I have always had a hard time self-regulating, as I have BPD. Well, I have a new therapist and she is focusing hard on me being able to handle crises in my own! At first it was really difficult. Is not like it isn’t now, but at least I get why she’s pushing me to be independent. Her rules are a scaffolding for building my own emotional legs!

It hasn’t been easy, but I’ve started to “capture” the moment in between the emotion and the reaction. Sometimes I dont do it because it seems to happen to fast, but I finally realized that I’m doing it more often than not and to me, that’s real progress. #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #mytherapistrocks #Emotionalregulation
