Why do we push people away when we’re desperate not to be alone? This episode dives into the cycle of self-isolation in BPD; the shame, the spiral, and the crushing silence that follows. From Reddit confessions about ghosting friends to the raw loneliness of living with BPD as a man, we talk about what it means to retreat into yourself and how damn hard it is to find a way back out.
If you’ve ever locked yourself in your room and hated yourself for it, this one’s for you.
