I have a Patreon where I share advice, insights, research and more on navigating life with Borderline Personality Disorder every month. It includes tips for dealing with various aspects of BPD, as well as supporting someone with BPD!

It costs only the cost of a cup of coffee per month, and every contribution means quite a lot to me. ☕

It’s also linked to a Discord server to connect with other BPD-ers and I host virtual support groups for Patrons as well! ❤️

You can join here.

BPD POST #21

The scary uncontrollable rage that can ruin your life within seconds and then you’re forced to pick up the pieces afterwards.

BPD POST #20

that moment when you stop reading a book because you’re getting too emotionally attached to the characters and you won’t be able to handle it when the book ends

BPD POST #19

When you took all the precautions to make sure a FP would never leave, but they do.

BPD POST #18

you want to have a close friend, a #fp, but then you instantly push them away because you’re scared they’ll hurt and/or leave you.

BPD POST #17

emotional instability.

Tbpdfw :

you beg someone to get back with you because the only thing worse then being with them is without them.

How many bad OKC opening messages are you allowed to send before you’re forced to die alone?

My COO thought I was Fluttershy but I was like “Nah. I’m Rainbow Dash. I’m really gay and Rainbow Dash is like one big rainbow.”

Someone please stop me from ever speaking again.

People are always like, “you’ll regret not spending time with [insert old relative’s name here] once they’re gone. Literally no. Fuck that. I called my 83-year-old grandmother the other day and she defended reconnecting with the cousins (her other grandchildren) who abused my sisters and me by telling me that they "aren’t very bright” and that she needs car rides from them. That was after she insisted that my childhood was perfect and that she was basically a martyr. I’m sorry, but I can’t love this person or most of my other extended “family.” I tried.

Do you want the honest truth about looking and feeling so different in the workplace? Yes, it is difficult to have multiple marginalized identities AND also dress differently/have visible tattoos. There will always be people who will hate me before they get to know me. There will always be whispers. There will always be stares. But you know what? Being open about who I am has literally saved my life, again and again. I have seen too much and have fought too hard to let ignorance and fear stop me from being a full, participating person in this society. I am aware that I was also born into groups with privilege, and I will continue to use those privileges to fight for others. My mission is to help in some small way to tear down this broken system and create a better world - for you, for me, for all of us.

I am awkward and I have no filter and I don’t know why women speak to me but here we are

I sent that to someone on OKC. I’m officially the actual worst at this.

Me, explaining why I don’t connect with people

I’m not a crazy flake, I just play one in real life.

Love me.
