I rang my dad earlier and told him that I have BPD, he started laughing at me and said that there’s no way that I have a personality disorder and that he’s worked with people who have personality disorders and that they can barely function. I am not super close with my father but when I was living at home I think it was very apparent that I had trouble regulating my emotions and I have a very unstable relationship with my mother. My dad is fully aware of the physical and emotional abuse I suffered at the hands of my mother when I was younger, but he says it wasn’t that bad and ‘loads of south asian kids get hit by their parents.’ I struggle so much with my BPD it causes so many problems with my boyfriend and the anxiety/ paranoia i have is awful. It feels so shit that my dad would just deny that I suffer from it
