Title: Better than I could ever express
Post by: Cumulus on May 25, 2013, 03:48:34 PM
I'm reading a book by Anne Perry. A fantasy type story about the battle between good and evil. Not about BPD.  I came across this paragraph and it took my breath, it felt so true about my xBPDh.

"He looked into his face and saw beyond the surface... . For a moment time ceased to exist. He saw overwhelming, drowning misery, an anger that lashed out in every direction, wounding, hurting wherever it could. He saw the self hatred which needs to tear down and devour anything strong or clean, the hunger to destroy anything it does not own, to ridicule and shatter dreams and break belief. ... . He felt pity also, an agony of lost light, of chance after chance denied, of selfishness and cruelty that at last crept into every corner and drove out even the imagination of love."

There is nothing I could add to that description.
