a bpd concept:

Concept: I can enjoy exploring my identity & it's ok if I want to try a new name

Concept: I don’t base how I feel about my own work solely on others opinions on it

Concept: Although people with BPD struggle with intense emotions, I am in some ways okay with that. I get to love things and people more passionately than most can. We may have really low lows, but no one can take away how passionate and caring we really are. Sometimes love can balance out the pain.

concept: i dont split on close friends whenever they show even a slight sign of rejection

Concept: I get accepted for my diagnoses without judgement or stigmas

Concept: people who experience violent urges/intrusive thoughts are just as much deserving of treatment as people who don’t have them

Concept: I dont fall in love with everyone who gives me attention for a while

Concept: I don't have to sacrifice myself for others, so they wont leave me. I am allowed to step out of situations that are unhealthy for me.

concept: my fp can talk to someone without me feeling like she’s going to abandon me and replace me with someone who has less emotional problems

concept: no one is a burden for their bpd, it doesn’t make them difficult to handle or more trouble than they’re worth, anyone who thinks otherwise isn’t worth being around

concept: relapse is okay. you'll have better days. everyone still cares about you, no matter what you did.

concept: i am okay. my jealousy will not destroy me today. one step at a time.

concept: im allowed to get upset at small things and i shouldnt be made fun of by my "friends" for it.

concept: I can learn new things about myself without feeling like I have to reinvent my entire personality

concept: I can learn to move on and become a better person.

concept: my friends aren’t ignoring my messages cause they don’t like me. they’re just busy, or sleeping, or just don’t feel like talking at that specific moment. and that’s completely okay

Concept: Closure isn’t always a bad thing or painful. Closure can be healthy and is essential for my growth.
