Tell your story
If you have been mistreated by services because of your personality disorder diagnosis and want to tell your story, you deserve to be heard. Whatever the form this mistreatment takes, however minor or great, you deserve better. You, like everybody, deserve compassionate insightful personalised care. You deserve to be listened to. You are not alone.

If you would rather contact us via twitter, DMs are open and you can share your experiences to be published that way. If you've written about your experiences in a twitter thread use #PDVoices and tag @VoicesPD to be retweeted.
take care
Sharing experiences of abuse and mistreatment can be incredibly difficult, especially if you are still enduring it. If you are considering submitting your story it should be without pressure. Only include details that you are comfortable being public. If you are unsure as to whether to include a particular detail, I would suggest leaving it out--you can always add it to your story later or submit it as an anonymous experience some point in the future. Make sure to double check your submission for personal or identifying details that you don't want included, or anything that might compromise your safety.
Help out
Help finding and reading relevant articles or research would be greatly appreciated. Please send a link and the abstract/article summary either by email or through twitter.
have your own blog?
If you have your own blog where you post your experiences, or would prefer to host your story yourself elsewhere, it can still be featured on PD Voices. Send a link either by email or by twitter.
