  • I think a better way to put my question is: do you think yo need help? You said ASPD is bad. Do you agree, independently of what others say, that what you are is bad and needs to be fixed?

    That’s the conflict I still don’t know the answer. If those diagnosis are as real as a broken bone, is it a disease that needs healing or a personality trait?

    From everything you told me it seems to me you think it is something that needs healing, and you seem to be more rational than I am, so your opinion is being very useful and important. One thing is a “normal” person who has nothing to lose saying we need help, the other is someone else being on this side of the bridge.

    I just want the answer to be “no, they are wrong and they just don’t like that which is different”, but I don’t know if my wish is the reality.


  • You have a very admirable take on all these questions. It’s hard to believe you have a disorder.

    And on that note, do you think you do? From the comments it seems like you agree you have a disorder that needs fixing and is bad, as you put it.

    I have a hard time with these diagnostics that seem to change a lot (a broken bone had always been a broken bone and needs healing). How far are things just different perspectives or just different personalities or disorders?

    I have many of the same behaviors as people from many “disorders”, and also from the same zodiac sign. If I changed them I would just be another person, not necessarily more healthy. And the same with everyone.

    I’m not sure what I’m getting at. It’s just that you have a much more controversial diagnosis and you seem more mentally stable than the vast majority I hear talking. It makes me question these diagnosis more than I do with myself. But then again, you seem more rational than I am, and with the least socially acceptable diagnosis and you seem to agree with it, so I think it’s just me making excuses for my disorder and it all makes sense…


  • How do you feel about society’s view on your diagnosis?

    I’m told I may have bpd and I feel horrible about it, I know bpd people are hated and the support are for people who have to deal with them. However everywhere I read your diagnosis is seen as the worst. Basically looks like a name society came up for people they hate.

    I’m not sure if my reading is correct. How do you think people see it and how do you feel about it? Do you agree with whatever the general opinion is?

    Reading here it seems to be even worse than i thought. If you tell people about they will think you are a murdered/sadist/demon. Just the name they gave you must be harder than whatever symptoms you have…
