can u tell i was in a bpd episode in the second pic lol

Looking back on past photos can be both nostalgic and revealing, especially when they capture moments related to mental health experiences such as Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). In my own journey, sharing pictures where I felt vulnerable during an episode helped me better understand my emotions and how I perceived myself versus how others saw me. For example, the image with the text "110 St Exit how everyone sees me" contrasts with "unfortunately how I still see myself," highlighting the internal struggle between external perception and self-image. From personal experience, posting these pictures online, especially with communities that understand alternative lifestyles and mental health challenges (#alternative, #nyc), has fostered a sense of connection and acceptance. It removes stigma and encourages honest conversations about living with BPD. While it can be difficult to revisit painful memories tied to episodes, doing so in a safe and supportive environment strengthens resilience and self-awareness. If you relate to this, consider documenting your journey—whether through photos, writing, or another creative outlet. Sharing your story can inspire others and remind you that you are not alone. Remember, self-perception can shift over time with healing and support, and embracing your authentic self is a powerful step forward.
