I warned you....

It's a storm coming

Tears running

Like the rain

From the pain

Thats pouring thru

Life constantly

testing the formula

For my fortitude

It's almost like the people in my life

Are cool

Until they're through

And can see through you

all the way to the disorders

and then it's almost like

they sort of orphan you

Without you

I really don't have

Much more to lose

And I've never

loved anyone more than you

And we really can't

Afford to ignore the truth

Or let bad fortune

Continue to torture you

You have always been

my whole world

My Florida moon

Used get high

hop in my spaceship

And make it

orbit you

Used to want to get old

And watch life go forward

On a wraparound porch

While temperatures reach a scorching 104

on the 4th of June

Unusual but beautiful

Like an Orchid bloom

So much more

So adored

Came a long way

From the street

sleeping in that 4 door

ford with you

stealing from Stores

cause we couldn't afford food

Needing more

But somehow finding

Comfort in just

being there for you

Today I beat a statistic, a painful and sad one. Today I turned 26 when as someone with bpd, most don't make it till 26, but I did, I'm here and I've fought thru things I still remain in shock of. I'm here to bring awareness to all who suffer with this agonizing disorder that I see you, I hear you and I'm here. We all will make it thru and to the ones who have lost someone to BPD, I'm so very sorry. This is such a milestone for me and I'm just so damn proud of myself for pushing thru and surviving. My only goal now is to LIVE. Thanks to all who have helped me get to this point. I love you all 🖤🩵🖤

-Power Abuse-

A drawing that is really close to me & my emotions. Sometimes people who are supposed to protect you, to help you, will abuse their position. Their power. You probably won´t even notice until the damage is done. I won´t call out any names, but i really hope the person knows what they did. __________________________ I wish we all can heal from the things we don´t talk about. Just know, you are not alone and if u ever need someone to talk to, dm me. I am all ears. Mental health is so important, let´s be kind to each other. __________________________ Art (c) Mine / Insomnia.

melting surroundings

as if your eyes are made of shattered glass 
and behind them there’s water and shame 
and sand and anger 
and leaves and disbelief 
and wind and disgust 
and heat and fear

circular waves of blurry edges 
never to fully form themselves to true and visible lines and borders

My therapist asked me to take a deep breath, then said my exhale wasn’t deep enough.

Been stuck in fight or flight mode for so long my body physically forgot what it felt like to breathe out.

. The six phases of a relationship with borderline personality disorder are as follows:

"Online counseling" also allows for flexibility in scheduling appointments. Many online counseling platforms offer appointments during evenings and weekends, accommodating your busy schedule. This flexibility can be particularly helpful for individuals with BPD who may experience intense emotions and fluctuating moods that can make it difficult to adhere to a regular routine.

1. Events Happen Quickly

A new relationship starts, and while it seems promising, it's frequently seen as progressing swiftly as well. But it appears that both parties share a desire to create a future together. Based on a few dates, one partner—typically the one with BPD—imagines the relationship to be wonderful. They might start to become fixated on the connection with this individual.

2. Partner with BPD becomes more sensitive

As their partner develops BPD, the BPD partner becomes more and more sensitive to everything they say or do. Negative impressions lead to concerns about abandonment and low self-worth. The BPD partner starts to convince themselves that their partner doesn't care about them.

3. BPD partner manipulates for affection

The BPD partner creates an environment in the relationship that forces the other person to show their love. By encouraging or coercing the other person to display affection, they hope to feel worthy and to end uneasiness.

4. BPD Partner Becomes Inconsistent

Friction and disagreement result from instability and inconsistent behavior. There could be more problems, which would make the same fear return stronger. Although the spouse without BPD may seem content and contented at this point, it is doubtful that their needs will be addressed. The wedge gets widened as a result.

5. Non-BPD Partner Leaves

At this stage, the non-BPD partner typically ends the union. While the partner without BPD is emotionally unresponsive, the BPD partner could make an effort to justify what happened.

6. Strong Mood Swings

The spouse with BPD could feel down and furious and start to have wild mood swings. They subscribe to their negative inner dialogue, which tells them they are worthless. People who experience acute emotional instability may act irrationally in ways that put their lives in danger or even consider suicide.

I tend to shy away from posting ish like this but it seems so applicable. If one of you sees this and is able to break the cycle before the misery, self loathing and self doubt kick in... than I've been able to do some good in this world. Be the light you want to see in the world and don't let ANYONE OR ANYTHING extinguish that.

Love life, live happy.

What are the symptoms of narcissistic abuse?

Well here are a few:

You are being covertly manipulated.

Since it is covert you are not meant to notice that you are being made to do something you otherwise would not have against your own self-interests. Since you are in this pickle that means you were not familiar with the tactics and how to identify and resist them. Therefore the easiest way to tell is to ask yourself some of these questions.

Your mood depends entirely on the state of the relationship, and you are experiencing extreme highs and lows.

Your joy at finding love has turned into the fear of losing it. Your feelings have moved from happiness and euphoria to anxiety, sadness, and depression.

You're unhappy in the relationship and uncertain about it much of the time, yet you dread losing it because of you're blissfully happy with it every now and then

You feel like you're responsible for ruining the best thing that ever happened to you, but you're not sure how

Your relationship feels very complex, although you don't know why. When talking to others about it, you might find yourself saying, “It’s hard to explain. It is really complicated”

You continually obsess about the relationship, analyzing every detail repeatedly in a desperate attempt to “figure it out”. You talk about all the time to anyone that will listen. It doesn’t do any good.

You never feel sure of where you stand with your partner, which leaves you in a perpetual state of uncertainty and anxiety

You frequently ask your partner if something is wrong. It feels as if something is wrong but you don’t know what it is

You are frequently on the defensive. You feel misunderstood and have the need to explain and defend yourself.

You seem to have developed a problem with trust, jealousy, insecurity, and overreaction during this relationship which your partner has pointed out to you on many occasions.

You feel ongoing anger or resentment for someone

You have become a detective. You scour the web and social media for information about your partner. You feel a need to check their web history, texts or emails. When they are not home you feel the need to verify their whereabouts.

You feel you don’t truly know how to make your partner happy. You try hard but nothing seems to work, at least not for long. You used to make them very happy and you are not sure what has changed.

Expressing negative thoughts and emotions feels restricted or even forbidden, so you try to keep all those things to yourself. You feel frustrated about not being able to talk about the things that are bothering you.

You don't feel good about yourself like you did before the relationship. You feel less confident, less secure, less intelligent, less sane, less trusting, less attractive or in some way “less than” you were before.

You always feel you are falling short of your partner's expectations. You feel inadequate.

You often feel guilty and find yourself apologizing a lot. You continually try to repair the damage you believe you have caused. You blame yourself for your partner pulling away from you. You can’t understand why you keep sabotaging the relationship.

You carefully control your words, actions, and emotions around your partner to keep them from withdrawing their affection again

At times you erupt like an emotional volcano filled with anger, frustration, and even hostility. You have never acted this way before and vow it will stop, but no matter how hard you try, it keeps happening.

You do things you are not really comfortable with or that go against your morals, values, limits or boundaries to make your partner happy and keep the relationship intact.

You feel your partner needs to dominate the relationship

You feel your partner does not understand your needs in the relationship.

You find yourself trying to explain basic human emotions and concepts to and adult. You feel the need to make them understand.

You feel your giving nature is being exploited or that you are being taken advantage of

You feel taken for granted

You feel you need them far more than they need you

You feel trapped with no clear way out.

You find yourself checking with your partner and unable to trust yourself or your judgment when making decisions.

You feel they have more control over your emotions and feelings than you do

You feel something bad will happen if you don’t do what they want

No matter how much you do for them they make you feel like you haven’t done enough.

They intimidate you with their mood or anger.

You feel you can’t do anything to change them

Even when you do please them it doesn’t last long

You feel you are working way harder at the relationship than they are.

Other Common symptoms and things to look for:

You find yourself isolated from friends and family and support to appease or please them.

You find yourself more and more emotionally dependent on them for validation.

You seem to be expected to do all the chores and housework/cooking

They want to be served

They are hypocrites

They won’t apologize or accept accountability. For those variants that can, it is very infrequent and you have a hard time accepting it because it does not feel sincere (because it isn’t).

Their actions don’t match their words

The same problems come up over and over. It goes in circles. Nothing is ever resolved or forgiven

They act differently around others than with you. Like two different people.

They treat you like a child.

At the beginning of the relationship you were never apart, and you felt they were your “soul mate”

You are constantly drained and exhausted

Trauma Bonded

You find yourself putting up with things you never would have in any other relationship but cannot detach or leave and so find yourself unable to hold your boundaries so they stampede over them and chip away at them.

In other words, you are addicted and trauma bonded. You can answer yes to the questions I went over in this answer:

William Gorder's answer to How can you tell if you are trauma bonded to your Narcissist?

PTSD/CPTSD

You are suffering for the symptoms PTSD or CPTSD that I covered in this answer:

William Gorder's answer to What are the symptoms of PTSD when healing from narcissistic abuse?

You feel an “Intense” love or chemistry with them, that keeps you from leaving.

You have confused love/intimacy with addiction/intensity/abuse.

Check this answer here:

William Gorder's answer to How can you tell the difference between a traumatic bond and being in love with a narcissist?

You find yourself implementing defense mechanisms like:

Cognitive Dissonance:

Through your unconscious mind, you justify doing things you otherwise would have considered wrong, make something seem more or less important than it really is, create new reasons for doing something that goes against better judgment and denies, ignores or avoids information that conflicts with already accepted beliefs. This is a defense mechanism for handling trauma to cope with restoring some semblance of equilibrium to your life.

Magical Thinking and Pollyannaism

Despite rationale or evidence to the contrary, your naive childlike mind wishes to have a happy ending so you find yourself thinking things like:

There must be some good in them, nobody is all bad

They cannot possibly be that manipulative

They are just a product of their upbringing

They can change

If I love them better it will get better

They don’t want to hurt me, they just need help

They didn’t mean it

Things will get better

You show symptoms of NVS (Narcissistic Victim Syndrome). Some of these may not manifest as noticeably until discard.

William Gorder's answer to How do CPTSD and Narcissistic Abuse Victim Syndrome differ? Also, how do their treatment options differ?

I think this answer has gotten long enough. Thanks for the A2A

Stripped down is where I lay, finding who I am. Life has a way of taking you from what you are, destroying you, breaking you down...uplifting you, enlightening you and then bringing you back to who you always were; just better, wiser, older and healed from the battles that were signed before birth in contract. I'm proud of who I've become✨️ 🖤♥️ Alchemy is truly a beautiful thing~

🖤♥️✨️
