kinda important things i want people to know about borderline personality disorder
1. "I hate you, don't leave me."
BPD makes everything very black and white. I either love something, or I despise it intensely. And it often flips depending if I get triggered. I go from loving my mom, to wanting to p much kill her in SECONDS. Something as simple as her asking about my homework is enough to trigger me into hating her. Now, she is abusive, so another example. I love my best friend, See More I never want them to leave me, but they might do something that pisses me off, so I never want to see them again, but I don't want them to abandon me. It's very hard to explain.
2. I have intense fear of abandonment
I CANNOT be left alone. This doesn't mean I'm overly social, or a crazy extrovert, I could very much be shy and introverted, but if you leave me alone, leave me on read, or ignore (real or imagined) me, I will do everything in my power to "win you back", even if never intended to leave me in the first place.
3. I'm too much for myself sometimes.
I often dissociate, or have "out of body" moments. it's like watching myself do things that maybe I don't want to do. I don't have true control over myself, it's like watching a movie in first person, but maybe I have a little control? it's hard to explain. This usually happens when I get overwhelmed so much or so stressed by something that I literally separate from reality to protect myself. For example, when someone yells at me (extremely triggering for me) I separate from myself to literally stay sane

hey, if you ever need someone, I think you still have my number if you need to call or vent. I know exactly how this is and it’s the worst feeling in the world and feeling like you’re alone is the most ass part about it.

Buddy it's not my place to say but your parents don't exactly sound like the kind of people you want to listen to
And lying to protect yourself does NOT make you a bad person.

You're not a failure. I can promise that I've done worse things than you. Besides, you're what, like, 16? You have your whole life ahead of you to turn around. As far as being a bad person goes, literally what makes you a bad person? What have you done that's so bad?

Focus on the homework. It's good to get your mind off of hallucinations and back on reality. Stuff like homework is especially good because it requires you to think.
on December 17, 2018
You can also try simple activities like drawing, colouring, listening to music, watching youtube or TV, etc.
on December 17, 2018
I know it doesn't seem like you are, but you are. You have more control than you think. Tell the voices to go away and focus on what you know is real. You are real, I am real. Find something you can hold onto and focus on like a stuffed animal or a rock.

dan and phil just uploaded a video where they talk openly about liking boys, and play a game where they “date” boys and never make a joke about being single.

reminder to not go on tumblr tomorrow for ANY REASON
@orbit bc tumblr is banning all nsfw content which is really bad for artists, creators, and they are banning and tagging people as nsfw for no reason.
this is also extremely bad for sex workers

i put a rubber band on my wrist (the one with the silver parts) and slap it against my skin when i dissociate
or i pinch the inside of my arm so i can focus
it's hard being away from reality, but our minds do it to protect us
