Borderline personality is being called a flirt when you have no idea how to make people like you without seducing them.

Borderline personality is being called a drama queen for having bigger than life emotions and not being able to restrain them.

Borderline personality is not recognizing a photograph of yourself a week after taking it.

Borderline personality is fully understanding you’re being irrational, clingy, or overbearing, and watching yourself fall further instead of fixing it.

Borderline personality is refusing every kind offer because it could possibly be insincere and you won’t let yourself fall for that again.

Borderline personality is being constantly cautious of what you say so you don’t come off as manipulative, and being a pushover when you don’t want to so no one will think of you in that way.

Borderline personality is not being able to love yourself unless someone else loves you, but never fully believing that they could love you.

Borderline personality is thinking of all the ways you could die, today, at this moment, on a loop every waking moment.

Borderline personality is hard. It’s hard to cope. It exhausts you. Treat people with BPD like normal human beings, please. We’re not monsters. We’re tired of our shit, too. Be patient, and i know constant need for reassurance gets annoying, but it’s sometimes so necessary.

do you ever see your old friends/people you knew from school through social networks or pictures and suddenly want to cry because everyone has friends, everyone has a great family, everyone has the capacity to do whatever they want and achieve their goals, but you’re just alone, with a messy mind and watching everything you want and every goal go away because you can’t do anything anymore. you’re just too sick. and you’re there, watching everyone move on, through a cellphone or computer screen, like you’re pausing your own life even if you don’t want to.

Have you ever looked back on something and realized holy shit that was because (disorder)? It’s reassuring but terrifying because you realize it’s been hurting you for so long.

me: is a needy piece of shit who needs constant reassurance and attention from friends

also me: is distant as hell, avoids all social interaction

Being a child who was abused from an early age is like starting a race but before you’re about to run someone shoots you in the leg and you’re still expected to do as well as all the other kids

so apparently the “bad vibes” I’ve been feeling are actually “severe psychological distress”

20% is better than 0%.

Brushing your teeth at least once every day is better than none at all.

A few hours of sleep is better than none.

A few minutes outside for fresh air is better than none.

Writing a few paragraphs of the essay today is better than procrastinating till later.

Doing something is better than nothing (of course there is exception for some cases).

Do things at a pace which makes you comfortable whilst allowing you to make progress.

You can do this!

hating yourself while also believing you're better than god himself is cluster b culture

[filthyprotozoan]

i wish someone had told me at 13 that depriving yourself of food and sleep is very much a form of self harm

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

you are not too much.

people do care.

you won’t be abandoned.

breathe. breathe. breathe.

it’s okay.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the “I never let my disability/pain/illness stop me” is an ableist and harmful narrative.

Sometimes chronic issues are debilitating and they do stop you.

And you shouldn’t be made to feel guilty about it. Period.

don’t have a spidey-sense but I do have anxiety and they’re basically the same thing
