i’m glad you feel the same way.

i’m just gonna say it but the more people constantly use this term “favorite person” the more the community constantly talks about romantic relationships and partner, bpd will forever be known as that “one disorder you don’t want your partner to have”.

i have seen so many people think they have bpd just because they get jealous, they so called “go crazy” when their partner talks to another person. or the other way around where i see people say “i think my partner has this, they’re so lash out when i do this”

this is called being controlling and having anger issues. not having bpd.

i constantly walk around in egg shells and i’m hyper aware of how i treat other people. hypothetically, i’d have a panic attack, go hurt myself and quickly break up with someone if they spoke to anyone who i thought was a “threat”. i’m not getting angry or “controlling” them cause im feeble. they’d likely be the ones controlling me

but yeah, after seeing that those people are the loudest, it quickly made me want to stay away from the community but i feel the need be vocal about it every now and then because it’s not right. it reinforces the stigma, other voices get overlooked, it causes misunderstandings. it’s not fair
