Hi, friends. I am Teal. I've established quite the premise already haven't I? Alright, here is the thick of things: Sometime ago I had a series of mental breakdowns and got a crash course in mental health issues and the intricacies surrounding them.  

In this crash course I went to the outlet I know best. Gaming and the internet. Of course the thing that intertwines those elements exceptionally well is Discord. After bumbling around a lot of support groups on Discord, pouring out my feelings, listening to the feelings of others, I decided I should create a community around mental health myself. See if I could do things a little differently. 

Thus Hip Healz was created. Partially because it rhymes with Teal so so well.
I don’t pretend to have BPD, and I am not promising that I will be able to deliver expert counsel for those of you with it. I just know I have a lot of friends with BPD who often need and appreciate support. 

So if you want to check out my Discord, be warned it's just starting we have a grand total of 2 members at this point, here's some links:

You are probably thinking: Teal, you dumb slut, why are you starting here? First off, I am no slut, pal. Second off, one of the first communities I was ever party to was a BPD server that was converted into a server for general mental health. I got to meet a lot of cool folks struggling, or coping surprisingly well, or just dancing on the roof, with BPD.
