Welcome to my overview on Personality disorder. Ever wonder why a personal just keeps doing the same damaging things to destroy their lives and relationships.? In my series Red Flags in Relationships, I realized that many of the most difficult people are suffering from a Personality Disorder.. So I thought learning about these could give us insight into what is happening and a way to cope and or help a person with these problems.  

Key signs to look for that MAY indicate a personality disorder and very likely shows at the very least signs of emotional difficulties.

As long as you continue to react to the memory, keeping is "locked up" is an illusion.  Unlock PTSD.

In case you are wondering how the latest doctors were raised, I recommend these videos.  You have to laugh to keep from crying.

A little about what I have been up to and how to manage a complicated life. Nothing that has happened in the last few years has gone like I was told it would.  I am supposed to be a crumpled up mess. Taking more and more medications to have a "normal" life.  To be honest, I can't exactly grocery shop, but I am getting close.  It's a matter of endurance building at this point.  A balance between too much and massive spasms or too litlle and wasting away.  I'd rather have the spasms, partly because they are not so massive anymore.  I keep getting slowly better so I am going to open an office to help others.

Do you go to the doctor thinking you are prepared and leave and realize you forgot half of your concerns and the other half seem insufficently addressed?  Here are some tips to help you along.  

How strange.  I couldn't sleep in.  Even if I wanted to, I woke up stiff and my head hurt and my legs were in spasms.  The ONLY way to get through the day was to get out of bed and start moving.

Looking back, it felt as if every move I made was like going upstream on the lazy river. All day long, I would trudge through until at night I would collapse into bed and sleep without moving the entire night - no wonder I was stiff...

No kidding, I looked up the diagnosis and it said one in a million people get the condition and I thought I had to be nuts to actually believe that I actually had this problem but I knew I did.

Try as I might, in my life, when I was unhappy with the was things were going and having a little temper tantrum in my head, I would promise myself I was going to stay mad or sad FOREVER.  It never worked, I got over it. Usually the next day. But suddenly, I succumbed to a depression from  effectively nothing. I just was so tired, I didn't care to live and I was depressed for the first time in my life. It was a scary situation and I knew it was wrong.  Why wasn't the rest of the world so tired?   

So, there I was with a disabling diagnosis.  now what? What specialist has seen enough people like me to really deconstruct my problem and make things better?  Who really understands how I feel physically and what can be done?  The only doctor I knew was me.  I have great neurologists, they don't feel the spasms, They don't know if the medication is right and they don't know how to make the immune system stop this trainwreck.

They say that only a fool would be their own lawyer and I suppose that goes for doctors too, after all I should have gone to the ER with that headache and I didn't.  But now, I had to get serious. 

I had to find a cause and a plan.  there were multiple contributions to the cause and multiple plans to correct the problem and the effects.  

I had to accept this was how I would live the rest of my life.

Just like a person who manages to lose weight, I had to change my lifestyle and never go back.  Sounds much easier than it actually is.  Ask anyone who gained the weight back and then some.
