How do I get over my prejudice towards people with BPD? I have several developmental/mental disorders myself and did see traits of the condition but don't meet the clinical threshold for it, but yet I have nothing but contempt for them.When I was in my mid teens I was groomed by someone with BPD over discord who emotionally abused me constantly before I got help to shut them out for good, and more recently there was this deeply bitter and hateful woman who I was nothing but civil towards who straight up said she viewed me as less than human for being a cishet white guy, and would at one moment treat me with kindness but at the next hurl slurs at me and tell me to kill myself for getting facts wrong or being overly excited about something I was passionate about.Needless to say, I steer clear of people who mention they have BPD now. I've genuinely had better experiences with people who've claimed ASPD. I've read some literature that says Autistic people like myself and BPD people just don't mix because our genuine social awkwardness gets perceived as intentional malice.It just becomes exhausting to walk on eggshells all the time, but at the same time, I try to be empathetic (maybe to my detriment). How can I get over my negative outlook?
>>34524669Just don't interact with BPD people. And not because of your autism, just everyone should avoid them. There is very good reason why a trait of BPD is an inability to maintain relationships
>>34524669>Needless to say, I steer clear of people who mention they have BPD now. I've genuinely had better experiences with people who've claimed ASPD.kek, same.People with PDs can project their past significant relationships onto others a lot. Nothing you can do, it has to be self-work. If you want to stay chill, maintain a distance, and don't let them get attached to you. Stay away.
>>34524669>How do I get over my prejudice towards people with BPD?Bro why would you want to? Why would you ignore your experiences with a PERSONALITY DISORDER? These are broken people and it isn't your job to fix them. It isn't wise to pretend they are not pathological and dangerous/toxic. It's a good thing you know they're fucked up. Stay away. It isn't your problem nor is it worth your time and sanity to cater to these loons.
> BPD> not clarifying if you mean bipolar disorder or borderline personality disorder
>>34524908Lel nice b8 m8Regardless both should be avoided like the plague.
>>34524669BPD bitch here, first off sorry to hear about all your negative experiences.Yeah from my experience I struggle with my autistic friends a lot, like a lot a lot sometimes. Very much doable if you think it's worth the effort, but there's always going to be at least a little bit of tension between you two if you are an autistic person who masks a lot. Not being able to properly read someones emotions feels like a threat, and unhealed people go into this really bitchy defensive mode out of self preservation.Anyway just like any kind of person, there's no need to be outwardly hostile to any kind of person. Being wary is fine, you don't have to be best friends with everyone, especially if you don't think it's worth the effort. Also anyone online (especially discord dot com) who is overly open about having BPD is to be avoided lol. It's the kind of person who WANTS to have BPD and will do anything to come off as menhera as possible.
