Using! I've been hesitating to put stamps like this on my page, but I'm tired of having to hide it or talk about it without directly mentioning my disorders. I just want people to know why I may react as I do and that it's safe to talk to me about these things.

Hope you don't mind me asking but to bpd individuals; are there times where you feel nothing ? If so, for how long ?
I saw an article on how feeling nothing is linked to repressed depression and is often seen in bpd, so I'm curious.

Everyonce and a while I feel kinda numb, emotionless, but then I get really angry because normal people arent supposed to feel like this and then im just plain angry.

this is about a week late but i was stalking the comments (and getting rly mad at some of them on other stamps LMFAO)
but yeah, disassociating (or feeling numb) is a common thing in BPD. we disassociate as a way to cope with our extreme emotions, cause sometimes feeling nothing is better than feeling everything turned up to 11. we don't necessarily control when we disassociate, it just happens as a way to keep us safe!!

Cute design, but bad concept.Β
"Let's show off our mental disorders! Maybe we'll get attention!"
π: 0 β©: 14
I think it's more about raising awareness and showing that people you'd view as normal experience mental disorders. A lot of times people imagine the mentally ill as insane criminals or sobbing recloses, and thinking like that makes if VERY scary to be diagnosed with a mental illness, or have a friend/family member be diagnosed. It's easier to accept and acknowledge a mental illness if you can think "hey, that artist I follow on DeviantArt is mentally ill, and they're still a kind considerate person." than thinking "didn't that guy who ate someone on a greyhound Buss have this?" I'm personally very open with my mental illnesses because I don't want people to view them as something that dooms you to a life of misery or violence because it doesn't.Β
Of course, I can't speak for everyone, I'm sure some people's intention is to get attention, but it still raises awareness and lowers the stigma. (unless they're using it to scare people and be "edgy" but that's a whole different issue)

Hello Doolingloser I have just seen a recent comment of your on one of yoursβs and to let you know that nobody give a shit about youβr supposing depression you got form art
π: 0 β©: 0
As my name states, my lot in life is to fix stupid.
That being said, you are patient zero.
I am unequipped.
The sheer amount of ignorance exuded from this single comment is too much for me.

I've been reading the replies to your comment and the things you've said about seeking for attention and not having found justification for people putting the stamp on their page. But at the end of the day, I'm not going to be as kind as the other people who've commented because I truly believe this reply, and the replies you've given below, are the EXACT reason why the majority of mental illness sufferers don't come clean about their problems, to the point where it hurts them.
It is NOT for attention. It is NOT for pity. Trust me, people who suffer from ACTUAL mental illnesses do not need some fucker's "i'm so sorry you're going through this..." to make them feel better. Cause in the end, it doesn't bloody matter.Β
The reason why we put these stamps on our page is because of comments like yours. People who delegitimize the pain others go through when they have a mental illness. We put it on our page to NORMALIZE the conversation of out pain, because more often than not, sufferers have usually gone through some kind of trauma or abuse to break their minds into developing this shit.
I'm an example, I'm very open about my problems because I come from an extremely abusive, middle eastern background where mental illnesses are NEVER talked about, never discussed, and if they were, GODDAMN you were shut down, beat and silenced. It only made me worse, to the point where I was thrown into an asylum within a month or two of being in America. That's why I think your comment is utter bullshit-- if someone breaks their leg, everyone says "Oh, I'm so sorry," they write on their cast, they say how they can't imagine how much it hurts, they hold their stuff for them, they help them down the stairs. Someone with a mental illness, such panic disorder, BPD, PTSD, DID can't? And if we do, we're looking for attention. News flash: we talk about the problems we go through because they're OUR PROBLEMS, they HURT US, and we have ALL OF THE RIGHT IN THE WORLD TO EXPRESS IT.
So by all means, little girl, if someone wants to speak about their fucking mental health, be vocal about it, encourage other people to be open too and hopefully get help, then let them. We don't need your approval, nor do we need to give you "justification" for talking about our own problems.
And by the way, you're no better. You say you don't "talk about your mental health" but in your second goddamn journal, you bring up your depression and your lack of desire to draw or some bullshit. I could go on for hours about how I, as a DIAGNOSED, CURRENTLY RECOVERING ABUSE VICTIM, don't 'believe' your disorder and think it was "for attention," but I won't.
Because I'm better than you.

Or maybe we will be taken seriously, instead of listening to people judging us like you?

It's not for attention, it's made so people can let others know that they have this disorder and it affects the way they act sometimes.
Did you write this comment for attention? What do you mean by "bad concept" anyway?Β
π: 1 β©: 0
BUT SERIOUSLY GUYS, why are you all replying to my comment? XD I didn't say anything more special than the other "negative" comments about this stamp,and just so you know, I stand firm in my opinions, and not a single person has given me a good justification thus far.
π: 0 β©: 1
you...made the comment. its on the top of the comment string. we can reply. you posted it and didn't say "DONT REPLY" or whatever.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
I did not. Apprently, you love twisting words don't you? Now it's hard to take you seriously. But if I still don't make myself clear, everyone is welcome to reply. But why on earth has everyone taken notice to my comment? Oh well, I like the attention nonetheless. Β
Also, it was mainly supposed to be for anyone who wants to reply next, for them to leave a good justification. So far, I have not heared a single good justification on why you have to use the stamp. I don't want anyone repeating what has already been said by 10 different people. Im trying to keep an open-mind when hearing the reasons, but I guess there's just no good reasons?
π: 0 β©: 1
i guess not lol
π: 0 β©: 0
i actually do it to warn people because sometimes my disorders like DID or BPD or anxiety or depression make me seem unfriendly or unwelcoming and i dont want to loose any of my friends because of it. plus i always forget to take my pills and i dont even like takin em so sometimes my disorders get pretty bad.
π: 0 β©: 1
Why do you need to put a stamp on your page?
π: 0 β©: 1
i just explained why are you blind
plus its not even on my page its in my about
π: 0 β©: 1
No, you did not explain why you need a STAMP specifically instead of telling your friends you have BPD. I'm not some close-minded moron,thank you.I just get annoyed, because everyone I've seen who uses this stamp blames their actions on their mental disorder.Β I have a mental illness as well,and I understand that BPD is different than mine, but I don't blame my actions on it. Your mental illnesses is honestly the poorest excuse I've ever heared.
π: 0 β©: 1
MY GUY strangers visit my profile too. people who may possibly want to talk to me, comission me or watch me. i dont use my mental illnesses to get outof things, but they are the reason sometimes happen. thats why theyre not healthy to have and thats why some ppl have to be warned. im 4 different people and if one of them wants to front and they say something mean and make me loose a friend, im going to blame that on my DID. not myself.
π: 1 β©: 1
Wow. Just wow. Since you're uh... 4 different people.... Let's agree to disagree and settle it at that.
π: 0 β©: 1
i have DID. im 4 people. sure.
π: 0 β©: 0
Or you know, tell people that you have a disorder that makes it very hard to stay friends with people so that they can take caution in what they say and make sure that they know that bad moods aren't personal?
π: 0 β©: 1
That's just stupid. If you loose friends,that's your fault, and you shouldn't blame it on your mental disorder. Heck, I have a mental disorder,but I don't blame my actions on it. I'm not blind, so I willing to accept its my fault. I don't understand why everyone is trying to argue with me. Β
π: 0 β©: 0
i get why you might think its a bad concept but people might put their mental disorders on their page mostly because the disorder will affect how they behave n stuff, yknow what i mean?
my bpd is self diagnosed, however i self diagnosed it because my doctor and the counsellor i use to see believe its very very likely i might be suffering from it, the same with panic disorder
does that make sense?
π: 0 β©: 1
I understand completely. I don't support self-diagnosed without seeing a doctor. Sadly, I'm sure 80% of people who use this stamp haven't consulted a doctor at all.Β
π: 0 β©: 1
yea i get what your saying
but i think some people use self diagnosing as a last resort if theyre in an enviroment where they dont have the money to see a doctor
im not sure how it works in the united states because im from the UK
π: 0 β©: 0
everyone fucking says this and i just think
"well i mean i'd want to know if i wanted to be their friend"
