How did you come across this article?

Try and have pity on these people - their own ignorance and traumatic experiences have deluded them into thinking they're entitled to publish this garbage.

Psychopathy is a different personality disorder entirely - BPD is on the other end of the spectrum. So what they're writing doesn't even make logical sense. Instead of reading accounts that have no basis in scientific understanding, turn to peer reviewed articles which detail the most up to date research on BPD.

We know that manipulation is not the basis of some of the more concerning behaviours, we know that the right amount of therapy and medication can reduce self injurous behaviour, suicidal idealization, paranoia and mood instability etc. Yes there are bad people who also happen to have personality disorders but to lump everyone into the same category is so laughably stupid that no one worth convincing otherwise would believe it anyway.

I'm sorry you've been exposed to such an article - i'm afraid the internet can be a place of such shameful behaviour...at times it seems like no one can be bothered to actually read, opinions are seen as something that must be argued instead of respected, facts get put aside in the place of personal agenda. It's so tiresome. All we can do is take as much responsibility as possible - and don't give unnecessary rise to people who there's just no hope for.

I hope you feel better soon.
