Here’s what helps Lil_L (who’s 41) and lives with BPD:

“Isolate or seek company depending on which characteristic is in full force. If I’m raging, I know I’m unreasonable and defensively ready to attack — so to avoid damaging relationships, I isolate. When I’m feeling abandoned or rejected — and am ready to engage with destructive behaviour —  I look for distraction.”

Here’s what helps AJMiller75 (who’s 45) and lives with anxiety:

Here’s what helps Laurie — who’s 54 — and lives with Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis:

“I have shortness of breath daily. What helps me most is walking believe it or not. Even though it is difficult some days to push myself, walking makes me feel like I am helping my lungs in some way. It also helps take my mind off my illness and sleep at night. I feel like I am getting several benefits from walking, especially when I don’t feel like getting out of bed. It makes me feel so much better about myself.”
