good people, just a moment!

Panel 1: a person coloured in red saying "There are a lot of articles on how to "survive a person with BPD," or "why you should run from a BPD person." So here are a few tips on how to help your friend with BPD, from a person who has BPD and wonderful friends."

Panel 2: The red person saying "Verbal confirmation is very important. It builds trust and heavily decreases a chance of their mental breakdown." "Very" is emphazised.

Panel 3: a graphic of the red person and a colourless person, with the heading "1. Try to state how you feel as much as possible." Three examples of the same situation are given. The first has the colourless person saying "I won't come today." The second shows that what the red person hears is "I won't come today because I'm mad at you. I also have a ton of things that are way better than being around you." The third suggests an alternative, where the colourless person says "I won't come today. We're fine. I'm just too tired, but I'd love to come next time." In response to this, the red person thinks "They're not mad. They still love me."

Panel 4: a graphic of the red person and a colourless person, with the heading "2. Little things matter too." Three examples of the same situation are given. The first has the colourless person saying "My day was okay. Nothing unusual." The second shows that what the red person hears is "My day is none of your business." The third suggests an alternative, where the colourless person says "My day was okay. I walked my dog and went to work." In response to this, the red person thinks "They're comfortable talking to me."

Panel 5: a graphic of the red person and a colourless person, with the heading "3. Your personal space is important. Just... be careful to tell them that none of your personal stuff involves harming them." "Is" is emphasized. Three examples of the same situation are given. The first has the colourless person saying "I don't want to talk about it." The second shows that what the red person hears is "I don't want to talk about it with you." "With you" is emphasized. The third suggests an alternative, where the colourless person says "I don't want to talk about it, but I promise it's not you." In response to this, the red person thinks "They trust me."

Panel 6: "Be understanding. Remember: It might not look like it, but their emotions are intense. They are very real and take over their whole mind and body. They might not let them form sentences, so they won't be able to tell you what upset them until they're calm. Their brain is very sensitive. Just because you didn't mean to hurt them doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt."

Panel 7: "They do not know that you didn't mean to hurt them. Once it happened, in their eyes, you became a "bad" person, so everything they know about you is discarded. A verbal confirmation of your true intentions can help you start to resolve a conflict and regain their trust." The colourless person and the red person are shown hugging after the last sentence.

Panel 8: The red person saying "Everyone is different, so it's best to ask what's the best way to help them, but talking is key."
