This made me cry. I've been wanting someone with a clinical understanding to voice what its like but in a non-clinical heartfelt and hopeful way... and you did it so, so well and so beautifully, thank you.
Currently working on some homework, as a fellow psych major with BPD this spoke to me. I am currently learning about psychopaths and how they have less responsive amygdala's, the emotion regulating part of the brain, often 18-20% smaller than the "normal" individual.. however, in my biopsychology class I focuses my work on the brain abnormalities of those who have BPD and we have more responsive amygdala's, often 20% larger than the "normal" individual. This shows we are more empathetic with others, more selfless. BPD is not bad, we have our own strengths and weaknesses as does any one else. Let's break the stigma!
Thank you for being a BPD person and speaking the truth about the problems in care about our struggle and about stigma, esp clinical stigma. I wish you well on your journey. I hope you continue to achieve and grow and learn and that you can educate others. You are amazing.

All I can say is.... this is beautiful. I feel understood. My experience at a hospital was so similar, it's uncanny.

I didn't trust myself to leave because I knew what would happen... When they found out I didn't have insurance I was moved to another facility for low income patients and mentally deranged inmates.

People don't like us and are scared of us because of the capacities we hold. Learn how to harness the strength of bpd as a man and do something special unique and creative, I know it's easier said than done.
I have a differential dx of borderline and yes there is a lot of talk among some circles ( including the practice I work at) where the providers are discussing the over dx of women and under dx of men and the symptom differences.
Wow. This is fantastic. As someone with bpd myself its relatable on many parts. Such as i've been to a&e for suicidal and ymurge to act in it was higher than normal but was told as I sought help couldn't be that bad so I left. Thanks coral
"an arbitrary number" is such a powerful way to talk about scales and quantitative inquiry - what are we saying about operationalizing a construct when we boil it down to a scale? why not explore the experience from a qualitative standpoint in conjunction with quantitative inquiry so that we can increase our efficiency in pursuing an accurate depiction of psychological experience? what are we avoiding?
Thank you for composing a song whose melody hummed comfort in my heart. Today’s emotional forecast was cold and desolate. Having swallowed the key a long time ago, my voice box was locked. Once again bottling up all the pain. Dripping into my thoughts with suggestions to kill myself. Your vulnerability shined as hope in my minds sky. Illuminating that I am worthy of expressing my truth. That I’m not bad or crazy. Most importantly, that I can heal. ❤️
I loved the time a crisis psych nurse greeted me with "You again"? Or the time I was in a suicide crisis and the hospital once again dismissed me and discharged me. I was in enough of a crisis that we asked if there were other options. I was given one where a major criteria was that you couldn't be in crisis. If needing to attempt to kill yourself isn't a crisis I don't know what is. 🤷♀️
Jeez, I'm shaken up from top to bottom, it's a very very real example, similar self doubt that, am I really suffering or just making it up. And after resolution of the clinical spectrum to minimum, the identity confusion is heightened to a maximum, and it is difficult to think more .....
But what about when your family member has every symptom of BPD and refuses to admit it and lies to practitioners to avoid diagnosis? My brother just died as a result of BPD fueled shame and addiction . I wish it were as simple as "don't stigmatize" but hurt people hurt people....so what is the way to deal with a loved one who is abusive and lies? How to actually help while not putting yourself in harms way?
Did you write the poem? It's beautiful! You're beautiful! Thank you so much for explaining everything I feel so eloquently! I may have to use that poem to explain to others what it's like to have BPD! Thank you!
Cinthia Gypsy Landau. I did write the poem :) you can find more of my poems at coralthepoet on Instagram :) thank you for the love, and it brings me so much joy and hope to hear you might use the poem to help explain the disorder to others, that was my intention with it :)

Thank you for composing a song whose melody hummed comfort in my heart. Today’s emotional forecast was cold and desolate. Having swallowed the key a long time ago, my voice box was locked. Once again bottling up all the pain. Dripping into my thoughts with suggestions to kill myself. Your vulnerability shined as hope in my minds sky. Illuminating that I am worthy of expressing my truth. That I’m not bad or crazy. Most importantly, that I can heal. ❤️
You are beautiful with words. I would love to hear more some time. I also have a page for survivors if this interests you. ♡
I loved the time a crisis psych nurse greeted me with "You again"?
Or the time I was in a suicide crisis and the hospital once again dismissed me and discharged me. I was in enough of a crisis that we asked if there were other options. I was given one where a major criteria was that you couldn't be in crisis. If needing to attempt to kill yourself isn't a crisis I don't know what is. 🤷♀️
this is my life, im crying
Jeez, I'm shaken up from top to bottom, it's a very very real example, similar self doubt that, am I really suffering or just making it up. And after resolution of the clinical spectrum to minimum, the identity confusion is heightened to a maximum, and it is difficult to think more .....
But what about when your family member has every symptom of BPD and refuses to admit it and lies to practitioners to avoid diagnosis? My brother just died as a result of BPD fueled shame and addiction . I wish it were as simple as "don't stigmatize" but hurt people hurt people....so what is the way to deal with a loved one who is abusive and lies? How to actually help while not putting yourself in harms way?
You are inspirational....I admire you.
My life story, thank you so much.
very very much touching and interesting it would be very much useful to see the script in order to made it available in other languages
I'll see what I can do! :)
Thank you so much, you wonderful human

My entire 40 years of life
It’s all the inner anger coming up from all the past abuse from our parents and those who never let us have a voice and people wonder why we are so mad 🤷♀️🙄come on.
Hi fellow BPD
I am a 35 year old father of 3. 1 has autism to my now wife. The other two, teen girls, we buried their mom 3 years ago. I was diagnosed in my teens. Everyday feels like an asteroid is coming. Everyday it feels like i summoned asteroids... i felt guilty when i had to have brain surgery. I scare people with outbursts... im terrified of turmoil.. i sometimes vent serious emotion on youtube comments
You are amazing!
