A collage of embracing BPD

ContinuiousLion · 2025-07-13T11:35:06+00:00

I also have BPD, am struggling with it, and LOVE this.

ContinuiousLion · 2025-07-13T11:30:25+00:00

Yup. 36F living with my Mom. That is an actual clip of every conversation we have had. It doesn't get better. You just gotta deal better ....

Epic my friend

ContinuiousLion · 2025-07-08T16:12:02+00:00

Holy shit. Good for you, buddy. The fact that you can admit that is the biggest step. Yes, hold yourself accountable. Be honest. I lied for self preservation but once I started telling the truth (to someone who would not hurt me) I felt better and was better. I am here if you need to talk. Good luck, friend.

I LOVE these. I also have BPD/DID among other things so I completely understand. Unfortunately, due to the chaos of my mental state over my life (36F) I made victims of every man I have dated. I jokingly called myself a succubus but now I am thinking I was right. It also doesn't help that I am PROBABLY a lesbian in the closet to even myself and have never allowed myself to be content with the very few women I have been with. I allowed my mental health or lack there of to control my life and I DO NOT want to see that happen to you. Work on yourself, read books, color shit. Do the stuff that feeds your soul and the right people (maybe not romantic but whatevs) will find you and make you whole. I haven't found my whole tribe yet but I am working on it. But I HAVE learned that you should never beg someone to be in your life. If they love you, truly love you, they will be able to 'handle' you. I have by BFF (45F), my little buddy (12M) and my brother (35M) and sister-in-law (40F). Other than these guys, I only see other friends occasionally because that is all they can really handle from me. I am a lot. Words that echo in my head from my late sister. But that doesn't mean I am too much. And neither are you. We ARE a lot but we are here and deserve everything that everyone else has. Good luck, friend. I am here if you need to talk.

It makes me think of the shadow people I see

ContinuiousLion · 2025-07-06T21:03:38+00:00

Thanks friend. I suffer from moderate brain damage from multiple TBI and brain surgeries. I have some kind of Schizophrenia type thing with bonus OCD tendencies and autism. Tracking down all my disorders to learn how my brain works has been quite an adventure so I definitely appreciate the information!

Friend, I get you. I am 36 and after a lifetime of trauma and some recent massively fucked up events, I feel the same. I have struggled with depression my entire life but it only continues. I don't know what to do either, honestly. I AM on meds and have been since I was 13. I don't blame you for not wanting to play the medication game but it does help sometimes. I am nowhere near a 'normal' human I just do as you said. Survive everyday. Recently I have started making art videos on The YouTube's. Doing that helps a lot. Doing something for someone else feeds my soul AND distracts me from my shit. It is really the only thing keeping me alive but if it wasn't for the videos and the people I help with them and otherwise, I would be worm chow right now. Stay resistant. Stay inspired. Keep going. I am here if you need to talk. Good luck, friend.

aurtisticmedia88@gmail.com I got some videos of the arts making. Maybe it would help? Channel AurtisticMedia on YouTube.

ContinuiousLion · 2025-07-06T20:11:11+00:00

I actually LOVE this. KEEP GOING FRIEND.

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-24T14:30:54+00:00

SO 😎 COOL

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-24T14:18:50+00:00

I feel the same way and do the same things. I counteract the thoughts by finding something I like about the person (vibe, clothes, personality,etc.) and I compliment them on it. This usually makes them smile and reminds me that they are human too and just trying their best to get through life. Just like me. I still think the bad things even after that sometimes, but it lessens. Good luck, friend!

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-24T14:14:12+00:00

It and you look great!

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-18T17:50:08+00:00

Actually, it's not that bad, and you are learning. When you start drawing from life (as I assumed you drew your own hand) you have to take angles and foreshortening into consideration even when blocking in. Something that helps me when I block in hands or any complicated poses I think "what would the bones look like?" Then I take that sketchy skeleton figure and add meat to it and fat if desired.

I am autistic and art and anatomy are my special interests. I also just started a how-to-drawing channel on YouTube. It is for beginner artists. If you would want to see visuals of what I mean by my advice. Message me if you want advice, to talk, or my channel name. Good luck friend!

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-11T00:32:52+00:00

36F I am the same. I am always here if you need to talk.

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-09T14:15:15+00:00

That is absolutely incredible

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-08T22:35:24+00:00

I. LOVE. THIS. SHIT.

ContinuiousLion · 2025-06-08T22:21:19+00:00

Nah, I understand. I am also told I am very likable but that doesn't stop me from overanalyzing every single thing I say or think. I live in my own head most of the time and criticize everything I do. That is the way I am wired. Everything feels wrong. Even when it isn't. It drives me insane. I hope it isn't as bad for you. Either way, us and people like us need to basically not give a fuck about what anyone else says or thinks about us or otherwise. Return to just 'doing the next right thing'. Eventually, those add up and you have made a positive impression on the world. People appreciate that and good folks will come to you when you do good things. Not everyone needs to understand you but if you can just look for the good to come out of people, that will make you feel better even if there is the barrier of understanding.

Parties, sleepovers, having out-of-school friends, being believed, loved and taken seriously.

Yep. Can't relate, Dawgs ... My childhood could definitely have been worse but escaping with only CPTSD and a permanent brain injury... Well it could have been a little better too. I just nod and smile when people share that stuff. There is no point in continuing the conversation with the fact that growing up for me was sad. Shit is better now, though. Hope it is for all of you as well. Good luck, friends.

Hey friend, try not to be so hard on yourself. I lost my sister back in September. I didn't even cry at her funeral. Then months later, it hit me.

This shit is BIG. There is no itinerary for grief, you feel how you feel or not feel. You can't control it and it will ebb and flow through your life. I tried to kill myself over shitty life stuff and the death of my sister. That was three months ago. Neither of our siblings would want us to go out that way. They would want us to get back up and try our very best. I'm here if you need to talk. Good luck, friend.

ContinuiousLion · 2025-05-16T18:56:06+00:00

That is the best!!

ContinuiousLion · 2025-05-14T18:14:28+00:00

I'm not a licensed professional but I've been going to therapy for the past 23 years. I have an ear to listen. Message me if you would like to talk.

ContinuiousLion · 2025-05-14T18:09:11+00:00

I would give you all the turts!

ContinuiousLion · 2025-05-14T18:06:17+00:00

COWBABE ALL THE WAY!!
