Pete Davidson Responds To People Telling Him He Shouldn’t Be Dating Ariana Grande

Ariana’s new rumored boyfriend, Pete Davidson, was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder in 2016. Recently he has had people telling him he shouldn’t be dating Ariana because of it, and he replied:

“Normally I wouldn’t comment on something like this, but I been hearing a lot of ‘people with BPD can’t be in relationships’ talk. I just wanna let you know that’s not true. Just because someone has a mental illness does not mean they can’t be happy and in a relationship. It also doesn’t mean that person makes the relationship toxic.Everybody is different and there are a lot of treatments for mental illnesses and I have done / am doing all of them. And I encourage those who struggle to seek help as well it has changed my life for the better. I just think it’s messed up to stigmatize people as crazy and say that they are unable to do stuff that anyone can do. It’s not their fault and it’s the wrong way for people to look at things. I may be crazy, but at least I’m aware of it and not afraid to be honest about it and I’m not hiding behind a Twitter or Instagram account. I’m simply writing this because I want everyone out there who has an illness to know that it’s not true and that anyone who says that is ill and full of sh-t. Mental illness is not a joke it’s a real thing. There’s kids out there killing themselves. And it’s horrific. For all those struggling I want you to know that I love you and I understand you and it is going to be okay. That’s all. Love to everyone else.”
