I find it disturbing that someone can send 300 text messages during the school day and this is not prevented by teachers.

Great post. So true.

What a misleading article.

I'd like to see the actual quotes. As all he actually says is that the only person he's currently playing with is Fergie.

The comments about GNR/Axl and the rest could be just spin from the author.

Without much else its hard to know. If he will only work with women now does that mean a girl is in store for VR?

Previously slash has been against girls in bands...beause someone always fucks the girl and someone else always doesnt like it.

I don't want to get into an argument about this, but I know a person with BPD and it's a very serious and sad ailment, and i've noticed in a few threads you've made throwaway remarks about it.

A number of borderlines also suffer from depression. I would disagree about the suciede attempts being for dramatic effect (although this is clearly true in some people who may or may not also have BPD), but many cases Borderlines will engage in self harm not for effect but because in their mind it is the only way to gain a release from the emotional conflicts in their mind. I can't really explain but it seems to be similar to how a person will masturbate to releive excess sexual tension. The BPD suffer I know goes to a lot of trouble to hide the evidence that they have have been self harming, it's like a dirty secret that they are ashamed of, yet unable to resist peforming next time the pressure is too much.

Anyway...to the OP...i've suffered from depression and anxiety at different times in my life, and I'd recomend visiting a psychologist and engaging in cognative thearpy. I'm not a fan of medication but each to their own. Once you can identify patterns in the way you are thinking, and responding to your own feelings, then it's possible to learn the skills to cope and survive and while things may still suck in their own way, you can eventually learn to feel back in control.
