@CarlDunnJr @ajcan36 I think I’m desperate to be liked /thought hilarious / thought competent by others. I feel I have to give 100000% myself all day everyday

@BPDS122 @ajcan36 A demanding job can definitely cause us to neglect ourselves. What do you think causes the strange dynamics? #BPDChat

Does anyone have something in particular they want to discuss? #BPDChat

@CarlDunnJr @ajcan36 I have quite a high responsibility job which I adore but can make me neglect myself + find myself getting into strange dynamics.

@ajcan36 @BPDS122 This all sounds good. These activities involve doing things/accomplishing things which makes us feel as though we can affect our world. They also involve self-care which is very important. #BPDChat

@CarlDunnJr I don’t know about others but I feel so so tired mentally/physically a lot of the time - I think rest is key for my well-being.

@BPDS122 What do you thing might help you with this? Sometimes I try to keep focused by reminding myself of my long-term goals & by scheduling good activities (such as exercising). If I notice a problematic pattern, I might look at the whole chain of events & see how I got there. #BPDChat
