Dealing with BPD symptoms: Any advice?
in Psychology ·
Look, I’m a BPD survivor myself, so I get it... It’s honestly brutal, not just for the person struggling, but for everyone else stuck in our orbit too. We end up being total emotional vampires. We basically wreck anyone who tries to get close or actually shows us some love... even while we’re desperately starving for that exact same affection. Our little survival mechanisms might make us look all innocent and sweet enough to trigger some sympathy from outsiders, but let’s be real—in the long run, we just end up burning through everyone around us.
