No one talks about the insane boredom that comes with #BPD - the numbness that just won't go away with any activity. That lack of pleasure, happiness, or enjoyment just makes us do extreme, dangerous, and risky things to feel something - ANYTHING.

If you have BPD and received an official diagnosis, we're you surprised when you heard the diagnosis?

Hey shoutout to everyone with BPD. The disorder sucks and the stigma sucks. What they say about you isn’t true. I love you. You’ve got this.

Some therapists choose not to tell patients they meet criteria for BPD. That can delay treatment for years. Learn more & free stream a video on BPD diagnosis on BPDVideoBlog: bpdvideo.com/borderline-per… #borderlinepersonalitydisorder #BPDdiagnosis #BPDtherapists #BPDVideo

When you've kept silent for so long, it really hurts to be told to be quiet. #mentalhealth

Icebreaker: Do you have a crisis / self-soothe kit? If so, what do you keep in it? Do you think such a kit might be helpful? #BPDChat

Tonight's topic is... Wanting to Hear from You: What's Most Challenging for you right now? #BPDChat

Why do I share all this stuff? It helps me & I hope it helps others feel less alone. #BPD

If you've ever been in a room with people speaking in a stigmatising or discriminatory way about mental health problems, but didn't feel safe enough to speak up or disclose your own personal experience...this tweet is for you.

If you have BPD do you get headaches a lot?

"Not having control of your emotions literally feels like you're sitting in the passenger seat of your brain, yet you're also the one driving. And the driving is out of control. It's scary, and you don't know if you'll make it." -Sam

Here we have a piece written by our founder, Sam! They wanted to deal with the feeling that people with #BPD arent in control of their emotions!!
