I think the post has some truth to it.

I think PwBPD are likely to be abused because BPD stems from being abused. Not always, but often, PwBPD experienced some severe trauma starting early in life. Some of it is genetic, but a lot of it has to do with how they were raised.

Since the trauma feels natural to them, they may be tempted to put themselves in situations that replicate it. Alternatively, they may also create the same chaos by being the abuser.

It certainly isn’t unusual to see PwBPD become nurses. We can debate if “empathy” is the right word, but they definitely can excel in the caretaking role. I think they relate to a lot of patients. They feel like their needs are always ignored (because often their needs are unrealistic). They feel like the least they can do is meet a patients every need. In that regard, they can anticipate needs and go the extra mile in ways that a lot of people may over look.

Edit: I’ll also add that whoever posted this needs to be wary of believing if a PwBPD is abused. Yes, their chances of being abused may be slightly higher than that of anyone else. It doesn’t negate all the false abuse allegations that are incredibly common though. Across the board it seems like PwBPD will claim “abuse” for situations that are not abusive. They can certainly spice it up and sell it that way though
