It is clearly well-known that disclosing about mental sickness is such a taboo especially in our malay society. I myself am still battling with stigmatization as I have faced it for quite some time. I must say that most people judge me in so many ways, to a point it hurts my emotions. Yet, God does have His mercy on me - I am lucky enough to be surrounded by those people who want to help me, or at least, try to understand my sickness.

BPD or Borderline Personality Disorder is marked by extremes in emotionality, most notably affecting social relationships with loved ones and in the workplace. Emotional dysregulation, self-harm, depression and suicidality — these are the markers of BPD, a deeply challenging disorder for both sufferers and loved ones. BPD is the third leading killer of women aged 15 to 24, and one out of 10 adults with BPD die by suicide.

As for now, I do think I'm making a progress in my therapy although of course, at times, I have my own melt down and my mind explodes out of craziness.

Besides having an intention to spread this mental awareness, I merely want to express my gratitude of having my family and friends who would stick around me. Thank you :')
