I woke up to a $100 Ko-fi donation and it stopped me in my tracks. This kind of support means the world. It tells me that what I’m creating through Unpack my BPD is resonating. To the person who gave so generously: thank you. Support here: ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd

Ever feel like your skin doesn’t fit? Like clothes are too much or not enough? That’s me often. BPD makes it loud. But I’m learning to meet myself with compassion. 📖 Read more on my latest blog: Unpack My BPD (link in bio). #BPD #MentalHealthAwareness #Canadiancreator #MentalHealth

I’ve been working on these cute 3x3 art pieces, small in size but full of emotion. All proceeds from my Ko-fi go toward supplies and to a local mental health centre. Every bit of support helps me keep creating. ☕ ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd #MentalHealth #SupportSmallArtists #CanadianArtist #KoFi

My daughter once asked me why I was sad, I didn’t have words, so I painted.

Big eyes, purple skin, green hair, and a self-portrait surrounded by the chaos of expression. Every head, a feeling I’ve lived. This is what it looks like when I stop hiding. #SelfPortrait #MentalHealth #CanadianArtist

New blog up: I talk about growing up around narcissism, how it shaped my identity, and how that trauma led to BPD. I still love someone who shows those same patterns, and that hurts in ways I’m still unlearning. Read it on Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd #BPD #CPTSD #MentalHealth #Blog #Narcissism

Showing my art until someone sees me. Each piece tells a truth I don’t always have words for. This is what healing looks like messy, bold, and real. #MentalHealthArt #ArtHeals #BPD #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness

WIP exploring narcissistic personality disorder. A cracked mask, a delicate flower, and a spider-like creature tangled in the hair watching silently. Power, beauty, and manipulation in a haunting mix. Support: ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd #WIP #MentalHealthArt #NPD #CanadianArtist #MentalHealthawarenes

Finished my latest art on paranoia personality disorder, capturing the chaos and whispers that live inside the mind. Sometimes, it’s all in your head, but it feels so real. #MentalHealthArt #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness #CanadianArtist #Artist #painter

BPD paranoia isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s a whisper that hijacks your peace. A delayed text, a quiet room, a glance. Your brain screams “they hate you." I poured that feeling into my WIP. Read the full blog now on Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd #BPD #MentalHealth #Paranoia #Artist #Canadian

Hey, I’m Li, a mixed media artist and mental health advocate. I paint bold, emotional pieces about neurodivergency, identity, mental health, and healing. Art is how I speak when words fall short. 💛 #MentalHealth #ArtAsHealing

I can be surrounded by people I love and still feel miles away. That emotional disconnection? It’s one of the hardest parts of living with BPD. I wrote more about it here: ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd #BPDRecovery #MentalHealth #YouAreNotAlone

Working on a mental health art series for my October exhibit 💛 I’ve launched a Ko-fi goal to help cover paint, canvases & supplies to finish the work. Every bit helps 🎨 ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd #KoFi #MentalHealthArt #UnpackMyBPD #SupportArtists #ArtExhibit #localartist #mentalhealthawareness

Finished my latest piece, Moodstorm, a visual dive into the chaos of Bipolar Disorder. Part of my mental health series exploring emotions through colour and shape. #MentalHealthAwareness #BipolarAwareness #ArtWithPurpose

Healing isn’t always big or loud. Sometimes it’s quiet, like sipping your coffee, watching the sky, eating strawberries or hearing a song that feels like home. The little things matter, too. They keep us grounded. #UnpackMyBPD #BPDRecovery #SmallJoys #MentalHealth #SoftMoments #YouAreNotAlone

I wrote about what it’s like to be misunderstood with BPD, how my words or silence get twisted, and I’m left feeling at fault. It’s raw, honest, and from the heart. Read it on my Ko-fi blog: ko-fi.com/unpackmybpd #UnpackMyBPD #BPDVoices #MentalHealthWriting #KoFiBlog #bpd #mentalhealthawareness

Some days healing looks like breakthroughs. Other days it looks like getting out of bed, breathing through the overwhelm, and starting again. Both days matter. Both days count. #UnpackMyBPD #BPDRecovery #MentalHealth #HealingJourney #SoftReminder #YouAreNotAlone

Finished “Shifting Selves” my BPD-inspired artwork exploring fractured identity and emotional intensity. Part of my upcoming Mental Health Art Series this October. 🖤 #BPD #MentalHealthArt #MentalHealthAwareness #EndtheStigma

WIP: “Shifting Selves” This piece explores life with BPD, emotional overload and inner fragmentation. I’ve just added cracked earth patterns around the faces to show the instability that comes with always trying to hold yourself together. #BPDArt #MentalHealthArt #WorkInProgress #MentalHealthMatters

WIP: “Shifting Selves” This piece is about living with BPD, the fragmentation, the intensity, the constant shifting of identity and emotion. Still unfinished. #MentalHealthArt #BPDArtist #WorkInProgress #Mentalhealthawareness #EmotionalArt

Finished Piece: “in the eye of it all” This painting is my visual interpretation of anxiety a constant swirl of overthinking, hyper-awareness, and the crushing pressure of always feeling watched, even when you’re alone. #MentalHealthArt #Anxiety #BPDArtist #Mentalhealth #AcrylicArt #EmotionalArt
