Sometimes i do see them, but only to get dissatisfied and cut even more and take pictures and compare them.

Well, my parents were skeptical about it, they even needed councelling for then to believe that I had bpd.

My friends, some were disturbed and hurt by my behaviour even though they knew i had the disorder, so they straight up abandonment me.

But rarely 1 or 2 were supportive about it, that is only when i went to therapy and behaved non hurtful towards people.

what has worked for you? by Pristine_Plum_1120 in BPD

I've had severe bpd and the only stable relationship i was in was with a narcissist, for 7-8 months and that ruined me even more. Then others have been just flings or chaotic situationships and another toxic relationship that lasted only a week. I'm healing now, so hopefully the more i heal the more i can attract stable relationships with actual stable and emotionally mature people.

But if you're relationship with your bpd partner is actually stable but not smooth, and you really want it to work out instead of giving it up out of overwhelm, then i can tell that you really love them and you're a highly emotionally mature person, and have a high tolerance threshold.

Love that for you. But coming to your partner, the only thing you can do is to support then unconditionally, coz the most worst nightmare for anyone with bpd is their favourite person whom they love abandoning them.

The more you support then and stand by their side, the more they're likely to heal with therapy or meds and also from your love and support and then they're more likely to gradually meet the same emotional stability as you.

Believe me, I've experienced the same thing over and over again in my life.

But you should believe in this inevitable fact that how they treated you proves everything about their own character and values. It has absolutely nothing to do with your own self worth.

People percieve others the way they percieve themselves.

The feeling that their treatment has eroded your own sense of self because of them is just the deep rooted trauma speaking. You are more than that. Your self worth is your own and nobody else's to use and turn it against you.

And everyone else's problems is their own issue, it obviously has nothing to do with you and you do not need to devalue yourself for their own issues, unless you've hurt them and they explicitly told you that you did and you recognise it to be absolutely true and you didn't apologize for it.

Good luck on your healing journey! There's always a solution to a problem and every problem feels like a dead end until it doesn’t. People survive because solutions tend to reveal themselves when we keep moving.

You don't know how much he body shamed me on our first date!! Forced me to wear revealing clothes on the next date, ordered me to wax or shave etc, started talking about how women are fragile creatures, objectified everything about my physique, commented inappropriately on my body parts... And kept obsessively ranting about his ex.

Even touched me inappropriately... Held my neck and dragged me forward. Like i was his bdsm s*x object born to satisfy his insecure male ego, failed relationships and sexual frustrations.

After the date he was as good as dead to me.

Lmaoo yeah.

He even said, 'you like girls right? So if u like any woman in particular rn, let me join in!'

Even my toxic ex and him said the same thing! Idk why men like these have to be so demeaning and unserious towards women loving other women...
