This flag isn't anti-recovery however it is aimed to be for those who are happy without feeling like they need to 'recover'. People who prefer alternative ways to cope with their DPD. All power to those who wanna recover and I hope it goes well. But plenty of people, me included, do not have interest in recovery. The recovery based flags are sunset themed so I made mine nighttime themed, as the night is calm and quiet. This term can be used by anyone who identifies with DPD including those who are transDPD or trisDPD.
Purple - Being connected to who you are and feeling as if your DPD is part of your body, heart, and soul, and not something you need to be scared of or something you need fixed for you to be whole. But also understanding the dark parts of it and being okay with the fact that you can't have the good without the bad.
Darkish blue - Feeling as if you can form stability within your life with your DPD being a part of it while also knowing you can trust yourself to succeed with things even if you don't wanna recover. Along with being able to put your most confident trust into someone to be your dependee.
Light blue - Feeling at peace with who you are and willingness to explain your needs to your dependee and safe people in your life.
Cream - Feeling comforted by who you are and how your DPD affects your life. Feeling immense amounts of self love even if how you live isn't conventional. Being willing and okay branching into different territories to cope with it, not limited to regular old relationships/friendships but also TPE based relationships and various 'strange' dynamics.
The hands - Showing the ability to be okay with reaching out for support in non conventional ways, even if its by having a specific person you can be reliant on. Being okay with stating your needs without feeling like your immature (unless feeling immature is a good thing for you) or supposed to be ashamed. Also not feeling like it's wrong to engage in behaviors that 'worsen' your DPD.
