as someone who has experienced abuse from someone with a personality disorder, it's actually incredibly easy to not dehumanize everyone with a personality disorder. i've seen people do borderline eugenic rhetoric surrounding people who have npd, aspd, bpd or other personality disorders, and then be like "I'M allowed to say these things because i'm a survivor, and if you disagree you are hurting abuse victims."
and frankly? i'm tired of it. as an abuse survivor i'm here to say that you're NOT allowed to turn into a fucking eugenicist the moment you're hurt by someone with a personality disorder.
does hurting and belittling other people who happen to have the same disorder as your abuser, people that are already suffering and that are already looked down on by society, bring you any healing? does it bring you peace?
Being hurt by someone isn't an excuse to hurt others that you feel justified in lashing out on. you're literally in control of your own actions,
you may claim to be making a safe space for abuse survivors, but i will never feel any solidarity with you, and i ESPECIALLY don't feel safe with you considering i might have a personality disorder.
you are excluding a large amount of abuse survivors in the name of "advocacy". a lot of people with personality disorders developed one or multiple due to heavy abuse. in the aim of creating a safe space, you are excluding the ones who need a safe space the most.

i think it’s interesting that uneducated people will go “how do you have that many disorders???” when talking about personality disorders. they don’t understand most people have personality disorders actually have two to three because of the high comorbidity of them all.
NPD and BPD have a 40% comorbidity rate and BPD and DPD have a 30%. like that’s pretty high in the grand scheme of things???
trauma disorders tend to come in stacks… it’s weird people don’t realize that.

Unclear instructions that you have to "just figure out" in work/school environments are a legitimate accessibility issue and I wish more educators/employers saw it that way.
You are making your course/workplace completely inaccessible for people with SAD, AVPD, DPD, ASD, ADHD, etc.

The thing is that if there was any positive resources for Personality Disorders, we would be able to get better. Instead, if we look up “narcissist help”, articles come up with “how to destroy a narcissist” and “they’re self absorbed, entitled and manipulative”. You look up your disorder and you just get things that articles on how other people can destroy your mental health, just because you have your condition, because of the trauma that caused you to have this personality disorder. It’s like they don’t want us to get better, they just want us to know how we’re horrible. They need people to demonise us, they want us to be destroyed. They make sure that everything hurts us. They expect us to recover then stigmatise the things we are trying to fix. That doesn’t convince us to get better, that convinces us to become the worst version of ourselves.

cluster a and cluster c culture is constantly being left out of conversations about personality disorders while still facing intense stigma and social isolation for your symptoms :/

curious about something
feel free to share your PD and your parents' PD/suspected PD if you feel comfortable. i just thought this poll might be an interesting idea considering PDs are believed to be born from a mix of genetic and environmental factors. personally, i have a mix from all the clusters and neither of my parents were diagnosed with a PD, but i've gone over the BPD criteria with my mother and we both heavily suspect she has it. we also suspect my father had NPD, but i am admittedly less confident about that one as he had other diagnosed mental health issues that his symptoms could be attributed to.

Anyone with personality disorders willing to share difficulties in relationships/intimate connections?? Asks, comments, rbs??
-Cluster b (borderline) trying to get to know more about the other clusters and PDs because you never really understand until you talk w em I find.
For me personally the main trigger is just fear of abandonment and emotional permanency. Which literally categorizes bpd but idk if other clusters are as interpersonally defined and recognizable as b???
You're all valid! This is a safe space correct me if I said anything wrong.

people with personality disorders are still capable of love, affection and caring about others, but it's okay to struggle with those things.
you aren't evil for not feeling love, hating showing or receiving affection or not caring. it doesn't make you a bad person, or less deserving of respect.
