QUESTION:

I feel like I am going insane. I've tried many times to kill myself or self-mutilate. my arms are scarred and ugly. I feel ugly and broken yet hollow. I drink a lot at times to escape the craziness of my so-called life only to find I'm more screwed up than ever after a drinking binge. I've been hospitalized on numerous occasions for alcoholism, drug addiction, suicidal tendencies, "manic-depression", bpd. I've yet to experience any relief from this madness...I'm so inconsistent, I feel like I'm on a roller coaster that's totally out of control. I am scared of me. I have two wonderful kids and a loving husband but like everything else in my life I disconnect and detach from them whenever we get too close. I treat my husband like a dog and yet I adore him.

DR. HELLER'S ANSWER:

Fortunately there are effective answers available, and the information you're looking for is on this website.

While you may have bipolar (f.k.a. manic depression) you almost certainly have the BPD. The proper medication can make you feel dramatically better within 8 days. I encourage you to find out more.
