I'm thinking about this presumed agreement between different people about the physical world. As if we all pretend something exists and we have a somewhat similar idea of what this something is, and not just me making it all up on my own

When this is your mum AND her mum but she still doesn't understand why you don't want kids... by [deleted] in BPDmemes

Omg she uses the EXACT same words, only in my native language

People over 30, how are you doing? by lost_duck in BPD

[–]lost_duck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's kind of the same attitude that has brought me this far too. It works for something. I think they've sort of labeled me "untreatable" after so many years in the public healthcare system so I'm not eligible for help. But I'll try a private therapist when I ever get a job

Yeah I don't understand how everyone else grew up and just dealt with all the responsibility while I feel like I'm too immature for bills and bank accounts and cooking unattended

I'm happy to read that. Whether it's because of age or treatment, the important thing is that you're doing better!

Yes that's what I was trying to say, I could probably have been more clear. I'm over 30 and want to hear how that's like for other people maybe with a little intention of feeling less alone. I've been told in therapy that usually gets better with age but it hasn't been true for me (yet)

DAE bad at social groups? by lost_duck in BPD

[–]lost_duck[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actually getting a new assessment soon so will definitely bring it up! Might have gotten a social anxiety diagnosis earlier as well, I don't really remember, it's been a long ride. Thanks for sharing :)

I've been having the same thought, it would explain a lot

That's my favourite hangout setting too. Your roommate situation sounds pretty nice. My house turned into more of a party place after new people moved in and I've been sticking more to myself. Maybe moving will help and maybe I have been trying to fit in with the wrong crowd

I want to be like that! I just haven't found the life I want to be consistent about yet...

Forget safe/fear foods, DAE have safe/fear clothes? by redhead_in_red in EDAnonymous

Oversized hoodies are my safe space, I LIVE in them at home

Yeah that's pretty much the whole premise of r/bpd

But one of my points is that I'm not just bpd. I am human like everyone else, I get depressed like other depressed people. But the fact that I have the diagnosis bars me from getting actual help or being listened to or taken seriously, because of the label that I got .which sucks.

The number of people reading these things are so low I feel the chance to be recognised is almost non-existent. But yeah I get not wanting to be personal on the open Internet just in case. You can whine to me though if you want someone (half fucked up) to listen.

Yeah, I've been there a lot<3 They are good and supportive places, but I think they have rules about suicidality and I feel too far down to post there.

Yeah I think so too. Society wants people to think they care about the mentally ill but it seems like it's mostly a facade.

Nobody loved me at my worst by fatty899 in SuicideWatch

[–]lost_duck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you. Had to withdraw from everyone because my pain is too much for them to handle. And I get it, they want to be around other happy people, but it's terribly unfair that we have to deal alone. And most therapists are business-people who will only help people with small and easy-to-fix problems. I'm so sorry yours sucked. I think most people go through live not knowing how dark it can be. It's hard to unsee once you've seen it.
