Hi Deneb

> It has been a rough day for me and I think I've been suppressing my emotions.

You might be, I guess, but what makes you think so? You certainly don't seem to be suppressing your emotions as you write your posts here at this moment in time.

I'm sorry that my post here is probably going to be repetitive of some of the other posts. I just don't have the time to read them all.

> I am upset. I guess I am still emotionally unstable. I feel hopeless. I have improved a lot, but it is not enough. I'm not sure I will ever be well enough. Why try then? For the first time in months I feel like giving up again.

Okay, let's say you are emotionally unstable during the course of a single day. I would say that this is indicative of something that you would want to address through a professional - which I know you are. What I would find helpful in understanding you is what your pdoc has offered as a diagnosis. If it so happens to be borderline personality disordor (BPD), I would like to at some point describe to you a success story.

In the meantime, try to focus on your self-worth. You have much self-worth to ponder. I know the people here could write many, many things about you that they respect, admire, and like. I like you, and I barely know you. So just remember, no matter how unstable your emotional state may be, your worth as a fellow human being remains as steady as can be.
