I don't know why I did it, because I know everytime I've watched similar videos in the past it's upset me, but today I watched one of those crash course psychology videos about Personality Disorders, and as usually BPD was portrayed with the usual "BPD patient needs attention/validation" bogeyman and said things like how BPD patients use self-injury and have fits of rage to "Seek validation." It's just another reminder about BPD's stigma and how we're all apparently mentally ill because we just ~want validation~ (/s) Like, really, I'm just sick of it, and I don't know why I keep watching these sort of things, maybe because I hold out hope that some day someone will talk about BPD in a way that isn't completely condescending.
