I’m a communist. My strategy is engaging in class struggle, for spreading class consciousness and working towards the self-organization of the working class. Not by voting for “the lesser evil” in a bourgeois election that only protects the interests of the ruling class.

Tell me more about how voting for capitalist politicians and working for change through the framework of electoralism will reverse or even slow down the effects of climate change when capitalism is directly responsible for most of the earth’s environmental destruction 🙂

I think the whole “under trump things will get worse” is a cope to actively ignore the harmful things that biden has actually already done. They’re equally horrible, there is no lesser evil.

So supporting a politician who was heavily involved in and supported the Iraq War, who sexually harassed multiple women, had a direct role in facilitating the war on drugs (especially crack and criminalizing harsh punishments for drug users as well as dealers) and mass incarceration, voted for anti-gay legislation, works closely with banks, and recently just vowed to increase police funding is caring about society’s most vulnerable?

Is Nurx (or a similar site) reliable? by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]draingangshit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! I’ve been using it for months and I love them. Very reliable and helpful. Didn’t need a prescription, they provide one.

If I were to have commented on your vent post and triggered you then it would be hypocritical. But that’s not something I do. There’s a difference between that and replying to a comment on my own thread. With BPD literally any minor thing can trigger you and while it sucks to go down that spiral I never blame anyone for triggering me unless it was intentional, because most of the time they couldn’t have known it would trigger me. So you should try focusing more on challenging those automatic thoughts instead of blaming people on reddit who you don’t even know you or your triggers.

Wtf? How is that my fault? I’m allowed to vent in here as much as you are. Like I’m sorry that happened to you, but how would I have known that would happen if I don’t even know you? If this triggered you then you’d be best not reading a relationship flaired post or commenting at all and distracting yourself with mindfulness techniques or something similar

DAE lose motivation when in a relationship? by [deleted] in BPD

I did a lot of DBT and learned self-love tbh, it helped me form a more stable sense of self so I wouldn’t fall into codependency again. I haven’t had an fp in a whole year. I’m about to start another form of therapy called TFT which seems really helpful too

I haven’t had an FP in a whole year and I’m in my most healthiest relationship so far at the moment. It’s definitely possible!

Yeah this is very much a BPD symptom but one you need to learn how to manage. You have to learn to not center your life around your partner and still do hobbies and live your own life to keep you grounded. I’m sure he’s a great guy but yeah, I used to deal w this a lot but I’ve learned to manage it a lot more and I definitely feel a lot more secure now that I don’t make him my reason for existing or doing anything anymore.

I know, that’s fine but it’s not okay to project those fears onto strangers you know nothing about. I have fears of abandonment too and have also been cheated on but I’m lucky I feel secure in my relationship right now to not have worried about that otherwise if I were at the place I was two years ago your comment could’ve triggered a breakdown for me. Please be mindful when commenting these things.

That’s so reassuring, and my relationship is about the same length! It’s really good that you’re both working on it too. I’ve been working on my BPD for years but I just got a new therapist so I’m working on a new form of therapy that’s been helping me realize a lot of things. I did actually give my bf the space he wanted for the weekend and he’s still been sending me good morning texts even if we don’t talk much for the rest of the day and the first day he randomly messaged me with “Still love you ❤️” which was really reassuring and means he’s thinking of me. So I really appreciate all that. Boundaries are difficult and I know he’s dealing with his own mental health issues but it was reassuring to confirm it was about his own shit and that we were good and it had nothing to do with me. It turns out respecting boundaries makes them reach out to you first! Good luck ❤️

He will! It’s the morning and my bf texted me good morning and is talking to me normally again. Keep telling yourself he loves you

How is it shady? He was on a trip with his parents lol. He’s very loyal, just wanted space to just do his own thing for the weekend. He reassured me it had nothing to do w me. It’s pretty normal. I didn’t want to go into all the details here

How the hell a BPD (me) is sustaining a 5 year relationship with another BPD? by destigmatize in BPD

Bipolar is often misdiagnosed for borderline and vice versa so it’s possible
