How Women Excuse Their “Bad”, “Crazy” and “Psychotic” Behaviours

When my friend bit her partner’s penis she blamed her raging hormones.

My friend emotionally abuses her partner. I had to confront her and try to speak “some sense” into her but she is currently pregnant. I felt I had to be mindful of that.

I’ve been speaking to her partner about the situation he is currently in hoping to give him courage and do something about it. You see, he hoped that things would improve in time. Things worsened: on few occasions, she threatened suicide because she disagreed with his opinions on certain things.

Last week things escalated when she bit his penis.

Her excuse?

“I am pregnant! I am unable to control myself!”

Her partner took action and spoke to her mother and family. They are all advising her to continue therapy. She quit taking medications and going to her psychiatrist two years ago, when she was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, she also displays narcissistic traits.

My friend is stubborn, she doesn’t need help. Once again, when confronted, she told me the same excuse she gave to her partner — her behaviour is due to pregnancy.
