On the Borderline - Life With BPD: Ophelia

Ophelia

Anyone can draw. Drawing is a matter of looking at an object and putting it down on paper. The hard part is looking at something that’s not in front of you and seeing it clearly enough to draw it. Of course, technique plays a part- the right materials, line quality, tones, etcetera for the subject you are trying to convey. Perspective, contours, and so on. But it can be learned.

Today I wondered what it would be like to drown. It wasn’t an urge or a wish, though, so I know I am getting better a day at a time. It was never made clear, at least when I was reading it in class, whether or not Ophelia meant to die.

Today marks about three weeks since I stopped taking the Lamictal.
