So i have realized many people reading this would probably like a short version of what bpd is...so will do my best to write it as simple and short and possible.
So basically we all, since we were young, think we are bad people that are unworthy of love or anything good. We are extremly sensitive and feel all emotions to the extreme. When something bad or stressful happens, we jump to a bad behavior....drinking, drugs, cutting, isolation, self medication, eating, not eating, pulling hair, shopping or spending money, suicidal thoughts or attempts..ect the list is long. We have no clue how to handle the pain and all the extreme emotions so we want to numb them immediatly cause it seems just too much to handle for us since we feel things a lot and i do mean A LOT stronger then most people and it becomes overwhelming and it is stronger then us to jump to these bad behaviors even know deep down somewhere we know they are bad for us and will not fix anything, it is a HUGE struggle to not do this, it seems to me only with therapy and a lot of practice can one overcome this and learn to jump to good coping skills, healthy ones and not let the emotions overwhelm us. There i hope this helps a little. I would really love it if someone non BPD would post something about how they see us...again thank you for reading me :o)
