Unfortunately, it's not entirely clear exactly why BPD and anxiety are so closely interlinked. But more than half of those that struggle with BPD may also experience panic attacks and other anxiety symptoms.
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a common condition that is characterized by a host of different challenges and symptoms. One experience that’s frequently associated with BPD is anxiety meaning people who have BPD are often diagnosed with an anxiety disorder as well.
Anxiety can control a person's life whilst also being the result of the way that one sees themself. In the case of BPD, both occur simultaneously and an important part of recovery is learning how to treat one’s anxiety.
i hate that it’s literally so hard to actually feel loved when you have bpd. i feel so unworthy of being loved that i end up doubting everything and it makes me want to drop everyone but then i get scared of being alone and end up suffering in silence.
i’m so tired of always feeling like i’m never anyone’s 1st choice. i constantly feel so worthless and unloveable and that’s no matter who i’m speaking with really…
