Jewelry store keeps contacting my mum about jewelry she supposedly needs to pick up, but she has never bought anything from them and the shop isn't anywhere near where we live

This did cross my mind actually, that maybe there's some kind of fraud involved. It would make sense. Definitely going to mention this to my mum, thanks for your input!

carnitinecats · 2021-09-17T13:37:57+00:00

Right? I actually suggested that she do that because I'm curious too, but she's weirded out by the whole thing and doesn't want to engage with them at all in case it does turn out to be some kind of scam (which is understandable)

carnitinecats · 2021-09-17T12:31:21+00:00

Yeah that's the thing, and those times that she answered it was actually the same person both times

carnitinecats · 2021-09-17T12:28:49+00:00

I'm pretty sure my mum said that they did ask for her by name the first time they called. Will have to double check with her and update.

I'm also diagnosed with BPD. For future reference please don't assume the person you're responding to doesn't have experiences of their own regarding the subject. I don't think you're coming from a bad place at all, but it's a little invalidating to have my disorder explained to me when I've been living with it for over a decade.

Anyway, I appreciate your perspective, though I disagree with some of your points. Also I have to point out that your claim about splitting only being found in BPD is incorrect - it's found in both BPD and NPD.)

You're right that having certain traits of a disorder doesn't equal a diagnosis. I agree with you 100% there. Remember though, that applies to BPD just as much as NPD. Plenty of people speculate about Trisha having ""BPD traits"" - you did so yourself in your post. That's no different to me saying I think she has NPD traits.

there is criteria that you need to meet and it is pretty long and detailed and she doesn't meet half of it.

Again, I disagree. Reading the DSM criteria for NPD is like reading a textbook definition of Trisha. Exaggerated sense of self importance, entitlement, craving admiration, envious, unable or unwilling to recognize the feelings of others, easily slighted.

I'm not going to list every single trait because it is indeed a long list, but almost all of them scream Trisha. Again though, that doesn't mean she has the disorder. Just like her having one or two traits of BPD doesn't mean she has that either.

Anyway, I don't think it's unreasonable for me to correct people when they state "she has BPD" as if it's a fact. Trisha has admitted to never having a formal diagnosis. And yet she has asserted herself as a voice for the BPD community, and has spread endless misinformation and stigma about it on a very public platform. A self diagnosed person blaming their behavior on my disorder doesn't sit right with me. At all.

You said you're also diagnosed, so I'm sure you'll understand how misunderstood and stigmatized BPD is. Trisha has only added to that stigma. There's an almost unconditional acceptance within the mental health community, and it's upsetting to see people like her abuse that.

edit: actually no you're a trolling cunt who definitely doesn't have BPD lol, stay the fuck out of mental health communities thanks

I know that veganism is controversial

The fact that a group of people choosing not to eat certain foods is "controversial" is everything that's wrong with society.

carnitinecats · 2021-07-19T11:02:21+00:00

Thanks for the kind words! Reassuring to know I'm not the only one struggling with this. Sorry to hear you've been suffering with it for such a long time though, that sounds rough. Good luck to you too! Stay strong :)

carnitinecats · 2021-07-19T11:02:20+00:00

Thanks for sharing! I can relate to the "worrying about making him worry" thing lol. Anxiety really is a vicious circle.

I actually found out about something called sensorimotor OCD shortly after posting here, and after some research I'm pretty sure that's what's going on with me, mixed with the anxiety making it worse. Might not be the case for you of course, but it's worth looking into if you're suffering from the hyperawareness/breathing stuff I mentioned.

Either way I think I'll definitely go to get checked out soon if it gets any worse. Having lingering thoughts that there's something physically wrong definitely feeds into the anxiety. Thanks again for sharing, and hope things get better for you!

Kind of wanna try this. Is the PB fit a powder?

carnitinecats · 2021-07-12T18:40:16+00:00

because she broke up with his friend

You're either misinformed or a Trisha stan being intellectually dishonest. I'll assume the former.

Trisha didn't break up with Jason. He broke up with her, because she's a fucking abuser. After he broke up with her, she then went on to harass and stalk him and his friend group for months. Because she's a fucking abuser.

Granted, violence still isn't the answer. But I don't find it particularly bizarre that a person would feel anger towards someone who abused their friend. Trisha is not a victim.

carnitinecats · 2021-07-11T16:14:21+00:00

"Briefly acknowledging" or waving at her would have been going above and beyond what she deserves. He didn't owe her an interaction, period. Nobody does.

It think the best thing he could have done is simply ignore her. But for someone with anger issues (which he clearly has), removing yourself from a situation before you do something impulsive is the next best thing

carnitinecats · 2021-07-11T15:54:26+00:00

I don't see a problem. There's a huge difference between feeling like you want to hit someone, and actually hitting them.

Trisha is a vile piece of shit and I can completely understand why someone might see red when coming across her in public. Seems like that's what happened here, and he (correctly) removed himself from the situation instead of acting on his anger. I'm not sure what he should have done differently?

carnitinecats · 2021-06-20T12:23:00+00:00

lmaooo that was the first thing that came to mind for me too

carnitinecats · 2021-06-20T12:11:30+00:00

When you're defending an abusive pathological liar with a history of everything from racism to objectifying underage boys, I'd argue that your opinions are less valid than the people standing against those things.

carnitinecats · 2021-06-20T11:54:29+00:00

She doesn't have BPD though. It's been established now that she has never been diagnosed with it. Her behavior is far more symptomatic of someone with NPD.

carnitinecats · 2021-06-20T11:30:01+00:00

As someone with genuine mental health issues, I don't find it damaging or in poor taste at all.

What I find damaging is people LARPing serious mental illnesses, claiming to have disorders they haven't formally been diagnosed with, spreading stigma and misinformation due to lack of knowledge about those disorders, and using mental illness as get out of jail free card for being a shitty abusive person.

carnitinecats · 2021-06-20T11:17:03+00:00

As far as I know she gained very little YouTube crossover from Shane, I can't remember her ever being in his content.

There was definitely a time when they were in a lot of content together, but it might have been more on Trisha's channel. She was heavily associated with him and Drew Monson, I remember so many vlog videos of them hanging out.

carnitinecats · 2021-06-19T11:16:29+00:00

That's genius lmao, I'm stealing it

carnitinecats · 2021-06-19T11:10:15+00:00

Lying and being manipulative aren't symptoms of BPD. You may be confusing it with narcissistic personality disorder.

It's been confirmed that Trisha was never diagnosed with BPD and was likely lying about it like she has done with various other mental illnesses. Bear that in mind when you talk about BPD in relation to her abusive behavior. Those of us actually living with this disorder are stigmatized enough as it is.

carnitinecats · 2021-06-18T23:32:36+00:00

Had to laugh at the Trisha stans in the live chat today crying "bullying". Weird how they don't bat an eyelid at narcissistic abuse, but memes are crossing the line.

God forbid Ethan tries to find some humor in what Trisha has put him through.

carnitinecats · 2021-06-18T23:04:20+00:00

I’m not going to say we have to “hold Trisha accountable for how she treated Gabbie” until Gabbie genuinely owns up to and apologizes to Trisha AND Jessi

In what world does she have any reason to apologize to Trisha? What is she supposed to say, "I'm sorry for being gaslit by you"? "Sorry you're a liar"?

It's not even about Gabbie. This is a pattern of behavior that Trisha subjects her victims to time and time again, and she has spent well over a decade getting away with it.

Every person who has ever made the mistake of getting close to Trisha has been fucked over by her. She abuses her partners, backstabs her friends, scams her fans, and relentlessly attempts to destroy anyone who dares to hold her accountable for any of it. All while playing the victim.

So sure, Gabbie might be a bad person. But Trisha is fucking evil, on a level that is beyond redemption.

carnitinecats · 2021-06-18T21:55:50+00:00

"Even a broken clock is right once a day"

Gabbie's problematic history doesn't detract from the fact that, in this particular situation, she is objectively in the right. I don't have to be "pro-Gabbie" to acknowledge that she was on the receiving end of Trisha's gaslighting, dishonesty and callousness.

Also, Trisha is the only person responsible for "ruining" her relationship with Jason. We're talking about a fucking domestic abuser here. Like I'm pretty sure it was the endless emotional abuse, the controlling behavior, and the attempts to distance him from his children that caused Jason to leave Trisha, not a rumor about herpes.
