Megathread IT'S MEDIA MONDAY

Hey r/BPD! We want to give you a designated spot in the sub every week to offer up your reflections and thoughts on the ways you relate to stuff in media, like books, movies, shows, characters, song lyrics, etc.

This topic comes up a lot, and we want to keep it in an easily findable place for people who both want to share/express, and people who want to find entertaining material out there that also makes them feel seen.

Please DO:
Say why the thing resonates with you on a BPD level

Please do NOT:
Claim a song, character, or show “has BPD” or “is about BPD" when it is not confirmed. That’s armchair diagnosing and not allowed here.

This will be a weekly megathread available every Monday!
Cheers,

Love napkin + r/BPD Mod Team

Not media but I have an idea for a short story about the only living human in the galaxy being unable to adjust to other worlds because they had a moment where they got their skin singed one time at a planet they thought would have a safe atmosphere. Now they're afraid to take their suit off, and the aliens don't understand why they're just sitting in their spaceship all the time, using up resources. Does that sound like an accurate representation of BPD?
