People with npd: Hey can we not be treated like abusers just for our disorder and be treated like actual human beings instead of monsters?

'Narc abuse' mfs: Is this an excuse to trauma dump on a complete stranger who is most likely a trauma survivor already?

fuck forgiving and forgetting I need to bash his face into unrecognisable mush

Since autism is stereotyped as having low empathy, many autistics fight against it, but while doing so they discriminate against cluster b autistics/individuals. And it's a shame because due to the constant abuse we face, a lot of us do have cluster b disorders.

Autistics can be narcissistic, antisocial, histrionic, and have bpd.

Autistics can have low empathy.

And the ability to empathize does not equal non-abusive. Abuse is a choice*, not a personality disorder. Having empathy doesn't inherently make you better than people without it.

*Edit = In this sentence, I'm referring to abuse that is reoccurring and the abuser lacks self-accountability. But it should be known that in a lot of cases abuse isn't always a conscious act people make. It can be unintentional if a person has only been in abusive settings and that is the norm in their environment.

The urge to just look unwell. Shadows under the eyes looking exhausted. Looking malnourished af. I want people to ask me if I’m okay and constantly expect me to pass out. But then I start breakdancing and they know I’m fine and just clinically insane.

Minor inconvenience:

Me: how about i end up in the fucking hospital how about that

I don't want to be an option, I want to be a priority

If your advocacy for truama/abuse survivors isn't inclusive of

Survivors who are not women

Survivors who developed hypersexuality

Survivors with personality disorders

Survivors with anger issues

Survivors with did/osdd

Survivors with substance abuse issues

Then maybe you should start making an effort to make it. I'm not asking anyone to shift focus to a topic they don't understand, but you dont have to become an expert in hypersexuality or personality disorders to not actively exclude or demonize them

Its "mental health matters" until someone has a trauma response that's not disordered in a way you like to romanticize
