Description
i never really liked the term “recovery” in terms of living with borderline personality disorder. it has weird implications that its something you can get over, like a flu or cold. i like the idea of management though. i would say im very pro-management and mindfulnessits a tricky thing, but with a lot of work and effort, support and love, you can fight the black and white of your mind and learn to be able to see some of the beautiful shades of grey in life
im not so sure bpd would ever go away, but you can befriend it and live with it at least

This is so beautiful. The creature kind of creeps me out, but in a way that's sort of endearing. I think you really caught that feeling of something that may not be wanted but is nevertheless part of who you are.

im diagnosed with borderline personality disorder too, its hard to find the in between, its normally black or white.
finding gray is a wonderful moment,
and lately my life has been all black due to being a senior in highschool and having to take the SAT 3 times and failing them all, etc
its so so so hard right now because its been so dark, but i do have those rare moments where i find gray
and it feels fantastic

at the risk of sounding like an egg the way you talk about living w/ your bpd really gives me hope for learning to manage + live with mine

I agree you here, same with other mental disorders. I studied Psychology as my major since I have been struggling with my own self, and understanding what is going on has let me manage with my own problems- and like you said, to be mindful of what you do. To be able to think of what you're doing, to think of the consequences, before acting.
This is a very nice piece you have done, per usual ;v; I am glad you are able to manage!
