I mean, for obvious reasons. You got a psychotic break, you're suicidal, heavily depressed. Probably using heavily too. Then you OD either accidentally or on purpose.

Is this stuff normal to you or am I exaggerating? I'm starting to consider I can't compare myself to others, doctor has started sitting me up and reminding me I have severe symptoms every single session. I thought he was joking at first, the sittings have gotten more serious. The cheeky tone is gone, they sound more like a warning.

I'm a dude btw, maybe it's a gender thing? Every single BPD male I've met IRL is another petty criminal, drug addict and/or homeless person (this could be due to my local surroundings though). We got the same disease and women can pull their shit significantly better than us, I'm talking from empiric evidence (out of my ass).
