerant Teen

Maybe it's the Pink Panther music, but i seem to have gotten out of my "funk" (best word i can think of). So im posting (a lot)

since everyone seems to agree i have borderline (personality disorder) i thought i might as well find out what it actually is. It's kinda sad, actually, because it doesnt have its own name really- its "borderline" between neurosis and phycosis.

phycosis: thought and perception are severely impaired. Persons experiencing a psychotic episode may experience hallucinations, hold delusional beliefs, demonstrate personality changes and exhibit disorganized thinking

neurosis: causes distress, but does not interfere with rational thought or an individual's ability to function in daily life

i'm still confused. but further on... "pervasive pattern of instability of interpersonal relationships, self-image, and affects, and marked impulsivity beginning by early adulthood" Criteria:

1. frantic efforts to avoid (possibly imagined) abandonment
2. unstable relationships
3. markedly unstable self-image
4. lack of control in at least two potentially damaging areas
5. sucidal behavior/thoughts, self-injury
6. mental (mood) instabilty
7. chronic feelings of emptiness
8. anger issues
9. paranoia or a loss of reality (why were these put together on Wikipedia?)

interesting. you CAN comment on this, but that's not what its for. its an infomercial, i suppose. aduno.

    But it's not an infomercial if you're not trying to sell something.
