I'm new here!

Hi, I’m kmw19. I’m here to learn healthier ways to manage my borderline personality disorder and better understand myself. I struggle daily with relationships, friendships, intimacy, and family connections, and sometimes it feels overwhelming trying to balance my emotions and reactions.I joined this space because I want growth, support, and understanding. I want to learn how to communicate better, cope in healthier ways, and build more stable relationships while continuing to work on myself every day.I’m here to talk, listen, learn from others, and connect with people who understand the ups and downs that come with BPD. Please be kind — healing is a process, and I’m doing my best.#MightyTogether #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #BipolarDisorder #PTSD #ADHD #Anxiety #Depression

Hi, my name is EH8988eh.

#MightyTogether . If I’m being fully honest, I think I view myself like the giant in a story.
Not the beautiful girl the misunderstood one. The big, angry, almost monstrous character that people fear or misunderstand until someone finally loves them enough to see the softness underneath.

Because underneath all of it, I do have the same softness the sweet girls have. I love deeply. I care deeply. I want tenderness, romance, safety, gentleness.
But I think growing up, my mother made femininity feel unsafe for me. Her words, actions, and judgments slowly pulled it out of me until I became hard in places I was supposed to stay soft.

So now I think I move through relationships carrying both people inside me at once:
the girl who desperately wants love, and the angry giant who learned not to expect it.

And because I’m still searching for the kind of love and emotional safety I never fully received growing up, I sometimes tolerate silence, inconsistency, or emotional distance longer than I should because some part of me is still hoping to finally be chosen gently.

Hi, my name is sara_calmfamily. I'm here because six years into parenting an autistic son (Level 2), I'm still figuring out how to do this without losing myself in it.
There's so much I didn't know. That meltdowns aren't tantrums. That my son wasn't ignoring me, his working memory just couldn't hold three steps. That the "calm parenting" stuff didn't work until I built systems his brain could actually receive.
We're better now. Not fixed, never fixed, but better. I'm here to find other parents who know what this is like and to share the small things that have helped my family along the way.
If you're somewhere in the messy middle too, I'd love to hear from you.
