I see a lot of posts looking for validation if we have a right to be upset over certain situations. I know how hard it is, to be hurt and have to question if it’s you or the illness. I just want to say, sometimes people have hurt you, and you have every right to be upset about it. It’s not your illness. We have emotions, and we’re allowed to be hurt and upset without someone blaming it on bpd. I find a lot of times I’ve been hurt by anyone close instead of taking accountability they take advantage of the fact they know I do struggle with borderline personality disorder and they use it against me to gaslight me into thinking that I don’t have a right to be upset and that I’m the problem. 

It’s not always the case. You’re allowed to feel. You’re allowed to hurt. You’re allowed to be angry. If someone hurts you, they don’t get to blame your BPD and decide that they haven’t hurt you. 

I hope you all have a lovely day, that’s just been sitting on my chest and I really had to get it out.
