Hello, I'm diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. After having a hard time for a long time, I've found myself finally having reached a point in my life where I'm truly happy and coping in a way that I'm proud of :)

Hey!

I've been diagnosed with autism (aspie type) last year, but it didn't explain everything, so my therapist explored my mind a bit more and that's how I discovered Autism and ASPD (sociopathy in my case) can be comorbidities. I didn't know, but it can occur (some symptoms also overlap).

When it comes to my own experiences, I consider my PD like a blessing. It balances my autism quite well. It's an evolutive disorder that happens when you have genetic predispositions, and it worsened following trauma, but now I had the choice to get a treatment or not and I refused. I like my restricted emotional spectrum better. It gives me more peace of the mind tbh, and allows me to distance myself from emotional situations (this and also because I don't want to ingest medication to get zombified).

I admit it's more of a handicap for people around me than myself. It is, apparently, pretty obvious I am detached from my friends and family, and I lost most of my friends because of this. People are made uneasy by this. But I don't realy care so... I'm fine!
