Response to creative prompt: "When I look in the mirror, I see..."
When I saw the prompt, ‘When I look in the mirror I see…’, it struck a chord with me because after a recent bad patch a friend had told me that my BPD was lying to me when I told her I thought everyone hated me. The prompt made me think about how who I see when I look in the mirror seems to be in conflict to what other people see when they look at me, and that’s what I have written about.
