Mental health professionals estimate approximately 1.6% of the population meets criteria for borderline personality disorder (BPD), so chances are you have at least one friend with BPD. Unfortunately, the borderline personality disorder symptoms and behaviors associated: such as manipulation, self-harm, and emotions like an intense rollercoaster--can make staying friends difficult. Since we already did a video on things your friend with depression or anxiety wants you to know, we thought we cover one on BPD too. Hopefully, you will find this video helpful.

    Do you have a bestfriend with BPD? Do you find this video accurate?
  • @brianava484
    That awkward moment when you have recently been diagnosed with BPD and suddenly understand why all your friends never wanna be with you anymore...
  • @evarose7789
    I'm in a relationship with someone who has BPD, we've been together for nearly two years now (on and off) and it's been the most enriching relationship I've been in. His heart is so big and his thoughts are so deep, he is exciting and full of ideas, and so creative! My partner has taken steps to help himself and I'm so proud of him. People with BPD have a lot to offer, they really do!

    I hate the delusion that my friends aren't really my friends. I constantly feel abandoned and alone. I make new friends then they just vanish. I get into vicious cycles of mood swings, mostly anger. I feel like my feelings destroy everyone around me. Just venting. Trying to see a therapist to see if I have BPD because I sure do fit the mold.

    "So chances are you have at least one friend who had BPD" Bold of you to assume I have friends

    I had a girlfriend with bpd. The relationship became extremely toxic but she was the sweetest woman underneath it all. Leaving her was the hardest thing I ever had to do.
  • I suffered severe anxiety and mental disorder 18 years ago as a teenage. Got diagnosed with BPD. Spent my whole life fighting BPD. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

    I find it funny how there’s plenty of material on how to live with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and whatnot, yet when it comes to BPD, it’s always about how to deal with a person who has BPD...
  • @ltdom
    My wife has BPD. She has emotional episodes every now and then, and yeah, sometimes I bear the brunt of it. But honestly, the only thing that upsets me is that I cant help her out of it, she just has to come out of it herself, and then she feels terrible about the way she treated me. I just want her to know I'm not upset with her, I just want her to be happy.
  • @geminis1523
    Thank you for touching on the "manipulative" part. I hate how often bpd is portrayed as just trying to manipulate others. I've never actively thought or tried to make someone stay by hurting myself. I've hurt myself out of pure desperation and not knowing how else to deal. It's more so hurting myself so I dont take it out on someone else.
  • @Angelica-fd4wn
    I really love this because it doesn’t paint my disorder as something horrific and awful. I think something people forget is how strongly we love and care for others, we are probably the best friends a person can have just because of how loving, caring, giving and validating we are because of our past experiences and traumas. We feel stronger, we love harder. It’s not ALL bad, we just work very differently.
  • @mkon29
    now i need a video on “how to FIND friends if you have bpd” 👍🏻
  • @Lethe666
    PS. It’s BPD Awareness Month, so shoutout to all my BPD fellas. Stay strong.
  • @ImKhaos.
    I think it’d be really good to have a video on how to handle the responsibility of being the favourite person, as some people don’t know how sensitive it can be
  • I’m recently diagnosed with BPD. I honestly can say it feels so good to finally know why it is I keep sabotaging meaningful relationships but quite conversely I feel so sad for how awful it must be for the people who love me. It’s hard to not think vanishing is the answer in order to make life easier on the people I care about.
  • @Tsun-sweet
    That awkward moment when you've been diagnosed with BPD and everyone automatically assumes you're abusive when you tell them but you'd never hurt the people you love
  • @gavinpintro5866
    "How do you set boundaries with a loved one diagnosed with BPD?" - I would absolutely love a video on this!
  • @MaskedMadame09
    I shared this to my FB page , ppl don’t understand me and they criticize me for feeling the way I do. I’m tired of feeling guilty because of my disorder. It’s a trigger in itself.
