afraid of being aloneReply to this Comment
This is the first time I have ever hear of DPD, but after reading about the condition I am afraid that it sounds too much like myself. Every relationship that I have been in since I was 18 has been doomed by my
dependancy on another person. I find myself not liking myself once in a relationship with someone. I lose all sense of independance and self worth, and dangerously revolve my life around the routine of another person to the point where my social life is eradicated and my only and primary focus is a doomed relationship.I find myself canceling out on social invitations just to accomodate and be there for this one person.
The strange thing is that I resent this dependancy, I secretly want and admire people who are independant and not in need of another person for a sense of inner completion.
Sometimes I fear that the idea of being rejected and alone is overwheliming. I would just like to be happy with myself and by myself.

Half Way Houses? Site helpfulReply to this Comment
We've just had a diagnosis in my family of six that has left us reeling, and this page and related articles has been very helpful. I've read a number of books and have a doctorate in human behavior (non-pathological) and it's good to know there are sources of good data out there beside the books. We're trying now to find a "half-way" house.. a place where a 27 year old child can live, with someone 24/7 (in shifts) in loose supervision, close enough to walk to town/city events, and go out but with some guidance about meds and opportunities for group discussion and self discovery. Trying to deal with this new diagnosis in the home is already after one month taking a big toll. And then the guilt of even trying to find some place like this. Are they out there?

I feel the same as Tina, I just read the description. I match it almost completly, not the abusive part, but I totally depend on my boyfriend I almost have him make my decisions for me because I feel I can't or I have him tell me what to do, so I know I make him happy. The sad part is, that we have 2 wonderful boys and I hope it doesnt rub off onto them. I do love my boyfriend tremendously, but Its me that needs some help and learn to love myself, live on my own and make my own decisions....

Severe ImmaturityReply to this Comment
I was diagnosed with severe immaturity and don't really understand what this really is. How does a doctor define severe immaturity and how can they test for it?
