BPD Relationships: How to Stop Obsessing Over Someone
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can create intense emotional bonds that make it difficult to let go. A common question I hear is, "How do I stop obsessing over someone with BPD?"
BPD individuals often have a remarkable ability to tap into your deepest desires, creating a powerful connection that makes you feel "seen and heard." This bond can be intoxicating, especially if you've never truly felt understood before.
Many people struggle with obsessive thoughts about their BPD partners long after the relationship has ended. This obsession is fueled by the intense emotional connection and the fear of abandonment that BPD can evoke.
Signs You're Obsessed with a BPD Partner
Fear of Honesty: You avoid expressing your true feelings because you're afraid of being humiliated or punished.
Isolation: You've been cut off from friends and family, leaving you dependent on your partner.
Punishment for Independence: Any attempt to have a life outside of the BPD relationship is met with punishment.
Loss of Self: You've stopped expressing your opinions or preferences because it leads to conflict.
Support and Recovery
If you're struggling with obsessive thoughts about a BPD partner, it's crucial to seek support. Therapy or support groups familiar with BPD can provide the guidance you need to regain control of your life.
Moving Forward: How to Stop Obsessing
To stop obsessing over someone with BPD, you need to understand what they are triggering within you. Often, the obsession is rooted in unresolved issues or unmet emotional needs. By acknowledging and addressing these aspects with compassion, you can begin to heal and move forward.
