When you're open about having mental illness... Then display signs of mental illness
So my boyfriend knows I have BPD and that I specifically struggle with aspects of hygiene (my hair and teeth in particular) but Ive been doing my steps and actually have brushed both every day for nearly two weeks. So we're getting ready to have dinner tonight with some friends and he is telling me everything I need to bring since there's some specific plans, he then adds on to make sure I actually brush my teeth before leaving... Suddenly the ODD is screaming to not and to get extra gross before leaving my house just to make him remember how bad I've been before... I know this isn't the rational course so I just needed to vent rq before I can actually go about my day, thanks for reading
I can’t just connect with people a normal amount lol
When I feel an episode coming on..
I should take a few days off the internet.. ^(It stops the shame-deletion.)
Drowning in plain sight
Living with BPD feels like drowning in the middle of the ocean.
You can see the shore, you can see the people laughing on the beach and living their lives. You know exactly where you want to be. But no matter how hard you kick or how frantically you paddle, you can't get there.
The waves (your emotions) keep crashing over your head, pushing you back or pulling you under. You're putting in 10 times more effort than the people on the beach, just to keep your head above water, while they don't even realise you're struggling right in front of them.
I want him back... No, I should move on. But I want him back.
Hoot hoot
16 months of sobriety down the drain
Feeling so unlovable lately 😭
I love when the chronic mental issues cause the chronic physical issues to flair up too :)
this one did numbers on tumblr so i thought some of you would also appreciate it lol
To everyone suffering from BPD
Copied from my comment under the same video I posted on Youtube:
If you’re suffering through bpd like I am, first of all I feel sorry for you, but second of all, you are more than just your fp. You don’t need to check if they responded, you don’t need to stress yourself out if they’re hanging out with other people, and just remember, your fp cares about you, unless they're a bum, and if that's the case, you don't need them! You are your own independent person. Bpd spirals are temporary anyway.
You got this, and keep staying strong. And if you ever spiral, repeat this in your head. "I am independent and I don't need to rely on my fp anymore."
Adorned (avoidant attachment and psych ward animation)
If this is love I don’t want to be loved.
Soo I lost my fp of three years
Oh man am I mentally unwell hahaha
