About Me  Pretty butterflies

My name is Terri. I am 38 years old, and am a stay-at-home mother of three. I have a daughter who is 17, another daughter 4, and a son 3. My husband is a firefighter and owns a lawn sprinkler company. We have been married for six years. I was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder and in 1999. I have had depression on and off for years. I have been hopitalized once for depression. It sure is nice to finally know why my life has been in on and off turmoil. It is also nice to know that I'm not alone in this. There are a lot of people who suffer from BPD.

A lot of times, people suffer for years before they know what's wrong with them. I know I did. My therapist says that I also have PTSD (Post Tramatic Stress Disorder). I don't remember my childhood before the age of twelve or so. What I do know about my childhood wasn't great, but I'm not going to dwell on that. I would like to remember my childhood. I've always said; How can I know where I'm going, if I don't know where I've been? I really believe that.

Anyway, this is a little info on myself. Thanks for being interested. :)
