Laugh at BPD

OK!! right. im sick of BPD! u know what i mean by those 4 words.... I want to laugh and celebrate the funny side of BPD instead of sitting in the $#%^ part of BPD. Anyone got any funny stories about things theyve done on impulse? Dumbass things doctors have said to u? Things that sucked at the time but are now funny? I dont want us to always be seen as miserable people so c'mon, ANYTHING!!!
Like the time you were getting tackled by the cops and u kicked several of them in the nuts and u could practically SEE their balls shrival up as they went down. (yes...it did happen to me..wasnt funny at the time..)

I will be very disappointed if no-one replies coz im sick of the sad stereotypes we get. I want to prove them wrong.

Well, when I was admitted to the hospital during my one suicide attempt, the paramedic in the ambulance threw a needle at the garbage that he had been trying to put an IV in with. It bounced back out and stabbed him. They made fun of him in the hospital for it.

Later, everyone in the psyche ward, nurses and patients alike, kept telling me they wanted to take me home with them. lol They apparently weren't used to 18 year olds in the adult ward, so I was "soooo young and little" to them.

lol nice one. I would have laughed at the ambo too. Bet he felt like a dick! I was first diagnosed one month after i turned 18 so same thing happened to me when I was in the psych wards. Some of the other patients even tried to mother me...eeekkk..

Well one time after a suicide attempt/gesture after they pumped my stomach and I woke up in the hospital, I decided at one point to jump out of bed and try to "make a run for it". I made it out of the room and half way down the hall when one of the nurses (male) managed to grab me from behind. So I struggled with him and managed to get to some table that was bolted to the wall and clung to it so he couldn't pull me off (the other nurses were watching this but none of them tried to help their comrade).

Anyway so there he was trying to pull me off and there I was trying to kick him off and after a couple of minutes of this I started calming down and became aware that he seemed to be rather enjoying this (either that or he had an otoscope in his pocket ) and upon realizing this I started rather enjoying it too … so I told him calmly that it was really sweet of him to try to stop me from running off and killing myself and all but that I'll be fine for one thing and that me killing myself was none of his business anyway… and he replied, also calmly, that there was no need for me to try to kill myself cuz life is beautiful and so on and so forth – and we started having a whole argument about it, in friendly tones, with me still clinging on to a table and him still clinging on to me with his thing pressed against me and a bunch of nurses standing around watching this.

The whole thing lasted for several minutes during which I found out it's somehow possible to feel suicidal, turned on and amused all the same time…

BAAHAHAHAHAHA!! seriously that made me LOL i cant remember how many times i have decided to 'make a run for it' but the guards catching me have never been nice I cant belive the nurses just stood there and watched lol. slackos. I did manage to escape once tho. I was in the ED with a bunch of other patients and we started getting along really well so i was like "lets get the ###$ outta here I got an escape plan.." so we serveyed the nurses activity through the door to our freedom and we learnt which ones didnt shut the door behind them but just let it swing closed, so when we got a nurse who walked out and left the door to close on it own we ran up, ripped it open and started running for our lives. So here we all are, bunch of mental patients bolting out towards the hospital carpark in our hospital clothes with a guards on a motorbikes close behind. We got caught but I think they were so stunned we escaped they didnt even bother tackling us, they just said "you must walk back voluntarily. lets go." wtf?

This is obviously not funny.

My friend (who's a diagnosed BPD) went through a rough breakup with his woman.
He rented my basement, one day after work, I wanted to share some good news with him and went to his room.
As I came in I saw him standing on a chair, he had entangled a rope to the ceiling and as I entered he 'jumped'.

What happened was that the entire ceiling fell down on him. We both laughed intensely. I told him, 'take it as a sign dude, not your time yet'

He went to therapy and doing better today.

omg... is it bad that i laughed? coz i did... i no its not funny that he tried to jump but well u no... it is funny lol nice one. glad hes doing better now and that he hasnt had any more ceilings fall on him!

Oh $#%^.

Well it's good to hear he's doing better now.

When I was hospitalized a group of us in the smoking room decided to sing a rendition of 'the drugs don't work' while queuing up for meds..

If the above stories are your idea of "laugh at BPD", then I am amused. Reading these stories doesn't make me see the laugh-able side of BPD (which I am assuming was the intention), but surely I am laughing at you all right at this moment

You are all welcome to the AsPD forum where you can pretend to be psychopaths, while you relate such stories. If this is BPD humor, it surely isn't less twisted than us psychopaths and anti-socials.
