    its very real. My principle (a 72 year old educator) sent me to counseling after telling me, a fifteen year old boy, “there is something wrong with you”, however when i got to counseling i passed with flying colors. I legitimately thought i was normal for the longest time.

    Honesty will take us a long way. Allistic people treat honesty like a two sided blade, but if you can find somebody who will let you know when youre being shitty and you can legitimately look up too (not a fucked up attachment syndrome where they’re perfect) then itll make all the difference.

    oh and medication. Find a good psych, theres no shame in it and it beats self harm lol

    its true. as a person with cptsd (bpd) ive mainly had to resort to giving myself the therapy i need through reading, being mindful every moment of the day (i legit have conversations with myself in real time to decide-what i want to say- vs the impact it will have), and psychiatric medication. The real difficult thing is getting the said person with BPD to WANT to change, and i mean with a desperate fervor, otherwise therapy is basically a silly talk session for me where i jab at the therapist to make them say what i want them to say.

    too add an analogy to this, its like building a car with Kinex building sticks, painting it over and making it look like a normal vehicle but driving it is a whole different issue. you cant change the structure under the paint, but you can slowly reinforce every bit of it until its ready to drive on the freeway.

    would be great if you told us how much it costed and how much you brought in hourly. i wanna sympathize but then i remember you could rent a studio in the 70s-80s for like 300 dollars month. i probably could have bought a house with a missing arm and working 30 hours a week.















  • i second this idea. i think his thoughts at best are optimistic in believing that is a reaction to conditions. As a person of color i can say with absolute confidence that this level of hate and lack of empathy is more than just a reaction to financial disparity. this is brain washing at its finest, a long term game plan to break down what it means to be a person. this is manipulation of generational hatred and scapegoating different cultures to take advantage of the sabotaged educational system. its hard to argue that this is a working class issue when literal factual information is disputed by these people. additionally i find it hard to argue that it isnt a cult when you say the bourgeoisie’s interest are in line with working class conservatives, because you could also say they line up with the KKK and last time i checked it is in fact a cult.
