BPD & All Its Glory

Mental health is important and doesn’t always come first. I created this page as a safe space to share my story and my journey through life. Life with BPD isn’t easy but it isn’t impossible. I want people who live with this or other mental illnesses to feel like they have a safe space to talk.

BPD and Disassociation

If you have BPD you understand what it feels like when the world around you begins to feel unreal. When you’re watching a movie you may get fixated on it to the point that you don’t pay attention to your surrounding. Or when you are driving and you begin to daydream, you become unaware of what is going on around you, which can be dangerous to yourselves or others. I recall back before I began my medication journey I would constantly find myself daydreaming about my grandmother who is no longer with me. It would be to the point where this daydream would just consume me and it would become hard for me to snap back to reality.

I have had to take a breather this week. I had to step away from social media because sometimes everything going on in the world can be overwhelming. For people with BPD it can be even more overwhelming. You have to put yourself first sometimes. It’s not selfish. It’s selfish if you never put yourself first.

BPD And All Of It’s Glory

I keep getting questions like “Why did you name your blog this bpd isn’t glamorous or cool”. While I am aware of this I am so tired of the stigma and so tired of people associating BPD with an unstable narcissistic person. Lets end the stigma and begin educating people.
