Kristen’s reality acceptance – the gift

BPD PrideEveryone has challenges to work on!  My challenges/disability get me accommodations through university, help for my BPD, the gift of being more sensitive and empathic, the passion to teach / help others, connection with a beautiful community.  I could go on.  It is what it is.  This is me practising my radical acceptance.  Embrace the beautiful you!  … julie

Kristen’s courage and insight go a long way to help others with the big gulp (accepting reality about our mental health challenges)  You are a beautiful gift to yourself and others.  Never forget this.
