A note from Tine: Welcome to another edition of Tim Talks! For those who are new to Beautyholics Anonymous, Tim Talks is a new series on the blog where my husband, Tim, will be sharing his knowledge to help raise mental health awareness. Tim is a psychiatrist who works in metro Melbourne. His area of interest is child, adolescent and youth psychiatry.

In the last Tim Talks, he wrote about certain personality disorders and how they’re depicted in films. Today, he continues with the second part with more personality disorders.

Continuing with the last write-up, I am going to provide some more illustrations of personality disorders and also link it back to some of the accurate depictions of these in films.

Go, girl, seek happy nights to happy days.

I’ve only heard of the brand And Other Stories when I started watching British beauty YouTubers. The clothes from And Other Stories were often mentioned but they don’t ship to Australia so there’s no way of me even checking any of the clothes out. Still, I’ve seen the brand mentioned on blogs and YouTube so many times that I was highly intrigued.

I thought And Other Stories only did fashion and had no idea they have a beauty range as well. In my fun beauty swap with Shamim, she so kindly added a blush from And Other Stories into the package and I absolutely squealed with delight when I saw it. It’s exactly the sort of shade I’d go for and the words on the blush were simply lovely. It was hard for me to use the blush at first because I really didn’t want to ruin the words. But use it I must! 😛

Several years ago, when I was on Twitter, I saw this happening on my timeline. Blogger A had unfollowed Blogger B on Twitter. Somehow Blogger B found out about it and confronted Blogger A on Twitter, asking her why B had unfollowed her. As I follow these two bloggers, I could read their conversation on my timeline. Now this could go badly; there could be a fight on Twitter just because someone has unfollowed the other person and said person found out about it. Blogger A was polite but frank as she explained. Thankfully Blogger B was very grown up about it and accepted it as no big deal.

Like I said, it could have gone really badly while people like me read conversations like this on the outside munching popcorn and see how it could blow up. 😛
