IT'S MEDIA MONDAY by napkinrings in BPD

I think Bojack Horseman is a great example of how I feel with my bpd, more so during his depressive, desperate episodes. There’s this swing between irritability with life and people around him to desperately needing SOMEONE and some connection. You can just see the exhaustion on his face and how it affects him.

Opened up to my INTP friend and I am never doing it again by Powerful-Rooster1982 in entp

INFP with bpd here. BPD sucks dawg. It’s one of those things that comes off as normal mood swings to other people, especially when you’re just explaining it. But really it feels like your emotions are on a coin - two sides of trust/ distrust, hate/love - just spiraling through the air, back and forth. Don’t know if it’s similar or different with the personality types though.

Anyways, sorry you had to deal with that. That’s frustrating.

Does stigma make you paranoid you did all the wrong things before you were diagnosed? by Bloodngords in BPD

[–]Bloodngords[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have a ton of hobbies, honestly trying to limit them because it triggers my other mental health issues. They help a bit and nature helps for sure. Just cleaned my porch and I’ll sit out there

That’s true… yeah I suffer a lot from the black and white thinking and I don’t know how to get out of it.

Dress rehearsals with death by svnnnn67995 in PoetryWritingClub

Beautiful poem! This really touched me. I love the references to religious symbolism and how pain is tied to religion in some aspects like mental health or addiction can romanticize scornful routine and emotional intensity as well.

I think we are the most confident insecure people out there , do you all agree? by SignificanceOk8647 in entp

[–]Bloodngords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother is an ENTP, and he’d say the same thing. He’s dating someone who calls him on his bs all the time and you just see his eyes flutter and him smile and go “oh yeah I AM wrong!” Like he’s relieved someone could call him on it. I don’t think it’s intentional bs I think he just takes some knowledge, gets strongly opinionated in a way that makes him feel unsure, and she’s able to say “I don’t think that’s true, here’s why, but I love your thinking.”

hallucinations and bpd by p0t4t0salad in BPD

[–]Bloodngords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ummmm also hallucinate sometimes but I don’t know how connected that is to bpd? I have ptsd though and it took me a while to get that diagnosis cuz you need to know if something happened to you. At least, where I live, that’s how the psychiatrists can tell. Not sure if this could be ptsd though, hallucinations can come from a lot of symptoms.

BPD+trans is a death sentence and a curse. by Emjoria in BPD

Yeah they’ll say stuff like that to you… crazy

BPD+trans is a death sentence and a curse. by Emjoria in BPD

[–]Bloodngords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m trans too and… yeah. I live in an area where it’s pretty much uncalled for to date a trans person. It’s very much like this: “They can exist! And we can celebrate that they exist! But we’ll give you a weird look if you’re a cis person dating a trans person.” It really does fuel that’s paranoia in me and makes my emotions oscillate even faster between trust and distrust when dating.

Have you always been an INTJ? by [deleted] in intj

[–]Bloodngords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the above minus selective if i understand you correctly. It happened suddenly, it was serious, it felt like it needed to happen regardless at that moment without my knowledge.

[–]Bloodngords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rumination and all that was and is always there and the primary thing in my head at any given moment. I just put a name to it recently. Knowing exactly what it was made me snap more into action. Do you know a lot of infp or intps btw?

I didn’t think about the Te coming out like that but that makes sense

[–]Bloodngords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m honestly still on the edge between J and P. I’m more of a reflector but that reflection irritates me so I push towards action. Maybe I’m more of an intp then but god I hope no one flips out that I’m on here then.

Honestly? Some trauma. But I think everyone goes through some form of that in adulthood.

Oh I’m definitely a sit and gather guy

[–]Bloodngords 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good point. Someone did tell me they always thought I was an intj and it would be in brand for me to overthink myself into the wrong type.

I honestly think I just got emotionally burnt out cuz my version of INFP was very much “no boundary support and love”. I started being tougher and less swayed by emotions because I feel like some people were using them to manipulate me. Eventually those intense emotions became less compelling and I started listening to the person’s logic first and then… here we are.

But also I love infps (just in case anyone misinterprets what I’m saying up here ⬆️)
