BVBarmygirl Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hey guys! I only joined yesterday so just trying to find my way round a bit... Um well I made a sorta self-help website and haven't been able to ask for any advice on whether its content is actually helpful so I thought I'd ask you guys? I know it wouldn't relate to everyone, it is music based because I love music, and a lot of people wouldn't maybe know the bands or something...but I did post a video from Youtube someone made about BPD and that's how I actually knew about this forum... I just want to know is my website triggering or unhelpful in any way? Are there things anyone wants to add to it? Anything I should change? I'm trying to raise awareness about mental health issues so if anyone wants to write something I can put on there or a link I can put on there or a picture, a story, anything...I'd be grateful. I need help getting out the message. Any help from you guys? http://www.coveredbyroses.com Thank you guys... Rogue xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BVBarmygirl Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Thank you Oh and I like your quote about how nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. I didn't realise Marie Curie had said that. I worked in one of her charity shops one summer and it was a great experience! Love R xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousie Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 hey Rogue and welcome to the forum had a look at your site its clearly heartfelt and i believe it could help many that feel lost and alone and it says so much about you you are one of those people that make a difference for others and give a huge amount supporting others is very important to me i gravitate towards rescue but it has cost me a lot in the past and if you identify with that too then please just keep it in your awareness to not under resource yourself when giving you are as precious as any you give so much to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BVBarmygirl Posted April 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hey Mousie Thank you for the welcome! And also for taking the time to look at my website...I know what you mean though, I can often feel the massive burdens on my shoulders, if that's what you mean...I know I have to remember to keep myself well in order to continue trying to help others. Thank you so much for your encouraging words, I always feel like my existence is unnoticed and just...nothing, so I'm glad you think I'm precious like everyone else! I hope you've had a good day... Love, R xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousie Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Rogue you're not just like everyone else cos most folks don't do what you're doing you're not plugged into the safe mainstream and you're sharing your acute consciousness wrought from suffering and depth with altruistic compassion and i connect with that in you and know how easy it is to minimise one's own needs i spent many many years doing so, at very great cost and i hope this doesn't come across as patronising but from one soul to another recognising your beautiful energy and wanting all that is you to thrive, not just survive so... i hope your path is gentle, kind and fulfilling and may the owchy stuff be minimal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BVBarmygirl Posted April 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 No it doesn't come across as patronising at all. I do let others problems weigh me down and consume me and I completely lay down everything on the line to save someone else. At the moment I am just surviving...but that's actually okay for now because things are so bad. But I appreciate your comments a lot, you have a very sincere, calming, beautiful way of writing! So thank you xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzybee Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 Rogue, It has been a privilege to view your website, I feel that it takes a great deal of courage, compassion and determination to give of yourself in such a way. People will be able to connect with you, feel that they have found a space where they feel heard, understood and not so alone, as life/ world can be so utterly isolating when someone is living in pain..I love what you have done. But it has already been so eloquently raised, taking care of YOU is vital, as you are very important and its so easy to give so much of yourself, that your own needs become secondary. I must be getting old, I don't know some of the bands that are on your website, but I can appreciate them as I too am very much into my music, just a bit before your time though :-) Thank you for giving us insight into your world and sharing of yourself, i feel really honoured xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BVBarmygirl Posted April 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 My website isn't that good but I'm glad you think it could be helpful to people! Trying a lot to raise awareness about mental health issues because as we all know on this site it's so misunderstood out there in the big wide world! Yeah I know not everyone will be able to relate to a lot of the bands that have inspired me How old are you? I'm 25 nearly 26 so I'm starting to get on a bit. Windows 8 makes me feel old... I actually don't mind giving myself up to the needs of others, I'll probably die for their needs if I have to. But I'm actually okay with that...I'd rather that than be the opposite like all the people you hear about doing terrible things on the news Thank you so much for taking the time to view my website. If there are any changes you think I should make or things I should delete or anything you might think I should add please let me know R xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousie Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 hey Rogue just wanted to share stuff i've learned over the years i'm 51 is that i need to self preserve even if i want to give everything away and that model spills out into others and they learn that their life is worth preserving it was a hard long process learning that but after ages it just became a reality and i hope that you will learn that you are equal and will give of yourself and that the longer you live the more you will give in ever more informed ways essentially i'm wanting you to be safe and search for the happiness and peace for yourself that you want for those that you seek to serve oh and do keep your identity guarded as there are some that do take advantage sorry to be such a parental protective bunny but i mean well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellar Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hi Rogue, Where to begin.Well,i have ventured onto your"coveredbyroses"site.I found it highly informative,uplifting,triggering,sensitive,great taste in music,laying one's soul on the line for scrutiny,like ive never seen before,a totally fascinating blend. Musically driven,it helped to listen or watch footage whilst reading through the wealth of information.I have only recently got into "Black Veil Brides".I have"Lost it all"and "Knives and pens"and"saviour"on my Mp3.Others"Fit for Rivals",favourite track"Damage".Have only got"The final riot"cd/dvd by "Paramore"."The pretty wreckless",have"make me wanna die" and"my medicine" . Been listening to"Get scared" a lot recently,fav tracks,"stumbling in your footsteps"and "Hurt".My range of music is vast however,i suppose befitting a person my age. Totally get what you have done,admire your honesty.Have watched"Girl interupted"loads of times,last time,a few nights ago.Yes,it does trigger!saying nothing.Love the poems you have written,can really feel the importance of the message contained within them.You definitely have all round talent,with sensitivity to match.That's the trouble with us BPD ers.We are all to often open to hurt.But believe me Rogue,you have so much to live for. Don't want to write too much at once Just wanna say Well done Stellar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
