some of yall forgot, so im gonna remind you:

- Moral Purity is unattainable. This is recognized in philosophy too.

-Moral purity culture today is HEAVILY ableist

- Immoral actions can be justified

- Your personality disorder doesnt make you a "bad person" even if it makes you do "bad" things

- Moral Purists are NOT welcome in real leftist spaces

-Moral Purity is pushed even more in christianity, which should tell you all you need to know.

- You deserve love , even if moral purists label you a "bad person"

- You deserve love. Period. Full Stop.

personality disorder symbol

a symbol for personality disorders in general rather than a specific disorder, like how the rainbow infinity symbol is often used as a symbol of all neurodivergent disorders

i do know that PDs are neurodivergent, i just wanted to create a symbol that encompassed all personality disorders specifically

the lightbulb represents personality, state of mind, and coping mechanisms due to trauma

the sprout represents growth and hopes to destigmatize these disorders, as well as healing from trauma. the sprout can also mean growing and thriving in places you arent expected to as a "fuck you" to ableists, if the healing symbolism isnt to your liking.

Self-proclaimed empaths only believe in redemption until it's someone with a personality disorder.

Self-proclaimed empaths only believe in self-worth until it's someone with a personality disorder.

Self-proclaimed empaths only believe in good days and bad days until it's someone with a personality disorder.

Self-proclaimed empaths only believe it's okay to make mistakes until the person who makes the mistake is a person with a personality disorder.

It's disgusting.

🚀✨ The Totally Accurate Chronicles of Exposure Therapy for AVPD ✨🚀

So, I’ve been doing exposure therapy to tackle my AVPD (Avoidant Personality Disorder), and let me tell you, it’s a wild ride. Imagine trying to train a cat to fetch, except the cat is your self-confidence and it’s currently napping in a box labeled “NOPE.” 🐱📦

Yesterday’s challenge was to have a casual conversation with someone I don’t know well. Easy, right? Except my brain decided this was the perfect moment to stage a dramatic reenactment of every social faux pas I’ve ever imagined. I ended up discussing the weather with a stranger for 45 minutes. Not just the weather—THE WEATHER. 🌦️🌪️

Then came the “meeting new people” part of the therapy. So, I went to a social event, and as soon as I walked in, my brain immediately decided that I was the human embodiment of a “Don’t Talk to Me” sign. I’m pretty sure I managed to achieve the world record for most awkward “Hi” in a single night. 🤦‍♀️👋

And let’s not forget the best part: confronting my fear of criticism. My therapist said, “Write a blog post about your experience.” Well, here I am, writing a blog post, and my internal editor is currently screaming “THIS WILL BE THE WORST BLOG POST EVER!” 📉🖋️

So if you see me out there, chatting about the weather or pretending to be super chill while internally flipping out, just know I’m on a journey. A journey where I’m discovering that maybe, just maybe, being awkward is my superpower. 🌟😅

Here’s to conquering fears one awkward moment at a time! 🥂💪 _________

Some people have the belief that having two personality disorders together with counteractive symptoms isn't possible. E.I.: a pwNPD also has AvPD. This usually comes from the belief that the presentation (rather internally or externally) is absolute with a continuous idea.

With NPD specifically, it is believed that the presentation is to show as wanting all positive attention, belief of feeling superior, and the need to be perceived by anyone in a positive light. This is an extreme presentation that is not inclusive towards the other symptoms that occur due to the strong feelings of superiority. NPD is the constant state of waves that include low self-esteem and high self-esteem that is caused by the fragility of one's ego. I put emphasis on the low self-esteem and fragility of one's ego here. I'd argue that if a pwNPD experiences severe bouts of negative episodic symptons, then they would qualify for AvPD (traits modifier). Especially if their positive episodic symptons of a high is as fragile as anything else, a simple feeling of insecurity due to AvPD would make someone crash harder than ever before.

Having AvPD with NPD makes the 'lows' feel more possible to occur and more severe. Someone with NPD can have that brief period of trying to rationalize that perception of any negative connotation towards themselves with anything they could think of (e.g. 'Why would this person's opinion matter if they are beneath me?'). Someone with both disorders will end up not having that brief period of salvation and instead have the complete opposite. This is where the AvPD is seen most prominently.

AvPD can even present during the highs of a positive episodic sympton occurrence in regards to NPD, but it is more present internally than externally. That reach for the need to be perceived as nothing but positive and treated as such makes the insecurity and avoidance seem small. The symptoms of AvPD will gradually get louder and harsher because of the combative feelings and thoughts shown otherwise. An example of this is how pwNPD can intake any positive compliments towards themselves, but even one small remark that they see as negative starts the spiral of rumination.

What I'm saying is that the symptoms of both disorders play into each other rather than contradict. NPD will experience a couple of symptoms predominantly, whereas AvPD will combat that by playing on said symptoms. It also works vice versa.

The disorders seem to counteract each other - and they do. That is the whole framework of the presentation. It is to cause severe 'high' and 'lows' to extreme ends of the spectrum, resulting in the instability of many aspects of oneself.
