When the Spiral Comes
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder hasn't been easy. In reality, I should say that knowing I have BPD is a struggle. Some people have said to me before, "You're the same person you were before you found out. Nothing has changed." But if you're someone like me or live with another disorder, you know that that's simply not the case. It feels as though my entire world has changed into a strange new map in a video game. I liked the first map I was playing in. I knew what I did at that time and, though it was confusing and scary at times, I knew how to navigate. I knew the safe places to take cover from the enemy. This new map, this new chapter in my life, though the same, is a brand new world. It's full of stigma, people who don't understand, and even more questioning who I am as a person.
