I don't have BPD and I was practicing mindfulness before I even started therapy. In fact, it was that practice that LED me to therapy.

And T has worked with me on mindfulness for years, to help me be grounded and here.

I am in a meditation group with many, many people, and I don't think anyone in there has a psych diagnosis at all.

Mindfulness is not about what diagnosis we have/don't have. It's really about practicing being in the present moment.

I don't think BPD carries the stigma that it used to at all...no matter what our diagnosis, we're still us. You're still you, diagnosis or not, mindfulness or not. Sometimes it helps me to remember that.
