The Internet allows people to do things without any consequences — or at least that’s what they try to make you believe. Even though we have been using the Internet on a regular, everyday basis for several decades at this point, we still fail to realize that what you put on the World Wide Web will have its implications on the real-life you as well. The screen grants us the possibility to feel protected and unseen in our actions, no matter the ways we exploit the system. This is one of the biggest issues we deal with in regards to online abuse and cyberbullying.

Life Update: When Is It Enough?

Life Update posts have been very few and far in between, and that has been for the reason that nothing all that important of notifying has happened in my life recently. After my girlfriend moved in with me, a lot of things have remained more or less the same, but in a positive way. My life has found new kind of stability, something I haven’t experienced in my adult years at all prior. I am more than grateful for everything my girlfriend has done and continues to do for me on an everyday basis, because it has truly helped me find some type of grounding in this world, and my BPD likes that very much.

The only thing that still remains uncertain is our financial situation, along with the way the Finnish social security system continues to question my status as a disabled individual.
