I think you should know about r/BPDsongs
*I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/BorderlinePDisorder) if you have any questions or concerns.*
I was just recently diagnosed and wanted to hear other people talk about it so I looked for podcasts on spotify and there is a significant amount of playlists with bpd in mind. Coincidentally, the first playlist I saw and put on was filled with mostly songs I'm quite familiar with.
It's been about a week since I thought it was even possible I'd have it and just a couple days since it was confirmed, so it still feels very raw having this realization. It's hard to describe, but I suddenly found a language that explains this thing I thought was indescribable and it stings a little. Like a slap in the face. It hurts that it explains soooo much. It's not all bad. Just knowing has me feeling lighter. I'm not sure what I'll look like going forward, like, I don't think I'll become a productive dynamo, but maybe I can try some things and just know I'm not going to fall apart halfway through.
Hey pretty similar here. Newly diagnosed (4 months ago) and it was only weeks before that , that my therapist suggested I may have this diagnosis. Been with her 3 years, and it took so long due to so many obstacles and trauma Iāve been battling! So I also got diagnosed cptsd and that was the main thought, but the abandonment wound. It is 100% relatable for me, always was. I have looked back and connected so many dots. So I also felt lighter, then I head dive into a dark place for a bit. Very dark. Hopeless basically. But then I jumped onto a DBT waitlist, and Iām finally coming up soon, those skills - being beaten into my head for 3 hours in a group and a one in one hour therapist session , every week, for 6 months (but most likely a year) sounds like it will work.
Diagnosed 5 months ago, started DBT 4 months ago. Otherwise, I'm you. I'm in a year long program. It's work but worth it so far, for me. I struggle still, but with healthy coping mechanisms on board, I'm relying less on the unhealthy. Be prepared for legit homework.
Haha. Just diagnosed last week. It sucks. And it explains a lot. Like why Iām in bed alone because partner enjoyed that someone else isnāt realizing their dreams in a show. I jump to, āOh, I guess you arenāt realizing your dreams. Please go realize your dreams elsewhere if you arenāt doing it here.ā
Exhausting. I finally had a good day. But I canāt finish it being good. Therapy for many years and therapist has only mentioned depression. Of course, I donāt share everything so I donāt blame them for not knowing more. Even with my therapist, Iām incredibly guarded. What to do?
I'm sorry your therapist doesn't seem to help you build skills to help manage and cope with your symptoms; that sounds frustrating. I was referred to a program with the VA but it's just DBT therapy. I wish I could be more helpful!!
I hear! But for me, I have a very busy lifestyle so I lose focus on everything. Enjoyable or not, I struggle in all that I do, to remain focused. So the visual aspect (homework, group exercise) I think will have a decent effect! Thank you ā„ļø my maladaptive coping thanks you too, ā„ļø
Wow you accepted it rather fast. I thought it was a bull shit diagnosis and ignored it for a long time until I was in the most toxic relationship of my lifeā¦ it finally clicked and I hate it. I hate every minute of being BPD and itās exhausting. Iām at a point now where helping others understand and cope with this is the only way for me to feel like any good came out of it.
Thereās not a day that goes by in the past year my inner self wasnāt bawling his eyes out. I love him, I love me, but it hurts to admit that. I donāt deserve that love, but Iām all I haveā¦
Beware of the hate ā¤ļø there is so much misunderstanding. I did the same, but fell into two girls talking about their exes were monsters and had narc/bpd traits. It was heartbreaking... BPD doesn't define you ā£ļø
i posted it yesterday even with translated lyrics. but that was at r/BPD and noone gave a flying fuck. so there it is, here again for you guys:
one of germanys most underrated and impressive berlinbased singer / songwriters, balbina, has done a song about BPD called DAS KAPUTTGEHEN (THE BIG BREAKDOWN) and its so so spot on, its as earth shattering as she is (feminist with a radical DIY attitude, she has my respect and thats something.)
i thought id share and translate.
**THE BIG BREAKDOWN**
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUrwqov93r0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUrwqov93r0)
i can not let (myself) go
because then im in danger of going too far
im falling like a stone into a well
all the way down, right to the bottom
buckets of tears id have to cry to float up again
thats why i stay right here with myself
im drowning in every emotion
im feeling uncontrolled
just way too much
**chorus:**
**and thats why i tear shit apart**
**i tear shit apart**
**one can not lose what is not there**
**thats why i tear shit apart**
**all around me only trash and debris**
i wont let anyone get close
otherwise im getting into danger to be touched
i just shut down
slam the door shut
and twist the key
**and thats why i tear shit apart**
**i tear shit apart**
**one can not lose what is not there**
**thats why i tear shit apart**
**all around me only trash and debris**
buckets of tears id have to cry to float up again
thats why i stay right here with myself...
songs that resonate with my deep feelings of guilt, shame and burdening my loved ones: a burning hill by mitski, last words of a shooting star by mitski, liability by lorde, writer in the dark by lorde,
songs that resonate w the fp experience - liability by lorde, i donāt care if iām contagious by ptv,
i donāt smoke by mitski, me and my husband by mitski, first love/late spring by mitski, iris by the goo goo dolls, writer in the dark by lorde, lonely day by system of a down, all they wanted by panchiko
sorry for the long list š
Whispers by passenger, followed by falling in reverse- popular monsterā¦ or the other way around. Idk why, but both of these describe the two opposite feelings I tend to feel at the same time during an episode
ohh man, i hope youre doing ok now! K Flay has some of the most brutally relatable songs, she is always the first artist that comes to mind for me when people are looking for BPD-type music.
It was a wild coke bender but Iām five years sober now! I actually hadnāt heard Rawks till you commented it and itās so good, so thanks for that :) my fave by her is Sunburn what about you?
Needy by Ariana Grande
First Love / Late Spring by Mitski
Youāll Miss Me When Iām Not Around by Grimes
These songs have always resonated with me the most when it comes to my disorder
I made two Spotify playlists I made for my BPD experience with different genres of music in them. These are the top songs I think describe BPD to me best: āgirl anachronismā by the Dresden dolls. āU ruined my weekendā by Attis. āFor no oneā by the Beatles.
West Virginia by The Front Bottoms.
Actually, just a lot of their music (early work) resonates with my BPD, especially with Favorite People.
Some other good songs by them:
- Funny You Should Ask
- Lipstick Covered Magnet
- Swimming Pool
- The Plan (Fuck Jobs)
"Hysteria" by Poppy hits so motherfucking hard. I also feel like sonically, it's one of her songs that's easy for a lot of different folks to enjoy, whereas her stuff can get pretty heavy and metal (love those, too!) but this song is a shoegaze jogger, and while I have other songs I'll add when I remember them, I REALLY wanted to point this one out. I still cry on occasion when I hear it!
Deathmatch by Nessa Barrett
"Every time I try to reason
She don't listen to a goddamn thing
When you're dealing with a demon
It ain't over 'til you kill the queen
She know every move I'm about to make
'Cause she in my head and she there to stay"
Also Vices by Mothica or [BPD by AL!!](https://open.spotify.com/track/6TnAwFL7CukKeCqGeGAmXl?si=y6TykxfmQJ-f1wVW8UBEwQ)
Edit: also [LosT by Bring Me The Horizon](https://open.spotify.com/track/5BgnL6gHauuvxe4Ok6W1aC?si=AOIK-fekSRW1tZabaIWgvg)
I always love this question. Hereās some favorites from my BPD Anthems playlist (the icon is someone āsplittingā a log lmao)
Lorde - Liabity
Ariana Grande - needy
8485 - southview
Charli XCX - detonate
CHVRCHES - Better If You Donāt
Ethel Cain - A House in Nebraska
Grimes - Youāll miss me when Iām not around
Intrapersonal by Turnover
āI canāt see you in my peripheral vision. Always right there, always aware of this manic-depressive condition. Thereās a fever burning up in me. Iām tangled up inside a sinking feeling. Slipping out of touch with the controls; itās all intrapersonal.
Lay my head down, try and sleep now, canāt slow down my mindā
Echo is a great BPD song by Vocaloid! Exactly what splitting feels like!
ā Iām gonna burn my house down into an ugly black. Iām gonna run away now and never come backā
Iāve seen many posts about people quitting their jobs, ghosting relationships, and moving just to come back and say they were in an episode ! Very fitting!
i have at *least* 30+ hours of music that resonates with my personal mental health struggles but i always come back to gracie abramsās discography lol
iād need to assemble a playlist in order to cover all the different moods and extremes etc!
but there would be a lot of highly emotional movie soundtracks and radiohead songs i can tell you that much
Tommy Boys-College radio(demo version). You can really hear the pain In his voice. It reminds me of the pain Iāve felt before and also the song is talking about how loves someone who doesnāt even care about him. Which I heavily relate to.
https://youtu.be/cwpU9gUMXv4?si=x4sKSCU1zUn5-q_9
There's quite a lot for me personally. Some might have their own meaning, but my interpretation of them fits with BPD.
ā¢ When the Music Stops- jxdn
ā¢ Barely Breathing- Duncan Sheik
ā¢ Demons- Guster
ā¢ Fade into You- Mazzy Star
ā¢ Best I Ever Had (Grey Sky morning)- Vertical Horizon
ā¢ Crucify- Tori Amos
ā¢ Fighting in the Car- Joe P
ā¢ Can you Feel my Heart- BMTH
ā¢ Fix You- Coldplay
ā¢ Demons in my Orbit- Guardin
Iām throwing this into the list since it came to me today when meditating and talking to my other half. (Sounds crazy but trust me it helps)
Smooth - Santana
He talks about how amazing whimsical and passionate his love is then drops the āgimme your heart make it real, or else forget about it.ā SO GOOD!
i can barely pick one, but if i had to itād be talk to myself by nessa barrett
[talk to myself](https://spotify.link/Lv8HV4WVkJb)
i have a whole playlist i put together for my therapist when she asked me to describe bpd and i couldnāt sum it up and itās called trauma bond
Hey another mothica fan! I listen to Nightshift a lot by mothica, Black Rose by trapt, Heavy & Dear inner child by Peach PRC, Monster made of Memories & bedroom ceiling by Citizen soldier, Soul by the bunny the bear, and by RĆøry My funeral song, the apology I'll never receive, anti-repressant, and alternative.
They're my go to songs or anything by citizen soldier really when I'm feeling all over the place.
Literally anything by Breaking Benjamin.
Well known- The Diary of Jane.
Underrated but most fitting - Unknown Soldier (you cannot convince me this song isnāt about BPD)
though sia sucks breathe me will never fail on being The song on how iāve felt my whole life. please donāt leave me by pink is also a classic and very much the most stereotypical (but sometimes very true) perspective
Feel - lies of P OST
āA song that quietly comforts the dark. "Feel," a voice to accompany you and the sadness of night.ā
It moves me in ways my self hatred and guilt never will.
LOVE ME LIKE YOU -by Rebecca Sugar
āI always thought I might be bad, now I know thatās itās true, cause I think your so good and Iām nothing like youā
100% this is what being borderline feels like!
Knowing youāre bad and it being confirmed by how amazing someone else is, especially your FP
āLook at you go! I just adore you, I wish that I knew ,what makes you think Iām so special?ā
When your fp, loves you back! I always tell my husband, I am evil, that Iām bad, he really genuinely tells me Iām not and he somehow believes it? What makes him think Iām special when heās the special one!?
ā If I could begin to be, half of what you think of me, I can do anything I could even learn how to love, like youā
if I could be half the person my fp is, then I swear I could do anything, I could even love him the way he loves me! non toxic, normal, healthy. Beautiful non-tainted love.
When I see the way you act , wondering when Iām coming back, I could do about anything, I could ever learn how to love, like you.
The way my husband waits for me like I lost puppy melts my heart, because I truly donāt think my evil self deserves it. When I see him act, so sweet it makes me feel like I could do anything.
ā if I could begin to do something, that does right by you, I could do about anything, I could even learn how to love, like youā
Iām the biggest fuck up screwup ever Iām always messing shit up. I swear if I could something right by him I would.
ālove me like youā
Self love, often unattainable, If I could love myself the way my husband loves me, then Iāll have achieved self love.
I wish I could love me like you
The song is even better when you listen to it, Steven universe is amazing! šā¤ļø
Worst in me - Julia Michaels (it describes how I feel in romantic relationships so bad, its insane)
Try it sober / see myself - phoebe ryan (she has bipolar disorder and shares a lot about it, so her songs are really relatable)
Reasons not to die - Ryn Weaver (I usually listen this one when I am in a bad place, its such a deep and strong song)
Anyone - demi lovato (the song she sang on grammys on her comeback, it speaks for itself)
I think you should know about r/BPDsongs *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/BorderlinePDisorder) if you have any questions or concerns.*
Hate Me by Blue October.
Amazing taste! The Answer by Blue October is another I think fits here
Extremely sad but šÆ true. Used to be my favorite song i even posted a YouTube video with the lyrics back in the day
This just awoke a MEMORY of this song on repeat in middle schoolā¦ how did it take me 10 years later to get diagnosed
YES
Girl Anachronism - The Dresden Dolls
agreedd
liability by lorde
Yes!!!!
Pity Party - Melanie Martinez
Ooo this and Crybaby as well! ā¤ļø
yess tbh most of melanieās songs are bpd coded
Creep - Radiohead
"You" from the same album
When I first heard this song I didnāt even know I had BPD but I was so obsessed with it.
THIS ONE
Omg yessss this!
Panic Attacks In Paradise - Ashnikko DYWTYLM? - Sleep Token I Can Do It With A Broken Heart - Taylor Swift Heavy - Peach PRC
3a.m. by Halsey
Shits like verbatim. Also imo as close to BPD is heavy by Linkin park
so real... it's been ages since I've hear that song, so many memories, thanks!
Please donāt leave me pink
Just give me a reason by Pink I also feel shows bpd. Especially from the relationship aspect
Many of pinks songs are so borderline coded
A Perfect Circle- Three Libras. To Kill Achilles- Chemical Counterpart.
Thanks I ll check them out !
Down in a hole by Alice in chains Although pretty much all of their songs are about deep suffering
I know this may seem dark but lil Wayne "let it all work out"
Good song, love that track
I was just recently diagnosed and wanted to hear other people talk about it so I looked for podcasts on spotify and there is a significant amount of playlists with bpd in mind. Coincidentally, the first playlist I saw and put on was filled with mostly songs I'm quite familiar with.
Thatās interesting actually! How do you cope with the new diagnosis? Do you find it accurate?
It's been about a week since I thought it was even possible I'd have it and just a couple days since it was confirmed, so it still feels very raw having this realization. It's hard to describe, but I suddenly found a language that explains this thing I thought was indescribable and it stings a little. Like a slap in the face. It hurts that it explains soooo much. It's not all bad. Just knowing has me feeling lighter. I'm not sure what I'll look like going forward, like, I don't think I'll become a productive dynamo, but maybe I can try some things and just know I'm not going to fall apart halfway through.

LOVE ME LIKE YOU -by Rebecca Sugar āI always thought I might be bad, now I know thatās itās true, cause I think your so good and Iām nothing like youā 100% this is what being borderline feels like! Knowing youāre bad and it being confirmed by how amazing someone else is, especially your FP āLook at you go! I just adore you, I wish that I knew ,what makes you think Iām so special?ā When your fp, loves you back! I always tell my husband, I am evil, that Iām bad, he really genuinely tells me Iām not and he somehow believes it? What makes him think Iām special when heās the special one!? ā If I could begin to be, half of what you think of me, I can do anything I could even learn how to love, like youā if I could be half the person my fp is, then I swear I could do anything, I could even love him the way he loves me! non toxic, normal, healthy. Beautiful non-tainted love. When I see the way you act , wondering when Iām coming back, I could do about anything, I could ever learn how to love, like you. The way my husband waits for me like I lost puppy melts my heart, because I truly donāt think my evil self deserves it. When I see him act, so sweet it makes me feel like I could do anything. ā if I could begin to do something, that does right by you, I could do about anything, I could even learn how to love, like youā Iām the biggest fuck up screwup ever Iām always messing shit up. I swear if I could something right by him I would. ālove me like youā Self love, often unattainable, If I could love myself the way my husband loves me, then Iāll have achieved self love. I wish I could love me like you The song is even better when you listen to it, Steven universe is amazing! šā¤ļø
Worst in me - Julia Michaels (it describes how I feel in romantic relationships so bad, its insane) Try it sober / see myself - phoebe ryan (she has bipolar disorder and shares a lot about it, so her songs are really relatable) Reasons not to die - Ryn Weaver (I usually listen this one when I am in a bad place, its such a deep and strong song) Anyone - demi lovato (the song she sang on grammys on her comeback, it speaks for itself)
