My heart breaks for this girl. I went to school with her and she was always just so kind to me. One of the few who didn’t bully me. I’m just in tears. 😭
Reach out to her. We only have one life and wouldn’t you feel awesome helping her even if it’s just for mental support
Eye roll
Maybe you can reach out and help her.
Hey skye, it's (stefen) from high school. Thank you for sharing your story. We wish you the best on your journey. You're still are the same smart, nice person I remember :)
As a fellow borderline I understand how it’s so easy to start crying and then immediately stop and start again. I cry over anything and everything, even if it’s the most minor inconvenience
I have CPTSD and I go through the same. Just today while in the middle or working I just cried. Thankfully no one was around. It just comes out of no where sometimes and then back you go at life again, being the strongest you can be.
There are tons of emotional people that cry for things that happen to them. I cry an awful lot the week of my period. If someone tried to tell me I have and diagnosis because "I cry" or have huge empathy, I would laugh at them. Sometimes having high expectations and caring about things cause this. I don't think it's an actual problem.
This is an environment (Mark's studio) where letting your emotions out is acceptable.
I cry when I watch rescue dogs videos
I cry when things make me cry

I have BPD. I struggle with addiction and my childhood had trauma. I just want to hug this woman. We’re not bad people. We’re just trying to survive each and every day. Our minds torture us every second of the day. I hope she finds some light ❤
🙏
I'm sorry for you ,I am, but people with BPD also torture everyone else they come across
He must be terrible to live with that illness, but you could get out deep therapy, not medicine, but therapy, intensive talk psychotherapy is the only way to curate. It's a personality disorder, not an illness. It's up there with psychopathy and narcissism ....and BPD will ruin the people that don't even have it
If you really want help are you to proud to ask Jesus, He will help you and there is a God and a devil..you are living for satan now, try God for once.
@@joanjarrette8691 ??? Bye
Yup. And she’s right. Nobody gets it. “Just calm down” “just focus on what ya got” and all the other cliche answers for mental health issues. And those things don’t even register like they do not even make sense cause there is zero coping. woman
This woman's condition is why I sent my daughter a plane ticket from AZ to South Carolina so I can take care of her and give her the support she needs. My daughter was found passed out on the street and taken to a hospital then to a treatment center. She was released a few days ago, she's feeling good but there's a lot of healing ahead of her...
Skye you deserve more, you are beautiful and intelligent. I wish you the best🙏🏾
You’re a great mother, a rarity in this world ❤ thank you
Skye if you happen to come across this comment please please please do not have a baby in your current condition. I know it may feel like having a baby may help or be the answer but it will only drive you deeper into depression. Not to mention the incredible amount to suffering your unresolved mental health issues would bring upon your child. You would likely lead them down the path of addiction you are on now. You can not care for a child until you can care for yourself in every sense of the word. This isn’t meant as an insult to you it’s just the plain truth, no child deserves to have an addict with serious mental health issues as a mother.
100%!!! It would be deliberately bringing an innocent child into misery, suffering & danger. It would be cruel.
So for you helping someone means killing them? She struggles now, she will struggle with the baby, but at least they both have a new chance at life. You went trough hard ships in this life, you would rather had your mother abort you so you wouldn't suffer? Stop giving advices you won't give yourself. I'm not talking about you aborting your kids, I'm talking about the abortion being done to you. If I would had asked you before you were born if you would rather be killed by your mother in the most horrible way or go trough hardships in life I don't think your answer would had been the first option. Please don't give advices anymore, your not in a good state of mind for giving advices and continuing to believe you are able to give advices will only do more harm to you, to others and to innocent children.
@@summerrain888 are you kidding? YES I would rather have been aborted as a fetus than be born into a life that this baby will be born into. An egg is not a chicken, a tadpole is not a frog, a fetus is not a baby.
@@summerrain888you totally missed what she was saying!!! 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
@@tealahiggins damn you must have had a bunch of abortions..before you cut your hair and became unfuck@ble 😂
The fact that she started out with: “Is it bad that I cry here?” speaks volume. If you get these peoples stories or not it speaks volume!
Seemed like a put on to me and there were no real tears. Not to sound callous but BPD people are very manipulative and can ruin peoples lives without a second thought. They will fight to protect their victim status no matter what. I did 30 years front line work in a psychiatric facility so I know a little.
I’m speaking of borderline personality not bipolar disorder
@@sirbaronvoncount4147 My mother had BPD, you are a million percent right. Why do you think I call it Bad Person Disorder? That is the only personality disorder that will make me not speak to you. Narcissists are easy to handle. A screaming brat throwing DVDs at you and threatening to kill herself monthly isn't.
@@sirbaronvoncount4147 there are different kinds of BPD and not all of them are harmful to others around them. You act like an authority but are only hurting others with your disinfo.
@@marierejoiceinjesus3846 Good comment. People with bpd are more likely to be abused than to abuse others. Usually a bit codependent, too. The other person doesn't know shit and can't see past their own judgment.
‘I like who I am sober’. I hope Skye can rediscover herself sober. I see a lot of grief, as a Dad I would be so broken hearted if my daughter was alone and afraid. Call your adopted Dad Skye and start there. You mentioned you wished you spent more time with your parents. It’s not to late and it’s sounds like between your brother and your adopted Dad you could have some real love and support. All the best to you moving forward, you deserve it Skye!
Yes!!! I really hope she reaches out to her adopted dad and brother. They could really help her but she has to WANT it and work really hard at staying sober. She could have a beautiful life and the babies she wants once she gets her health and stability under control
I have BPD, depression, and a mild mood disorder. The best thing for me was going into a program specifically for BPD and medication. It definitely helps. I live a productive life and am clean. You can do it!
DBT ?
@lauren D that's brilliant to hear atleast you know where this pour girl is coming from and what she's going through I think you are strong for going through all this and fighting your problems 😊💯
In my experience BPD people are often some of the sweetest people they just have trouble regulating emotions and impulses. I wish all people with BPD would take your advice because they are worth it.
@@24tommyst I feel the same at least some of us have hearts 👊💯
I also have it and im currently unmedicated because psych always want to prescribe junk.Benzos are like a miracle drug for me but its so regrettably very hard to get prescribed.
This young lady reminds me in many ways of my daughter who also suffered from BPD. She lost her struggle with addiction and homelessness due to an overdose on March 23rd at age 45 after 20+ years of drug addiction and 10 years of homelessness. While my daughter preferred opiates or meth, and alcohol in a pinch, she would do any substance to get high, including canned air and cough syrup. She, too, could never really explain how she felt at any given time but always seemed to be a little bit sad. Nor could she explain why she consistently made one bad decision after the other even tho she was acutely aware of right and wrong. She carried a lot of guilt. As a younger person she was so talented in many areas, very outgoing with a wicked sense of humor and had a genius IQ. She was a coloratura soprano. Such a waste of a valuable person. She once told me that she loved drugs more than anything else in the world, including own her kids, whom she was unable to raise herself. It was hard to hear but I appreciated her honesty. She also said that she did not want to live if she could not have drugs or alcohol. I am grateful to have heard from Skye today. I wish her and her dad all the best. I mostly wish I had the answer.
I'm sorry for your loss.
@@josephpaine9195 Thank you.
God Bless you! Much love from EAST TENNESSEE ❤️❤️🙏❤️💕
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope she's at peace. And I hope you and your family heal 💕
I'm so sorry. Mental illness is such a monster. It's so hard on the individual and everyone who loves them. I wish we had more answers so badly. Sending love 💜
My heart breaks for Skye. Such a sweet spirit.
Speaking from someone who’s mom had her so she could have someone to love her please don’t have a baby till you’re more stable. The love between me and my mom is very much conditional because of that reason. Ppl should not have babies to save themselves, it’s really not fair. I’m not having kids until i know I’m emotionally available and don’t have to rely on a baby for emotional validation
If you expect that your child is going to be your best friend, you will find- more often than not- that they will be your worst enemy. It is not your child’s responsibility to make you feel less alone. It is not your child’s responsibility to entertain you or quell the existential boredom.
I love my child beyond comprehension and while we are friends, there is a power dynamic that supersedes friendship.
Ideally, that dynamic will change and grow as he progresses towards adulthood.
Anyone who can’t comprehend this should reconsider having children.
Her having a child would be the WORSE mistake of her life. A DISASTER.
Watching someone you love die from a horrible disease like MS is traumatic and adding already existing mental health issues like BPD is adding fuel to the fire. Skye I hope you can get the help you need to overcome this because you can. You are worthy and deserve better. Best wishes to you ❤️
❤❤❤
She basically admitted to abusing her mother with MS though when she said she was "rude" to her. People with Bad Person Disorder downplay their behavior all the time. My mother was exactly the same way. This woman sets off my piece of shit alarm if I'm honest. She's doing her best to look innocent here and downplay the bullshit she does. If she's admitting to stealing, being "rude", and admitted she is an emotional vampire with that little "I want a baby so it'll be my best friend" line. My gut tells me this woman is getting exactly what she deserves.
Possibly. You’re entitled to your opinion as am I. Sorry about whatever experience you had with your mother. She also said she felt really bad for her and being a caretaker is extremely stressful and difficult. I do know that from experience. She may be lying and that’s on her. If it’s because of the mental illness I hope she gets help instead of resorting to self medicating.
@@Bonesawisready926 Splitting/dissociation is very common with bpd. No one deserves to sleep on the street when treatments are available, feeding criminality with homelessness isn't the best solution for our towns & cities. Simple accomodations, even barraks style with rules fairly enforced is better than feuling street crime.
@@Sleepparalysisdemon2
Good luck on your journey. My mom had MS.
Not to argue or make you feel worse but MS does cause paralysis: loss or impairment of the ability to move a body part. Google MS and Paralysis.
My mom couldn’t move her arms or legs for the last 20 years of her life.
I understand how she’s so emotional with bpd. taking meds helped with the emotional part for me. Thank you for interviewing more people with bpd.
i bet you're still taking sausages like a hotdog bun tho
@@web3wizard381 wtf? frickin weirdo.
@@web3wizard381 children don’t have a place here, maybe watch coco melon or something you have an easier time understanding. ☺️
My heart goes out to her. I also have BPD & I'm almost 40 years old. I don't do drugs or drink, but I definitely have other battles I deal with. There is help & hope. Much love to all from Florida.💗🦋

She is very aware of what’s going on. I hope that she gets the help she needs. You’ve got this ❤❤❤
Having been diagnosed with severe depression and also being an alcoholic, my heart goes out to Sky ❤️
Wow. Me too. Hope ur ok!
I understand this drive on
I love how people with BPD, such as myself, are very self-aware ❤
She is so sweet and really wears her heart on her sleeve. I hope she can get help & shelter 🥺.
very excellent point she made about not being able to discuss unaliving with therapists
Skye, you have so much life ahead of you.
If you wanted to go back to Iowa, near your best friend & Dad, there's an excellent shelter in Iowa City called Shelter House. They'll help you with anything you need like a safe place to sleep, food, drug counseling, job help, prescriptions, etc. Good luck to you. I hope we have a positive update soon.
Dialectal behaviour therapy. As someone who used to have BDP - this type of therapy is a game changer. There is light at the end of the tunnel - but you have to work for it.
I really feel like this young women can be helped. She doesn’t seem too far gone. For some reason I feel like this one could be “saved”.
She has Bad Person Disorder, she was too far gone at birth.
@@Bonesawisready926 My husband was diagnosed as BPD and people are so much more than their diagnosis!! mental illnesses are not cookie-cutters. We need to be breaking down stigmas like this against mental illness and addiction. Although some traits of personality disorders can be toxic, they are many times beautiful, creative, intuitive, intelligent, compassionate people that just feel extremes of emotion almost all the time which makes many of them extremely empathetic. It is a very hard thing to live with but it can be worked around and with a lot of self-reflection, therapy and possibly medication people with BPD can and do live meaningful and productive lives. A person with BPD can learn to understand themselves and take steps to get better. My husband struggles sometimes with severe depressive episodes but he is also the most empathetic, golden-hearted man I have ever met who only has good in his heart. He just has a hard time managing emotions. You would too if you felt everything 20 times more intensely as everyone else. Please try to be less judgmental and mindful of stigmatizing statements in the future. I'm sorry if you have had a bad experience with someone who suffers from BPD and thats why you feel the need to lash out at Skye but its really not right and she did nothing to deserve that. BPD is a complex mental illness and Skye deserves compassion. Skye is so brave to get on camera and tell her story although it made her uncomfortable to do so. I hope she gets her life on track. I see a lot of good in her. Skye is just hurting but seems to be a lovely human being. My first impression of her is much better than my first impression of you. I know everything I need to know about you from that one awful comment. YOU seem like the one with "Bad Person Disorder." Get help.
With the right treatment , people with BPD have the best prognosis out of any personality disorder 😊😊❤❤
@@Bonesawisready926one of the most ignorant comments I’ve ever seen. People with BPD often heal and many go on to do great things with their life and contribute to society.
Skye, you're still young! Reach out to get the help you so desperately need! And STOP huffing those dusters, you're just killing yourself slowly! PLEASE know that there are people out here that do care about you! Sending you lots of prayers and hugs! 🤗🙏🏻🤗🙏🏻🤗🙏🏻
Dear Skye, thank you for being courageous in this interview and letting us into your life. And thanks to Mark for doing more "BPD" videos. I appreciate both of you, as I, too, have BPD, am in recovery and find other ppl's testimonials very soothing and inspiring. Best Wishes to you Skye, with love ❤️ from Toronto, CANADA 🇨🇦 😊
Oh, Skye, I wish I could give you a great big hug. You've been through so much, so many things no one should have to live through, and I know exactly the dark cycles you've experienced. I hope you find a way out, and please know that you're not fighting alone and we all believe in you
Skye I’m a recovering alcoholic with anxiety disorder, and I cry all the time too.
I want you to know that you matter to this world. I love you Skye. You’ve got a beautiful name, if nothing more you can start there, and tell yourself every minute that you deserve all the Love and Light this world can offer.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🌟🌟🌟🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🌟🌟🌟
She is wonderful. I really hope she makes it.
I hope this young lady finds the support group that clicks and helps her end this cycle of self destruction. Skye, you describe a great family, PLEASE understand the VALUE in that and turn to that. You mentioned your mom, focus on yourself and making her proud. I have a niece that was on your path but with her strength and the love and support of her family she is now 12 years clean. I KNOW YOU CAN MAKE YOUR LIFE SO MUCH BETTER.
She really just needs the right kind of help. Bless your heart, Sky, you can still have the life you want, if you can get the correct long term support. I am rooting for you.
My husband is an addict and has BPD and it's such a hard thing to watch and deal with. We are learning to life with this disease everyday.
The best thing you could ever do for him is just always letting him know you got his back and that you love him. I would give anything to have that, and I think a lot of us who suffer with mental illness feel the same.
@Daisygirl1217 I'm doing my very best to always make him feel safe and we love him. We've been together 20 years. Since we were 16. The addiction has been here the whole time but the BPD is a new diagnosis we are growing through.
@@daisygirl1217 that is a tricky advice because people with bpd definitely need boundaries and professional help, their partners must take care of themselves before they devote their resources to the other person. It mustn't be a patient-caregiver relationship, the support should be mutual as in any romantic relationship.
My heart really is sad for her. I didn’t take the road she did, but felt lost after my mom and dad died. It’s a surreal feeling being in this world without your parents😔I pray she finds her way.
I have BPD and I have gone through a lot but was able to push through and heal a lot of my issues(non medicated). When I hear her talk I can tell she’s smart and can get through it. Before I went to therapy, I started by listening to podcasts about childhood trauma and BPD. Sometimes it was callers calling in with issues and hearing their issues helped me work through mine. Skye if you can do that, start there and find a shelter. Get yourself on a list for free therapy but in the meantime, start with podcasts that can help you. You can get through this. I never thought I would get through mine. I’m happily married with a child. You can do this.
Medication doesn’t typically help BPD. You need to work through your childhood issues and trauma. That’s the only way to get control of it.
CBT & DPT are generally more effective than medications. Except, there are often have co-morbid diagnoses that can be treated with medication
Share the podcasts 🙌
I can relate to you Skye so much, I have BPD and such similar experiences, even down to the biological dad, addiction, experiences with people, I go through functioning periods too but when I fall I spiral. I hope you find closure, you’re not alone. Sending my love out to you x
Have you tried dialectical behavioral therapy? I found that it helped once you can identify your triggers and learn not to listen to the worst interpretation your reflexive mind tells you about whatever situation you are in.
"A woman with black eyes is like the state bird around here" Sad Times!
Oh my gosh, I just heard Mark say it seconds after I saw the comment. So sad.
That state needs a new government.
Skye, lean on your support system. You’re so lucky to have a father who wants the best for you. I hope you one day also want the best for yourself ❤ you got this
"is it bad if I cry here"
Mark: "no, everyone cries here".
That is better than any therapy this woman has received. Never demonize or epitomize emotional outburst, they exist and shouldn't be attached to a philosophy of good vs. bad.
May peace follow you Mark, and may peace find you Skye
I’m only about 3 minutes in, but my sincerest condolences go out to you. You gave your mom the best gift you could by taking care of her. And I would fall into drug after that situation too. I hope things turn around
I also have borderline personality disorder and have struggled with addiction. I've been sober for almost 2 years and now I work with people with mental issues. I love my job and I think that helps me to love my life. If I can do it anyone can.
💜
Damn she's so young 😢I pray you find peace and a direction that takes you to a positive place
The red flag here is the combination of being diagnosed with BPD at age 7 (SEVEN!!) as well as the frequency she states that she was "adopted by someone so great" ... I'm so sad for her and the neglect she must have undergone as an infant and young child that led her to the attachment issues she states that she's always struggled with. It wouldn't surprise me if she actually grew up acting/behaving/masking constantly that "everything is fine" in order to keep her mom and step father from going off. Those with BPD frequently idealize and romanticize relationships with people, and it feels to me that's what she's doing with the idealization of her childhood ...
I just want to reach out and hug you! Please get out of that terrible area and fight for the sobriety you deserve. I guarantee your Mom is pushing from above. I can tell you are a survivor.
She definitely is.
@@dramatriangle I just pray she finds her way out before the cesspool consumes her. Thank God for Mark!
Dear Jesus help skye . I’m asking on her behalf. Please guide her in the way she’s destined to go that will help her.
She seems self aware, intelligent but defeated. If she just was able to get some specialized assistance she could be on her way to a life she could appreciate.
I just want to reach out and give her a hug. I hope things get better for you soon. Looking forward to an update . Wishing you the very best! ⚘
Her: Is it bad that I cry
Him: No everyone cry’s here
Love to you. I’m struggling with my own sobriety and trauma from my childhood.
Keep fighting 💪 💖
I just want to hug her 😢❤🙏
Salute!🫡 from East Flatbush
So do I.
This could be either of my daughters in the future. My ex husband is an alcoholic who isn't in our lives and I have M.S. My girls are still young pre teens but I know they struggle. Im 37 and still in fair health. I also have B.P.D and worry that my girls could end up similar. I'll do all I possibly can to try to help them not ever suffer like this poor soul.
I believe everything will work out for you and your children. Reason I say that is because you're aware. Awareness is vital. Good luck!💜🙏
@@wesleyalan9179 whoa I knew someone with your name. He was purposely killed/shot by the police over 40 times. Definition of Over Kill. Sorry to bother Wes just tripped out on your name. Stay up G 👊💯
@bigpesa6166 wow what a thing to share about to someone with the same name a bit harsh wouldn't 😳 you say good luck to you buddy I'm glad I don't have a name that would remind you of somebody you use to know that got killed in such a horrible way
@@jen-ms4xo well it's the truth. Much respect to Wesley Alan still alive 👊💯
I feel the same exact way, I have MS n I'm a recovering addict w/ BPD. My 2 kid's father has been absent n he's still in active addiction. I pray for peace. Ty Mark foe what you do.
Wow... I can hear how intelligent and educated you are. You have had a lot of therapy... I can hear the DBT that has become second nature to you. Listen, it's not over!! You have time. Xoxo
Sending you so much ❤ Skye! You seem to have a beautiful soul. Please fight to get clean, you are WORTH IT. So many opportunities await you. Please don’t give in to the thoughts to leave this world. My stepdaughter had BPD and she took her own life on Christmas 2015. That absolutely destroyed our family with pain. You deserve GOOD THINGS. Tell yourself that every day.
I'm praying for you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ God bless you and much love from EAST TENNESSEE 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Mark, please ask Skye to try Schema Therapy. Her father leaving is the cause of her problems. Like she said: abandonment issues and feelings of emptiness. Skye has a wounded inner child. This is usually characterised by intense feelings of emptiness, helplessness and hopelessness. The emptiness is caused by that initial lack of love and that emptiness drives the addiction.
Low self-esteem, feeling "not good enough" or "defective" leads to her believing she will be abandoned. Subconsciously, she believes she's at fault for her father's abandonment.
Schema Therapy will be a game changer.
EMDR can help a lot to desensitise the pain of the abandonment, too.
Please, please share this with her, Mark.
I just met Skye recently in the last few months in Downtown Denver. And she is still a sweet person but is still homeless and still on drugs. I definitely feel for her and wish she could get the help that she needs before it is too late.
Thanks Mark for another wonderful story about what is REALLY going on!
When President Biden was over in Ireland last week all I kept thinking of was the people on Marks channel and their suffering yet the reception he got here was like he was royalty. Successive governments have failed these people but I felt very uncomfortable how people in Ireland thought he was GOD like while sp many of his own people are suffering and the cost involved of the trip and security was insane too . Thank you Mark for all you do for these people x
Hey I’m Irish ☘️ we have such a homeless issue on our island too. So so sad for our vulnerable communities. Yours and ours. Wishing you a cozy nest ☘️
Nice of you to find someone to blame. 🙃
Such a sweet person Skye you can just tell. I really hope that she gets the help that she needs. She will be in my prayers
Hi Skye I'm an sober addict in recovery for 10 months now, I live in Canada and I've been through therapie houses, rehab and I go to NA/AA meetings, that could help you a lot to go to meetings find people that understand that addiction is actually a disese and you can't just stop doing it by yourself but there's hope out there for you I'm sorry people don't understand, still in 2023, that addiction is a mental disorder just like depression you can't just stop being depress and be happy just by yourself and it's the same for addiction. I wish you the best and it's beautiful that you can cry like that and let your emotions out I know it's hard but talking about it and crying about it is a good first step. One day at a time ❤
I have BPD..i lived with huge trauma since such a young age, i realized it was traumas when i hit 20...awareness is the first step..therapy, not being afraid to cry with your therapist..if it hurts, yoy are probably getting closer from the trauma that hurts you,..dont give up..the darkest hour is just before dawn..
Go back home, regroup, you can do this. Listen to Mark. He has your best interests at heart.
My heart breaks for her. I hope she finds resources and little things of happiness to guide her to a better life. Hugs!
A amazing sweet intelligent woman, I hope she gets all the help she needs.
Skye - your honesty is your greatest strength.
Skye, please see a psychologist and open up as much as possible with each session. It is NOT your fault that you cannot control your range of emotions. Therapy with a psychologist can be literally life changing for you. Finding medications that work for you will take a little time, but please push through. Be honest with your psychologist and they can find what works for you. Life is so much better once you make the first steps. You and your dad will be so much closer. You will be amazed how much help he can be. Your dad loves you and it's time for you to love yourself. I think your BPD is severe ans using cleaner is making it worse. Just keep trying. Ask your dad to help you. I promise you LIFE REALLY IS BETTER after you take your first steps. Give it time because it takes time. Sending you strength to take your first two steps.

Wow, she is young. I hope she finds help. ❤️
Skye honey I hope you can find a way to let go of the guilt about your mother. She was so lucky to have you for a daughter to help take care of her while she was sick with MS. I
I’m living with progressive MS and I would be so lucky to have a daughter who could help me. It’s a difficult job to take care of people who are so sick. Caregiver fatigue is a real thing and I feel like you can get yourself healthy. You can start by loving and forgiving yourself. You are so worthy.
I hope you are doing ok Skye. I know BPD. I have a person that I care about more than life itself who has this personality. We use laughter to handle the dark empty. We talk openly and we have no shame. BPD doesn’t have to be hopeless like the way people stigmatize it. You are so important.
Hi Mark…..I hope you are able to get Skye some resources. Bless you Mark for all you do.
Sky is a lovely woman. I hope we get to see a follow up and things get better 💖
Sweet girl she deserves so much better wish her all the best love from Holland ❤
I am Borderliner too and know how exhausting IT IS, to be your own, worst enemy a Lot of Times. But i am in Treatment and Therapie for over a decade and it got all in all so much better. It's Always a Lot of Work to hold your ill self in Check but it can get better! And you can make it Out of the hole too! You just need Help from Therapie etc. But please don't give up on yourself! 🤘🌹💕🤗🤗
Mark please help this woman as much as you want to, she has a very interesting intelligence right now her will is broken she can be helped there is hope for this Soul...
Thank you!
I understand her so much. I struggle with BPD, and the only thing keeping me off of streets is my family. I want her to know that she’s so hard on herself, and I wish she wasn’t and I wish she saw that she’s such a good person and she didn’t make the wrong decisions. She was just doing what she thought was right there is still hope for her. I hope that someone helps her. I wish I could.
When she said Canada provides assisted suicide for people with BPD I gasped. Lord help this woman death is not the answer for this young woman. I pray she finds the services and help she needs.
I have bpd and when said that it was so triggering. Made me feel absolutely worthless and hopeless tbh.
I'm a Canadian 🇨🇦 and it's not that easy to get doctor assisted suicide here she shouldn't say that
GIRL!! You are beautiful and I bet you don’t think you are. You are worthy of a nice and gentle man. Don’t EVER settle for an abusive man!!! You can pick up the red flags immediately. I always have been able to on a first date and I never have a date #2. I’ve dated many men in my 51 years and I’ve never ever dated an abusive man. Only men who are kind and kind to animals too. You have a very VERY likable personality and you should chase after your dreams!!!!! People will help you and people will hire you.
Believe in yourself. I believe in you!!!!
People have no idea how hard it is to have bpd
I hope she gets help
My biggest fear I ending up homeless because of my bpd
I would like to give her a big hug. Everyone deserves love and happiness.
She sounds just like my daughter. It's so heartbreaking. I'm powerless to help her against this disease.
It's so clear you are a kind and intelligent woman. I hope you can get a hold of your bpd and addiction and have the life you deserve x
She can't. Her receptors are broken.
Childhood trauma is such a journey of the soul. Ultimately you can grow to find the light then use your experiences to help others. Stay strong and keep going, you’re stronger than you can imagine to have come this far. If it helps, it’s not your fault, give yourself permission to feel it and be the parent for yourself that you never had ❤️ Guided psychedelic therapy helped me a lot.
I understand your struggle with BPD and your need to feel like you want to be high all of the time. I fight my depression/borderline personality every day with medications. I wish you SO much luck on your journey to recovery. You're beautiful and you deserve a wonderful life full of joy.
just found out I have BPD and its forced me to be homeless three times in a year, I lost my friends and family and colleagues because of it. there isn't actually enough healthcare or proper training available to address the symptoms. its not something you can take a pill for and it rarely changes over your lifetime. its scary. it scares me seeing people live with it for years on end. I only just started my 30s and it feels like ive ruined my life before it even started. I never got to start my careeer or finish university and any ounce of love from loved ones I had is long gone. I tried explaining why this was happening and it only made it worse to those around me. I get why she's there. I don't wanna end up there. but man it means lumping this on other humans vs being alone. I don't wanna do that to people. it's just as damaging as being an addict. ive never used meth or Heroin etc but it might as well be the same thing.
There are many good jobs that don't require a uni degree. Much of it requires being self-employed or working for someone who is. Figure out what you want to do and start a business in that field perhaps.
@@JMOlsen_ totally agree, college is a scam for most people. I know lots of tradespeople but they started as apprentices as teenagers so I’m about a decade behind. But yeah that’s an option I’m looking at.
Something very endearing about this girl…..I hope Mark can help her 💜
I wish every person on the planet could watch this video. It explains so very very much. Trust me. She's speaking the truth. It's very difficult when you can't trust your own brain, a woman needs to stay awake if she is homeles.... She is spitting all the truths.
God bless you Skye. May you have nothing, but peace and safety from now on.
@@nextinstead A can of air that you clean your keyboard with. It has more than air in there.
@@Stalkedbyapsycho The question is why is she doing meth? To stay awake so she won't get raped on the streets. Ok, why is she on the streets? Borderline personality disorder. Well, why isn't she getting treatment? She said she usually is on meds. Maybe the meds aren't the right ones or not enough. Something is not "right".
Very few people do meth or drugs bc their lives are peaceful and perfect. They've done studies that show when a better alternative is given, people choose the better alternative over drugs. It really is that simple.
One of my closest friends daughters (20) has BPD, she never really had too much trauma in her life, her parents did separate, and her dad was probably a bit strict/pushy regarding education. But that aside she had a lovely upbringing, great, supportive, loving family (close and extended), no abuse. And she is massively, massively in self destruct mode. It’s hurting her mum so much, she’s scared every day for her daughters safety. I worry if something were to happen, (like the trauma that took place in Skye’s adult life) this young woman I know, will end up in Skye’s shoes. BPD is really hard. I myself come from serious childhood trauma, and I have C-PTSD and other mental health issues that I have been dealing with and healing from for many years, but I know where that comes from, and know my triggers (mostly.) I can’t imagine how hard it must be to have BPD, and not understand it/why.
Praying she reaches up and helps herself, the street won’t be so kind. She’s so vulnerable with passing out and seizures!! Stay safe young lady!!
There's childhood traumas in the past of every BPD. For some reason, she suppressed it.
Yes
I’m bipolar and see so much of myself in her. If you’re in therapy and need to tell them you’re suicidal but you can’t be hospitalized tell them you’re suicidal but with “no plan”, it’s the plan that scares them.
It's called suicidal ideation
Skye, thank you for your interview. I pray for the day you will make loving choices for yourself which will give you a better life.
I’m very sorry about loosing your mother. It’s wonderful she had you to care for her in spite of what an all consuming job that is. You gave up your life to give her a good life. Few people would do that. I’ve been a caregiver for many years. I can understand how difficult a job that is. When it’s your loved one, the job takes on a whole new degree of stress. No matter what, you did an admirable job caring for your mother. There are very few who would put their lives on hold to give their all to another human being. As difficult as it was, please know that becoming a parent is even more demanding. It’s another type of caregiving relationship. It is beautiful to be a mother but it’s a giving and giving and giving of yourself lifestyle. A baby runs your life with their constant need. They Totally depend on you because they can’t do for themselves. Much like the situation you had with your mother. Setting yourself up to be the best mom you can be would be a goal to consider. Good mental health, a proper father for your baby, financial stability, a home with all the necessities and transportation are some of the things you need to have before you become a parent. Consider setting these up as goals to have the life you want. ❤❤❤
Skye, that's EXACTLY it. You tell a therapist you're suicidal and they'll throw you in the psych ward. You tell friends/family and they'll call the police. So in the end, there is no one to help.
You can tell them you have suicidal fantasies or ideation. A therapist usually asks if you have a plan at that point.
Another great interview hopefully she takes help.
Nach Ihrem ersten Satz den Sie sagte, spürte ich, dass sie niemanden verletzt. Sie ist ein sehr gutes Individuum! ❤ sie ist sehr wertvoll. Das höre und spüre es! Alles Beste und viel Kraft gezaubert aus Germany
Girl please you do NOT need babies.
Sad!! I can't imagine being beaten. I swear I'd die living that lifestyle. I hope she gets sober and straightens her life out. Skye, you deserve so much more and are capable of a lot that life has to offer. Just put your mind to it and stay away from drugs. Life throws everyone hardballs, it's how we handle it that counts.
Hugs and all the best from beautiful, sunny Canada. 🇨🇦 😊
