I'm going to add another one. When people find out I have BPD they treat me like I'm some kind of monster. In fact I am a giant sweetheart, but some people don't even give me a chance.
People also think that because I'm bipolar my moods change on a dime all day long. Nope.
People see a label and assume everyone is exactly the same when there are different shades of the same illness.
