As we finish tonight’s discussion, I would like to thank everyone that joined us for this discussion this evening, and those that have been reading along as well.

A huge thank you to our special guests @BPDSurvivor and @Alex_Spectrum for sharing their experience and advice with us, and some great resources as well. Another big thank you to @TideisTurning for sharing your thoughts with us tonight as well.

If you would like to keep the discussion going after this evening or if you have any other questions on this topic, please feel free to head over to the Raising Awareness of BPD - Flipping the Script thread.

And with that, we will end our discussion here 😊

Thank you again everyone and have a great rest of your night! @Giselle_ @BPD_Cat + anyone else reading along tonight!
