@lil_tachy: Replying to @9ella.ven as someone who loves many people with BPD, I think this comment is ridiculous #xyzbca #ex #Relationship #BPD #MentalHealth

Prism Pastures 💙🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ :

Mental illness is not an excuse for abuse

Skip Me🎀 Avoid Me 🌺🌹 :

BPD is more self destructive than abusive to others.

ray 🦋 :

I hate when people use mental illness as an excuse for toxic behaviour.

karine :

bpd is manageable when you have a considerate and caring partner

♡ LunrEscape ♡ :

as some one with BPD.... acting like a psycho is never an excuse.

lesbian shen qingqiu :

how come every bpd space on tiktok is so focused on enabling toxic and abusive behavior and calls you awful if you dare to suggest people should make an effort to recover and are responsible for their behavior

Bo :

My ex had BPD. He tried to kill me. My spouse has BPD. They take care of me, brush my hair, cook my dinner, give me a safe space to talk. It's almost like BPD isn't a monolith and nobody should be assuming anything about anybody based on a fucking diagnosis.

Blue Tasneem :

she has the whole textbook wtf 😭

Haven 💜 :

I'm so tired of people using mental illness to excuse abuse. How are we gonna destigmatize it while also equating it with abusive behavior?

shay. 🤍 :

AGREED - someone with CPTSD, bpd, and bipolar disorder

Panda :

I hate the victim blaming that comes with people who excuse poor behaviour simply cause hurt people hurt people Just because a majority do doesn't excuse that they shouldn't

aya 🐰 :

louder !!! my exes was always the reason to my triggers and will provoke when i’m the sweetest i ever was till those bs

Andi :

Because blaming an illness and giving them "free rein" is so people can turn around and say "this is why health mental needs to be put into asylums.

charlixcx.ca :

LOUDER we are not monsters

(＠＾◡＾) :

I really needed to hear this. Thank you

Eems :

I have bpd and very bad dissociation, and basically the whole dsm5, still my boyfriend sent me this because they don't have to fear me because of my diagnosises

𝕽𝖆𝖛𝖊𝖓🦢 :

thank fuck somebody said this. my ex did this as an excuse to manipulate hit me and emotionally abuse me.

victor 🦇 :

same thing with npd, my best friend has npd and he's never treated me wrong. my father had npd symptoms too but he was abusive on his own accord!

_therealsydney_ :

i have bpd & im hitting three years in a couple months with my partner. they bought so many books on bpd to understand me better. we’ve never raised our voices at each other let alone had an intense argument. we’ve had disagreements but we talk about them maturely with each other. i used to think relationships triggered my bpd & made it worse, but it turns out when you’re with someone who doesn’t trigger you all the time it feels like my bpd isn’t even there sometimes! i’ve never felt so safe & seen before

Spectra/Bee :

Amber❤️ :

I have bpd, I still don't scream and shout and hurt people. yeah my emotions are big but it's always directed at myself never someone else. and I would never use it as an excuse. I hate that it's so stigmatized 😭

C💖💕✨ :

BPD is one of the few mental illness diagnosis you can “recover” from. It’s IMPERATIVE that people with BPD do the work to try to recover. As someone who has been on that journey my entire life it is OUR RESPONSIBILITY to work on recovery before ever trying to date

. :

im bipolar and PTSD and im not abusive :)

Alexander Giovani :

the fact that she has bpd and DOESNT do those things?! I had pause and collect myself out of distress bc the person I'm in a relationship with who has BPD does do those things 😭

✧*̥˚Clouds *̥˚✧ :

As someone with bpd I hate people saying it’s an excuse because it also perpetuates the stereotype that bpd causes all of us to be abusive and awful
