Marry your best friend. I do not say that lightly. Really, truly find the strongest, happiest friendship in the person you fall in love with. Someone who speaks highly of you. Someone you can laugh with. The kind of laughs that make your belly ache, and your nose snort. The embarrassing, earnest, healing kind of laughs. Wit is important. Life is too short not to love someone who lets you be a fool with them. Make sure they are somebody who lets you cry, too. Despair will come. Find someone that you want to be there with you through those times. Most importantly, marry the one that makes passion, love, and madness combine and course through you. A love that will never dilute - even when the waters get deep, and dark.

If you have any cluster b disorder then this is your reminder that you do not have to fight ableists right now, or ever, if it impacts your wellbeing. It is okay to take a breath, it is okay to simply ignore/block people if they put your mental wellbeing down. It is okay if you don't non stop reblog or post to fight the currently rising stigma for all of us. You come first, and if you feel better not engaging in this mess, don't.

Take care of yourself, i love all of you

the johnny depp & amber heard situation is going to bring a lot of harm to people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. once again, bpd is being brought into the spotlight however the terms of which it is there are negative. this will only worsen the stigma already associated with this personality disorder. please remember that ah is just one person with the disorder. she is not all of us, and most of us are not like that. the disorder we share is not the reason for her actions. two people with the same disorder can react to the same situation very differently and it depends on core characteristics and morals which are gained through environment. please, please do not hold contempt for all borderlines because of amber.

Accuse me of being heartless, ruthless & cold that’s for you.... just because you can’t see my tears doesn’t mean they aren’t there, but when you could see them you didn’t know the value of them.

No one ever sees the torment or conflict beneath the surface, I act fine so that automatically means I’m fine and I’m not struggling, how intensely I feel sometimes in my chest is the reason I’m wearing a bulletproof vest.
