BPD specialists told me this for years, turns out it was autistic cognitive rigidity which is why DBT didn’t help.

Feelings are always true. Our interpretation of those feelings are not

If you’re having a relationship with someone with BPD, you’ll see it’s like the seventh level of hell.

in my DBT group they'd say "sometimes your feelings are valid, but they're not rational" and its so accurate

y'all can't compare dating someone with BPD to being in hell and also dismiss the severity of our disorder, when we say it's bad it's ignored

My therapist said we don’t get to pick our feelings they just come to us. But we don’t have to live there

The most important for me was “your feelings are valid, but your reactions are not”

I feel like a healthier wording is "your feelings aren't THE TRUTH" instead of "your feelings aren't true", because feelings are true feelings, even if they aren't accurate to the truth of the situation

We need to stop using the word "valid" because it still carries a connotation of approval.

I had an ex that would bring that to my attention by saying “ you state your thoughts as FACTS, instead of asking” and this is 10000% true. But I feel things so fiercely that they feel true regardless of outside facts

A therapist told me “Your core feelings are valid but the meaning you are making of them may not be.”

Daniel James OConnel :
Feeling scared because you believe there is a monster under the bed doesn’t make the monster real, you are still scared - it is valid that it’s happening - but the reasoning for the fear is invalid, because it’s untrue, therefore the feeling is both not real and real at the same time. This really messes with people, because the only way to check it is to investigate it, which requires seeking evidence outside of the feeling, and into facts.

Our feelings are valid but yes they aren’t always true. Our feelings lie to us all the time.
