okay I'm finally making a post here abt this so Maybe I stop dwelling on it. but.
people with bpd aren't inherently abusive.
we can display traits that are tiring, hard to deal with, and just plain harmful, sure. but abuse is intentional--symptoms are not.
im tired of people with bpd being talked about like they're intentionally manipulative, or someone to avoid.
so! to everyone Ever:
do not call people with bpd abusers for their symptoms.
do not even allude to it.
do not even claim that a person with bpd reminds you of past abuse because they slipped up. because maybe that's true, but you're on thin fucking ice.
people with bpd can do bad things due to their symptoms, but 9 times out of 10 harm isn't our intention.
so stop acting like it is.
you can genuinely harm people by saying this shit, believe it or not! and it isn't fucking ok.
ok bye
