Hi everyone, do you know the
definition of the word choice? It means the act of choosing between two or more
possibilities.
This post came from talking
to my sister yesterday about some people who seem to think she chose to have BPD.
Thus, choosing to be difficult, emotional and all over the place. She has been
told that she is using BPD as an excuse for behaviour, no it isn’t an excuse it
is the reason why she acts like she does.
Does anyone think I chose to
have Parkinson’s; I don’t think so, the reason well maybe is because Parkinson’s
is a neurological condition and BPD is a mental health condition.
You would think in the
21century people wouldn’t still think a mental health condition is something
people chose to have. However, it does seem that is the way some people are thinking.
No one chooses to have any
form of mental health condition. Why would someone think that it is a choice.
