I decided it'd be cool if I posted when I'm in a good place. After months of being at my absolute lowest, it's been over a week since I've had suicidal thoughts. I feel almost normal! For now haha.


I just wanted to say when I'm in a really bad place, my diagnosis feels like a death sentence, and I completely forgot that there are times I kinda (shh don't tell) *like* being borderline. 


Although I love this thread, and it's helped tremendously when I've felt alone, it does kind of seem like a place that we come only when things are pretty bad. I figured while my mood is up and my head is clear, I'd remind yall of the good stuff!


Here's what I like about my bpd:


• Since I know I can overreact and misjudge situations, I'm really good at acknowledging when I'm wrong and taking steps to make things right.

• I'm not boring. We aren't boring people haha. Although drama is mostly considered a bad thing, *everyone* enjoys a little drama in their lives. Life wouldn't be the same without ups and downs and conflict and resolution.

• When I'm happy, my loved ones are even happier. To see the look in my mom's eyes when I'm talking about what how good of a mood I'm in, gives me so much incentive to keep working on myself.

• I'm really loyal to my partners, and they've always really appreciated that about me.

• My natural and inherent mirroring comes into play in the bedroom and I'm always told what an amazing lover I am.

• I have a strong sense of justice and right and wrong, and I find myself standing up in situations that a normal person may not be brave enough to.


There's just a few of them! I hope everyone has a really good day. If you're in a really bad spot right now, please just remember you aren't alone in this, and you are welcome to reach out to me.
