Reasons why people with BPD may struggle with managing their money; a thread
We learned growing up that buying presents is a way to show your love without using your words
We learned that when you fuck up, buying someone a nice gift will rectify the situation because that’s how you say sorry right?
We find it hard to keep our emotions stable & positive, so we use money and buying things as a way to obtain serotonin and endorphins in the moment
We often don’t see a future worth living, so what’s the point in saving money? Just live in the moment right?
At least these are reason I find myself and others I’ve spoken to struggling. Please add to the thread if I missed something. I’m slowly getting better at saving ✨
