Why didn't Diana talk about her BPD too

[@peterlawrence6815]

Diana did not write that speech she was not that intelligent.

[@karlamccullough5319]

​@@peterlawrence6815 Diana didn't acknowledge having BPD. She was not treated for BPD. I believe she was either in denial or ashamed. BPD is thought to be caused by childhood trauma and genetic factors. I'm sure Diana didn't want to admit she may have passed the genetic factors on to future generations of the monarchy. She did admit her struggles with and was treated for depression and bulimia. She was also diagnosed with insomnia in 1983 and was prescribed sleeping pills. Long-term lack of sleep and prolonged use of sleeping pills promoted irrational thinking, Diana was increasingly paranoid and believed in conspiracies.

She was extremely knowledgeable in her moment. And way ahead of her time, they took her out just like J.F.K. unfortunately. Those who are righteous and good in heart, they always execute. ..... Jz sayin'. Miss you Diana

[@lauralutz4538]

Maudlin sentiments missing, Diana. She helped nobody! She was unloading her troubles on others. She had resources to be helped, those who she unloaded on maybe didn’t. She’s responsible for her own death. Don’t pine for her. No false hero’s needed. No seatbelt, she tipped of press as to her itinerary & her speed loving boyfriend led the high speed chase. This woman needs to Rest In Peace. ENOUGH! 5:26 😅

[@timtreefrog9646]

No one "took her out". 😅 1) There was no reason to do so. She had been divorced from Charles for a while. Both Charles and Di had moved on to different partners. 2) The day she died she wasn't even supposed to have been in Paris, she and Dodi changed their minds last minute. They also changed their mind about locations within Paris several times. Even changed their car to a random one in Mohammed Al Fayed's fleet. How could anyone predict all of this? 3) Given that the driver was drunk, and not trained in high speed evasive driving. He was Head of Security at the Ritz Paris. His best friend testified that he was a functional alcoholic. (Fine unless something out of the ordinary happens.) That plus Diana not wearing a seatbelt caused the traumatic injuries which killed this wonderful lady.

[@forcryingoutloud]

No. She was dumb as her youngest son. Dumb as a bloody post. She just happened to have an eating disorder, herself. Unstable and stupid was Diana.

What a women 👏

[@angelesch1909]

Speech given by Diana, Princess of Wales on "Eating Disorders" 27th April 1993 Ladies and Gentlemen I have it, on very good authority, that the quest for perfection our society demands can leave the individual gasping for breath at every turn. This pressure inevitably extends into the way we look. And of course, many would like to believe that Eating Disorders are merely an expression of female vanity - not being able to get into a size ten dress and the consequent frustrations! From the beginning of time the human race has had a deep and powerful relationship with food - if you eat you live, if you don't you die. Eating food has always been about survival, but also about caring for and nurturing the ones we love. However, with the added stresses of modern life, it has now become an expression of how we feel about ourselves and how we want others to feel about us. Eating Disorders, whether it be Anorexia or Bulimia, show how an individual can turn the nourishment of the body into a painful attack on themselves and they have at their core a far deeper problem than mere vanity. And sadly, Eating Disorders are on the increase at a disturbing rate, affecting a growing number of men and women and a growing number of children. Our knowledge of Eating Disorders is still in its infancy. But it seems, from those I have spoken to that the seeds of this dis-ease may lie in childhood and the self doubts and uncertainties that accompany adolescence. From early childhood many had felt they were expected to be perfect, but didn't feel they had the right to express their true feelings to those around them - feelings of guilt of self revulsion and low personal esteem. Creating in them a compulsion to 'disolve like a disprin' and disappear. The illness they developed became their 'shameful friend'. By focussing their energies on controlling their bodies, they had found a 'refuge' from having to face the more painful issues at the centre of their lives. A way of 'coping', albeit destructivly and pointlessly, but a way of coping with a situation they were finding unbearable. An 'expression' of how they felt about themselves and the life they were living. On a recent visit to 'The Great Ormond Street Hospital for Sick Children' I met some young people who were suffering from Eating Disorders. With the help of some very dedicated staff, they and their parents, were bravely learning to face together the deeper problems, which had been expressed through their dis - ease. With time and patience and a considerable amount of specialist support, many of these young people will get well. They and their families will learn to become whole again. Sadly, for others it will all be too late. Yes, people are dying through Eating Disorders. Yet all of us can help prevent the seeds of this dis - ease developing. As parents, teachers, family and friends, we have an obligation to care for our children. To encourage and guide, to nourish and nurture and to listen with love to their needs, in ways which clearly show our children that we value them. They in their turn will then learn how to value themselves. For those already suffering from Eating Disorders, how can we reach them earlier, before its too late? Here in Britain organisations such as 'The Eating Disorders Association' are currently being swamped with enquiries and requests for support and advice, so overwhelming is the need for help. Yet with greater awareness and more information these people, who are locked into a spiral of secret despair, can be reached before the dis-ease takes over their lives. The longer it is before help reaches them, the greater the demand on limited resources and the less likely it is they will fully recover. I am certain the ultimate solution lies within the individual. But with the help and patient nurturing given by you the professionals, family and friends, people suffering from Eating Disorders can find a better way of coping with their lives. By learning to deal with their problems directly in a safe and supportive environment. Over the next three days, this International Conference, has the opportunity to explore further the causes of Eating Disorders and to find new avenues of help for those suffering from this 'incapacitating dis - ease'. I look forward to hearing about your progress and hope you are able to find the most 'beneficial' way of giving back to these people their self esteem. To show them how to overcome their difficulties and re-direct their energies towards a healthier, happier life.

The man following her was too close for comfort even when he held the railing while Di climbed the stairs, she could have held the railing, their hands could have touched each other, he then went on to come too close to her and literally pointed to the mic where she could have tried to adjust the mic and their hands would have touched. The look he gave while facing the audience while leaving was so creepy that even Diana looked at him while he went. Seriously creeps will go to any lengths...

@@CetinAmsterdam what a loads of b******* how dare you tarnish her memory. The way the Royal family treated her. Listen to her brother's speech at her funeral everybody started clapping outside the church and moving down the church William and Harry were clapping to. The Queen Prince Philip the Queen mother Prince Charles stood still because they were guilty. She was a beautiful human being inside and out how dare you say such horrible things about her. I recently read a book about her written by her protection officer. Ken said in his book no subject had ever publicly criticised the sovereign in public she just stood there. She went to a homeless shelter and this rather dishevelled drunken man start criticised her Ken stepped in, but Diana said I'm alright. She spoke with him and said she'd come here today to see what she could do to help. She had been chatting with the other homeless people they all jumped to her defence she had only been with them for 15 minutes that is how much people loved her. she really believed she could make a difference and she could she was a true humanitarian. She visited that homeless shelter numerous times after that. We miss you Diana after reading that book 💗 I love you even more rest in peace sweetheart 💗
