Series 5: Borderline in Wonderland - Emotions like storms. Love like fire. A heart that’s too big for this tiny teacup world.

E100: The Shame Spiral Slide: One Mistake Feels Like a Moral Failure

Welcome to the 100th episode of Wonderland Unlocked—and what better way to mark the milestone than by sliding straight into one of the most intense experiences of BPD: the shame spiral.

In this episode of Wonderland Unlocked, we explore how one small mistake can trigger an overwhelming emotional landslide, making us feel like we’re not just wrong—we are wrong.

Like Alice tumbling endlessly down the rabbit hole, shame can distort reality, isolate us, and convince us we’re unforgivable. But what if mistakes didn’t have to mean moral failure?

Together, we’ll explore how to pause the spiral, challenge the story shame tells us, and build gentler ways of holding ourselves when we slip.

*********************************************************

🗝️✨ I was never supposed to tellthis story. But I am.Foryears, I lived inside someone else’s version of my life — wrapped in secrets,silences, and bedtime stories that left too much out.

Now I’m writing the truth. Unlocked is my autobiography about adoption, anxiety, familyfractures, and the journey of reclaiming my voice.

I’m raising funds toprofessionally edit, design, print, and share this book with people who need toknow they’re not alone.

If you’ve ever been called too sensitive, too dramatic, too much — this book is for you.And if you believe in the powerof truth, I’d be so grateful if you could help me bring it into the world.
