WHY DONT WE HAVE A CHAT FOR BPD?
Hey @EmmaSwan18, by chat do you mean a 1-1 listener-chat topic?
If so, you can browse for listeners who are either experienced or comfortable supporting, and select the topic as "Borderline (BPD) here: https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/
You can also check out forums here: https://www.7cups.com/forum/personalitydisorders/BorderlinePersonalityDisorder_326/
Feel free to ask, if you're looking for something else as well!💛

@EmmaSwan18
I hear you, Emma! Sending you a safe hug and a smile :) Platy
@EmmaSwan18
Hello there EmmaSwan18!
Do you mean chat room discussions about BPD?
Sending you good vibes!
@EmmaSwan18 @MeaningfulSilence
Thank you for that suggestion, Emma. I will make sure to add a BPD-focused chat to the Calendar in the future.
And by the way- Do you have time to attend Wednesday discussion sessions from 3:30 - 4:30 EST? Yesterday, we had quite a few guests talking about their experiences with BPD. (:
@Gilbird
Hi Gil, any update on when the discussion will be next? I read that it will be on Wednesday but that the time would be different after Sept 13, so now. :) Platy
@cyanPlatypus6370 @EmmaSwan18
Absolutely, I will confirm after it's submitted to that Calendar. But for now, the next discussion will be held from 4:30 - 5:30 PM EST on September 20th, focusing on Avoidant Personality Disorder. I will also make an official post and tag you. For the next few weeks, this will be the new time.
Additionally, the upcoming discussion on September 27th (4:30 - 5:30 PM EST) will focus on Borderline Personality Disorder.
Hi again Gil :) thanks for the update! Just wondering, I'm pretty sure you mean to write/state the time as 430-530 EDT as most of America and North America (and Europe, I think) are IN Daylight Saving Time now.
Perhaps we could make it easier by just putting "7cups time," or "ET" for Eastern Time and then that would signify Eastern Time (like NYC or Boston or Miami!) for Eastern Daylight Time (summer) or Eastern Standard Time (winter). That is for the northern hemisphere - oh dear...
Who knows perhaps we'll get congress to do away with the changing of the time twice a year! (Probably wishful thinking, but you know... one can hope!)
Thank you for your leadership, @Gilbird! I'm super appreciative for that no matter what time zone we are in!
3:00 🕒 5:00 🕔 7:00 🕖 9:00 🕘 11:00 🕚 !! 🐭 🕛 midnight!!! Time for bed, must leave ball, no more dancing with Prince. Good night friends! 💖 Platy
@cyanPlatypus6370
Thank you for that reminder, Cyan! And the chat has been added. I believe I have tagged everyone. Please feel free to comment and tag anyone I may have missed!
@Gilbird
Can you please also tag me in the post for the BPD chat?
I have BPD
Like a live group chat for those with BPD? I’d love that too… I need to talk to those who has been diagnosed, I feel so alone even though I know there’s people but I’d rather have a live group chat
