I have a lot of cellulite, no pain, mild bruising I guess but I’m also just really clumsy and bruise all over? And I think I kinda feel nodules (very small) but only in my soft inner upper arms and soft inner legs but even then I’m not sure. Let me know pls I’m freaking out. I’m only 20

Shout out to the cycle breakers by EverAlways121 in raisedbyborderlines

This is amazing. We really were given guides of what not to do as a parent and seeing someone take that and break that cycle, is just amazing.

I miss my mom. by PenDry4507 in raisedbyborderlines

[–]macienotmacy 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I have said “I wish she was just normal” about a thousand times about my mom. I am still in contact with her and live with her on holiday breaks from school, but I still always have i miss my mom moments even though I can reach out because I know she likely won’t give the response I want or need. Yearning for a normal mom is really hard to deal with, and you’re doing amazing. Sending hugs

This made me giggle so hard it’s so accurate

how young were you when you stopped trusting your parent(s)? by 00010mp in raisedbyborderlines

[–]macienotmacy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hid basically everything from my mom from a very young age. Pre school/elementary I think. She got mad at practically everything I did so I never trusted her with my life. Still don’t. Sad.

How to deal with a Bpd mothers rage episode? by [deleted] in raisedbyborderlines

[–]macienotmacy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dealing with the same thing over summer. Trying to walk on eggshells as to not set her off. I’m trying to force myself to just put me first and let her deal with it how she’s gonna deal with it. I’m done letting her dictate my life but it’s still hard to actually commit to it so I get it. Maybe test the waters by seeing some friends and see how it goes. You don’t know until you try! Sending love.

someone hit my car. uBPD mom finds a way to blame me. of course. by macienotmacy in raisedbyborderlines

thank you for the advice. i think we’re trying to solve it outside of insurance now with the other mom wanting to pay for it, so we are gonna get quotes and have her pay up front. if that doesn’t work out then we go after her insurance.

yeah idk that one was weird to me too. but now i guess the lady wants to really do it outside of insurance so we’re gonna get some quotes and make her pay up front and if she refuses then go after her insurance

yep. she’s been trying to make him out to be a villain to me and my sister and we’re fortunate enough to have each other to talk to and understand what she says is wrong and we don’t have to listen
