Me: can't do a certain pilates exercise
Me: ...starts throwing pilates ball up and down, in the air, trying to catch it instead.
Well, at least I can do bridges quite well lol. And about 75% or so of the 25 exercised I've learned...maybe even a bit more. Though, I won't lie, some of them hurt like a bitch.

Maybe if I lose weight then I could do it.
Some lyrics from a Christina Aguilera song:
In life there's going to be times
When you're feeling low
And in your mind insecurity
Seems to take control
We start to look outside ourselves
For acceptance and approval
We keep forgettin' that
The one thing we should know is
Don't be scared to fly alone
Find a path that is your own
Love will open every door
Its in your hands
The world is yours
Really seems to resonate with me right now.

My therapist: We're at a standstill, I'm not trained in DBT and you could really benefit from that the most right now. But you can always come back to see me if you need to.
What I hear: I'm rejecting you, I don't like you anymore, you're worthless and beyond help.
Yeah, both of those sides make sense to me. But the more negative side is overwhelming me and that's why I want to drink to forget it.

So I finally think I met someone i do actually like. The only, perhaps, issue, which isn't even really much of an issue, is that my level of physical attraction (to him) could be a bit higher...but at the same time, once the emotion is there, (which it basically is already, just not as strongly yet because we just met) the attraction should follow and also increase I would think. But I have to pursue this...I can't just let it slip through my fingers, when he treats me like a fucking queen, just because there is a minor hiccup, wwhich is very likely to get solved eventually.
Does anyone else get paranoid around people? I do around certain people because of the trauma that I have endured around these types of people. Also, I just tend to feel unsafe and uncomfortable around people or when I am out in society. I can feel like they are out to get me or want to hurt me or attack me. I do best when I am completely by myself, alone in my apartment.
That depends on your definition of paranoid. If you mean actual clinical paranoia (which you basically described), not often. But I have pretty high anxiety around people. Not necessarily fear I can always feel, but I have hypervigilance. Jumping at the slightest sounds, scanning the area for potential weapons and exits, and assessing people based on threat level, etc. But that is probably more linked to my CPTSD than BPD. It gets exhausting though.
