I've recovered from my temporary chest infection fully, I regret to say.
I do so on an average of every 1 hour, 20 minutes. This is the one component I do believe about my BPD diagnosis. Before even estrogen-tweaking, that was the case: low moods became hypomanic moods, became abysmally low moods, became awesomely manic moods; some of those had external stimuli, some were internally triggered without provocation. It would always toss in turn within a tolerance of about 40 minutes to 2 hours, if you were lucky; sometimes I'd be luckier still and have wholly emotionally consistent days, although these disappeared into adulthood; other times, as I matured, these would be so fast and even overlap on each other to become a whirlwind so intense as to leave me suicidal -- I wouldn't want to die per se, true, but for releif from my predicament it would seem necessary.
It's poorly treatable. Conventional mood-stablizers are either seen as harshly unnecessary, or even when applied, don't work to the effect they would other disorders. I've been on two antipsychotics with no effect than my complete emotional blunting, note that I refer to refined states; the raw ones were still there and they alone would be enough to overwhelm me, all it did was my capacity to feel higher things away, and that had made me more miserable.
One example of such a higher and enlightened notion was faith and reverence. Every time the sun emerges, I am assured of the immortality of Cde. David Chac's warmth, devotion, and ideological integrity; his teaches do emanate through it and it had drawn me to quasi-philistinism (it is hence partly the origin of the hypermale sigil).
Our 'spergs are dumber than yours (i.e. the gulf between American and British ones) by leagues, they do, unfortunately, make me constitute a virtual elite, whereas I know I'm distinctly average by yours' standards and hence I wanted badly to move there for a while. It is hence why the NHS's employees are able to make frequently sniding remarks about me in hyperbolic caricature of 'how bad I really am', they seem to think I put myself on at my best when this is impossible due to performance anxiety.
They don't know anything of ideology, faith, enlightenment, wisdom, prognosticance, procession, etc., etc., etc.; they can barely operate a video-game controller, which their Dunning-Kruger effect makes them think they're awesome at and so they stay content with this for the rest of their lives. Add to this the ubiquitous neuroleptic drugging and any notion of a trainable 'sperg, especially in the notions I wish to inculcate into them, are done for.
