Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness Month

Just something I threw together in light of the fact that today's the first day of BPD Awareness Month. I hope to do some better designs before the month's over, but that depends on various factors.

I was diagnosed with BPD last year. It's a hateful disease, the way it undermines a person's sense of identity and corrodes their relationships. You feel like you are made of glass, and struggle to keep from clinging to anyone who seems like they could be a lifeline. There's quite a strong stigma against people with BPD, too--they're often seen as manipulative and leech-like. But they're still human beings. They still have hearts and souls, they can still dream and love.
