Sempre in gamba

I saw a quote this week that said ‘What you think about a person, isn’t necessarily how they are’ and this really resonated with me after my diagnosis, especially after a long history of social anxiety. I come across as a really negative cynical person, who hates everything and everyone, but that isn’t me - inside I am this gooey marshmallow who takes everything everyone says to heart, and cares a whole lot too much. I’m in a situation where my boyfriend’s friends and family don’t particularly like me because he is seen as the golden boy, and so all arguments are my fault - not really anything to do with BPD. But most people would be able to move on from this, knowing that everyone makes mistakes, and that I have actual friends who love me for who I REALLY AM! It’s a hard concept to get used to - that most people don’t like you when they first meet you, but this is just a thank you to all of my lovely friends who make me feel like I am loved and I am likeable from the start. 

direct message me if you want because i don’t know who you are! if not, thanks for making my day a little brighter 🙌
