Masking BPD Suicidal Ideation and More Feat. Guest Co-Host Leslie

What is masking? Masking is when someone hides or suppresses their true emotions, behaviors, or traits—usually to fit in socially, avoid judgment, or feel safer in a particular environment. It’s especially common among people with neurodivergent experiences (like autism, ADHD, or anxiety), but anyone can do it and those of us with BPD certainly do. This episode was accidental and came organically through conversation so we just hit record. Please note that at the beginning we talk heavily about suicidal ideation. We're safe. We hope you are. If this is triggering please use your skills, resources (below), or refer to the BBB episode on safety planning. You're loved. Send us a text message to be anonymously read and responded to!
