kateordie: New comic day! I am impossible to live with. I got an email this morning from a reader who wondered if I might have BPD, or Borderline Personality Disorder. I looked it up and read through it and found a number of similarities to my own issues; having trouble seeing things rationally when I’m upset, extreme mood swings, paranoiac behaviour, jealousy, severe depression followed by bursts of limitless creative joy. Waking up feeling like the queen of the world and by lunch time, thinking about quitting art altogether. Constantly sabotaging my relationships with people around me while wondering why nobody calls to hang out. It’s a hard thing to cope with, like my brain’s fighting against my best interests. I wish I could always be Confident Badass Kate, drawer of comics and slave to no emotional trauma! I get pretty tired of Weepy Self-Pity Kate, hugger of pillows and watcher of endless Netflix documentaries. Anyway. I’m not self-diagnosing, but it was nice to read that maybe I’m not as crazy as I sometimes feel. Sound like anybody you know?  I might have the same thing.  Maybe. Via kate or die! Zoom
