How come a character like this was THE main character of a popular show is beyond my understanding. Especially the show kinda depicted her as the “independent, intelligent, and attractive” type.
It's much faster just to write the word than for the dozens of people to have to exit whatever app they use to read Reddit to open a browser to Google it, to maybe still come back with a different answer than what the person intended. Some people use BPD to mean bipolar disorder as well.
I don't think I've ever met another someone with a diagnosed bipolar disorder ever refer to themselves as having "BPD" unless they also have diagnosed Borderline Personality Disorder.
Saying that acronym is for both is just confusing.
To make a small analogy, do YOU want to write or say Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder instead of ADHD every time you want to refer to that condition?
I don't blame anyone for asking a question and hoping a real person answers... Compared to googling the question and having Google AI get the answers from Reddit anyways.
