You're quite right @Millieme ,

 

Many see the label but forget to 'see the person'. 

 

Hence, I have found that the most helpful approach to myself (as someone with BPD), is to see me as a holistic person rather than the sum of my behaviours/misbehaviours.

 

I understand my ugly self can sometimes be set off like a beast, but as another member has mentioned in the past, it 'beauty and the beast' - there's beauty somewhere there - it just takes people to help them find it 🙂
