#i know you can’t really trust online mental health quiz things#but i don’t have a therapist or anything (and i would always lie to my old counselor anyway 😋)#and it’s like Hm. i think. i might. have some symptoms of borderline personality disorder 🙂#every single quiz had the question of ‘do you chronically feel empty inside?’ and i didn’t even have to consider my answer it’s a hard yes#and some sites were like ‘people with bpd often struggle with cycles of over-idealizing people or seeing them extremely negatively’#and it’s like Oh you mean that thing i do where i become obsessed with a person and only think about them and think they’re just so amazing#and then they do one thing that baaaaarely skews that impression and suddenly i’m convinced that they’re an awful person#and that i’m better off without them and i never liked them anyway and they’re just the worst#you mean That thing i commonly do? usually uncontrollably?#you mean that thing that consistently steers me away from wanting to be in relationships with anyone because the second i find a flaw that#shatters my perception of them as something Perfect#i lose all interest Immediately#‘do you have a fear of being abandoned’ what do you think#‘people with npd may try to end relationships quickly to avoid being abandoned’ hey. put that away. wtf man#‘back to the feelings of chronic emptiness; do you struggle to understand your self/values/interests’ i said STOP

i want to tell my friends i have bpd but i don't really know how to explain it or my symptoms with out it being all jumbled/confusing
Hm! Well, I can tell you how I normally explain it to my friends who had little to know idea what bpd is.
I’d say “okay, so. I got BPD, it stands for borderline personality disorder. Long story short, my feelings are a lot stronger than yours, my mood swings? Harsh as heck. If you’re mad at me, tell me, because I will notice immediately and will think you hate me. I lack emotional permanence and might ask you if you still like me or not, it’s just me overthinking but please tell me. I appreciate and would like for you to understand who I am and what I experience! Thank you” that’s sort of what I said but idk if you’d like some more symptoms listed!!!
