thank you to everyone who responded. i think i am BPD, although my therapist doesn't like to use that label and has yet to say I am. when i speak of abandonment depression, i mean i feel empty and sad and depressed, sometimes suicidal when i am alone. it is hard for me to leave my therapist's office, though he is very understanding. i need him so much more than i can have him and it sucks. so i self-medicate with alcohol, xanax, whatever. i just don't think i will ever get well. and yes, i, too, feel depressed most of the time. it is hard to work full-time in such a demanding job and cope with therapy and all that goes with it. that's all. thanks again everyone and please feel free to expand on this thread. it helps to know i'm not alone, even thought it feels that way most waking moments.
