well there are several factors to consider:
what is your clean time?
---if you are newly clean this numb feeling is very common...your body is used to the highs and lows of addiction that emotional rollercoaster, co dependents experience this in relationships as well, effects your biochemistry and needs time to work itself out.
what type of therapy are you in?
---often people with BPD gain from group therapy and 1 on 1. It helps with personal growth and insight also helps determine where your at with your disorder and what is the "right" next step.
how are your scripts?
---have you felt a difference since on them? maybe they are not working for you and you should discuss this with your doctor.
what are you doing to help yourself?
---behavior modification is important to get adjusted to "real" life especially when a co morbid issue is present...all the more challenging...meetings, work, normal feel good about yourself activities....are you feeling motivated? are you depressed? ask yourself this everyday....a 10 step at the end of the night could help you review your daily status.
many people have a dual diagnostic thing going on so it's not impossible to feel alive again....time is a big factor but so are all the others i mentioned. this is just some general info. maybe it'll help. i don't know the specifics of what's going on or your history to really help you out individually but your dr. does....use your resources...there def. is help out there. i'll be here if you need any feedback but i'm not a professional and i could only give you limited advice. i hope this helped. |
