A
INSPIRATION AND RESREACH
This project is a book made for people who suffer from borderline personality disorder (BPD).
As I know, this sort of mental issue cannot be diagnosed and patients cannot get proper treatment in China either. Thus, I want to create this work to express myself and let all of you realize you are not the only one.
BPD is a personality disorder characterized by a long-term pattern of unstable interpersonal relationships, distorted sense of self, and strong emotional reactions. Those affected often engage in self-harm and other dangerous behaviors, often due to their difficulty with returning their emotional level to a healthy or normal baseline. Somebody describe they move through the world without skin.
