Writing and talking about my life with a diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder.
Hi! My name's Rosie.
I write and talk about my life with a diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). As you might know, BPD is one of the most stigmatised, misunderstood and controversial mental health diagnoses.
Through writing and talking, I share what it feels like to be me— a person who feels emotions intensely and cares deeply about others and my relationships.
Many moons ago, I won a Mind Media Award for my blog. After that, I became an author of two books about living life with this diagnosis.
One of my main aims as a writer is to affirm who you are. Feeling intensely and caring immensely about your connections with others is a deeply valid way of existing and being in this world.
My first book, Talking About BPD, is a positive, hopeful look at living a fulfilling living life with an often stigmatised diagnosis. I share my experiences of painful, intense emotions and how I've used Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and more to make my life calmer and happier.
My books care about how you feel and your sense of belonging. They are empathetic, warm-hearted books that are different to the judgmental titles you may have previously read.
