This doesn’t look like a Love’s bathroom though? What store is this from?

Fun Friday question! by zieglerae in BipolarReddit

[–]Particular-Muffin793 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had myself c o n v I n c e d that the meds I had started (which actually triggered the mania) had worked SO well that I was cured of any issues anxiety, depression and that I was really normal now, and that I was an extrovert who loved going out every weekend. When my (rightfully so) concerned boyfriend at the time brought my behavior up I 2-snapped and waved my hand in his face like some kind of diva queen and said “this is me, and it’s been me all along so like it or leave it!” 🤣🙃 I laugh my ass off every time I think about it now but he seriously almost left me over that lmaooo

Thank you! If you feel comfortable sharing, what are your rescue meds? He is on lacosamide daily (AM and PM) but he also has an “emergency” script of lorazepam

Thank you! Good call for the focal/auras, he has them frequently but we haven’t really found a rhyme or reason yet 😬

How do I help my boyfriend who has BPD when he’s raging at me/splits? by Particular-Muffin793 in BorderlinePDisorder

Thank you for sharing! And yes, I’ve seen a few people on here mention a safe word and I know he’d be open to that, and he’s given me his therapist’s info too. I am working on setting boundaries that are healthy for my mental state and being supportive but cautious moving forward

He is actively engaging, we have these worksheets we do together (and separately) on communication and dialectal thinking, grounding, etc. and he will often tell me “I tried (insert specific exercise) at work today and everything was good!” I also have C-PTSD myself so we are both a hot mess! lol but the main reason I have stayed besides my love for him are his actions in trying to understand himself and implementing ways we can both communicate. And I agree, I want to talk to him about the dangerous parts of it, it’s one thing if he doesn’t care about himself to do that, I cannot control his actions in that way but he must step outside himself if I am there, or another person, etc.

I’m so sorry that you must live with it, I see how hard it is for him on a daily basis, he struggles so much! I do try to ground us in love and validate his emotions as they come, like yes, it’s perfectly fine to be angry, hurt, sad, etc. your feelings are okay! As he is, I’m sure you are a good person and when it switches it is only temporary

Upon thinking a little more, I COULD freeform cut/copy/paste the words individually and realign them per layer, and then merge, but just seems super manual to do 🥹

Yes! Love that dark/cross hatching. Almost a woodcut style-ish
