I am completely stuck. I have borderline personality disorder among many other mental disorders which leaves me majorly over sensitive with extreme trust issues and a poor self-image. My boyfriend knows this and tries to help me as much as possible with it but unfortunately his idea of playfully flirting with me is to joke about other girls and things along that line which are major triggers to my disorder. Although I can logically process the comments and know he's just flirting with me my emotions take control and I get extremely upset. I have no way of controlling this except to continue with my therapy and with intense treatment I will eventually be able to control my own emotions. My boyfriend and I have discussed this many times and he feels awful and has tried to stop but he still does it some. I was wondering if anyone else has this specific problem and what you have done about it outside of therapy that has helped reduce the extreme emotions provoked? This is really becoming an issue in an otherwise very stong supportive relationship. (link)

Maybe you should go to a therapist and talk to them about it im sure a therapist will help you or if that doesnt help maybe you and your bf should just sit down once in a while and just talk to him about your feelings im sure if you do this enough you will be fine if not maybe ask a doctor what could help you. Good Luck :D

If you read the question it specifically states I'm in therapy already and I have already talked to him about it quite a few times. Thanks anyway.
