These are bad photos to represent what I’m trying to express because of the lighting, but this is what people should see when they call me skinny. This is anorexia. When I used to be healthy I could lie down like a normal person. But that black part is my sports bra and below it are my ribs. I’m so skinny that my body is breaking down and I never eat. This isn’t pretty or beautiful or attractive. If left untreated this is a death sentence to me. I understand wanting to be skinny, wanting to be beautiful. I have that obsession that drives me to look this way. But it’s not beautiful, it’s unhealthy and terrifying. Sometimes I see people rave about how they want to look this way, but you don’t. You don’t want to be so skinny that you see bones in the mirror or that camera shot. Everyone in the world is beautiful just the way they are, but there’s no reason to be unhealthy like this or anything else. I need to learn to love myself, to stop counting my calorie intake or never eat. But for those who also suffer, we’re in it together.

guess what dumb fuck up slit her thighs again :))))
The fact that users on r/bpdlovedones will constantly drone on about how “people with BPD should not go there!” when it’s full of evil sentiments about a sensitive and stigmatized group of people prone to making themselves feel worse… we do see it
I want to add in, for anyone with BPD who seeks out this subreddit and feels gross/bad about themselves because of it: Those people do not know you. They may make sweeping generalizations about a personality disorder that you have but the bottom line is: They aren’t allowed to comment on how you, a specific person with BPD, are because they do not understand or know you as a human being. You are more than a stereotype or stigma says you are
