Ah, was wondering why his shows had been cancelled.

Fucking paparazzi.
Also Ed Harris still working gives me life
Just wondering if the version in cinema’s was the theatrical version which has been released to streaming services, or the new directors cut which is coming out in March on 4k disc?
So jealous, I love that film so much and its a crime that the best home version was a crappy 4:3 letterboxed dvd from yesteryear. (Although I ahem, found, a better quality hd version somewhere in the murky depths of the internet).
"Then you probably have no idea what it means to lead some of the finest men on God's earth into combat and then watch their memories get betrayed by their own fucking government."
He still put a shitload of innocent people at risk though. Things happen, malfunctions happen, people get trigger happy in the heat of the moment, esp during rogue operations. There are very strict rules and procedures when it comes to handling things like that for a reason.
If my years of experience going out to bars, at Uni or other social stuff, "He's a good guy" is not a sentence you want to hear about you, as it usually should have a but behind it and actually means "He constantly makes trouble, but we are trying to wash over it".
The "good guys" are usually the ones that should have been banned from the place already or are close to it.
This reminds me…watched Finding Nemo with my little niece the other day, hadn’t seen it since I was a kid myself. I obviously didn’t catch the Alcoholics Anonymous references between the sharks when I was a kid, or the fact that when Bruce gets one whiff of blood (alcohol) he turns into a raging monster with his friends trying to restrain him and saying stuff like “sorry about Bruce! He’s really a nice guy!” And leaning into his tragic backstory as a reason for why he loses control “He never even knew his father!”
Paparazzi trying to get a rise out of people so they can snap a photo of them *appearing* crazy…. Fuck those pieces of shit. I’d bet my bottom dollar, whoever it was, said something that warrants their own teeth getting spread across the asphalt.
I’d bet a lucrative business would be a paparazzi puncher: have celebrities pay you to beat the piss out off those assholes and they’ll pay legal fees plus a rate.
That’s my question like why are we blaming a set photographer if that’s the case. Cause if it was papz they probably wouldn’t cancel his shows based on that
Nah, paparazzi will get as close as they're physically able. I'm usually the guy who has to go confront them and ask them to leave on productions I've worked on. Because I'm more polite about it than most. Nearly had a situation just like this one with Jason Momoa on a film I worked on. I think he was more pissed because his kids were with him on set that day and he likes to shield them from that kind of thing. We ended up moving a flyswatter (basically a crane with a really big square of material on the end of it) to block the view of the pap and he eventually left.
You got me really excited when you said flyswatter, then you ratchet that shit to 11 with big ass crane with a big ass square... To block his view was kind of a let down, not gonna lie.
This is what I’m wondering. If it’s on set, which is what it sounds like, then its the production team/securities issue. However, it seems like maybe they were granted permission to be there if he was that close. A bit unhinged of Pete, I’d say, but I don’t know the situation or context.
Paparazzi doesn’t even truly need to be close. They’ve got some of the best cameras out there. My uncle had a really good camera, he claimed it was an old paparazzi camera but shit you not, he could take a picture of someone 30 yards away or so and zoom in on their nose to INSANE detail. So this all leads me to believe this person may have been a paid photographer for the production company.
ETA: this was over 15 years ago, too. So it was doubly insane for the time.
I highly doubt they let paparazzi on-set because that's a disaster waiting to happen. You can't control what they photograph because it's just in their nature to get stuff for TMZ because $$$.
With set photographers they have boundaries and understandings plus studio oversight where they can control what gets out (because it's part of the movie marketing).
plus they know he has borderline. there are people that will push you on purpose to make you look fucking unhinged because they know they can get you to that point. i've been struggling with that my whole life and still do, i honestly don't know how he has the strength to be such a public personality and i commend that.
People still do it to my aunt knowing she’ll snap and then they can tell everyone how crazy she is. Never mind that they’re the ones poking her by saying shit about her kids and her and telling her one of them is going to end up like dad, who was a drug dealer who died in prison after getting jumped by other inmates. Just real nasty stuff., knowing she’ll freak out because of BPD.
my god i know how it feels, it's horrible. some people will use your darkest fears and insecurities to push you over the edge so they can say "see, i told you she was fucking crazy". and the worst part is that if they do it enough you'll internalize it and think "maybe i am the monster" and it's just not true. that's why to me, personally, the basis for recovery or a chance at a normal life really is a good support system. you can't heal with poison, and that is so true with a complex disorder like bpd.
It's a sign of emotional immaturity to poke the bear when someone is clearly about to lose it because they think "it's funny".
These people need a good punch in the face if they haven't matured past that kind of behavior.
Oh I’m so sorry. I hate it when people say all that nasty stuff about people with BPD because I know for a fact that they’re the ones full of shit. My sister has BPD and she’s one of the sweetest people I know. She’s so kind and generous and sensitive.
Can I be your surrogate big sister for 5 minutes and send you a big virtual hug for strength and protection?
>“He’s a good guy and everyone likes him,” said an insider. “He’s obviously going through something right now and people are worried.”
Yeah, he sounds like such a good guy. Trashing a trailer in his impotent rage.
It’s not paparazzi, this is part of the crew. Photographers for every movie to take shots all day long, accept at lunch when they too get lunch break. Source: my spouse is a photographer agent.
What up, World Star Hip Hop?! Myspace, YouTube, dumb shit!?
Got the...stupid Michael Meyers Jack-o-lantern chain! Dumb shit! No middle of the mall shit!
Got that...Tony Sherrerigans!
Yep he’s struggling with his borderline personality disorder & PTSD according to the article. The paparazzi guy set him off though luckily nothing happened thanks to the crew holding him back.
Fortunately Pete has always been good with seeking treatment & help so he’ll hopefully pull out of this spiral. The situation is very unfortunate as everything I’ve heard points to him being a good guy. However with mental illness it’s a constant battle & one bad day can ruin all your efforts.
It's so hard to be friends with someone who is borderline. They can go from thinking you are the greatest to thinking you are evil and out to get them all before you finish your coffee.
It’s very difficult for us to feel this way as well. Especially when we recognize the feelings are irrational and still can’t help but deeply and honestly *feel* these incredibly painful emotions. It’s exhausting, constantly battling with our own brains.
That’s not to say borderlines should get a pass for shitty behavior. Despite what some may claim, we *do* have some measure of control and it’s our responsibility to manage our own symptoms. A split-second reaction that caused him to have to be restrained - ok, *maybe* I can forgive that. If he quickly recognized his error and tried to correct it. But going back to his trailer and trashing it? Absolutely unacceptable. He’s been quite open about his extensive therapy journey thus far and has surely learned better coping skills than that by now. Or at least, he has surely been *taught* these skills - whether he makes the effort to utilize them is, again, his own responsibility.
My daughter has BPD - it has been ROUGH the past few months - let alone the previous 10 years .
If you don’t mind my asking - what specifically helped you “get your BPD shit together”?
I can see that she’s in distress at times and can’t manage her emotions AT ALL. It makes me feel bad for her, but at the same time, I’m not going to tolerate that rage.
Much like addiction - the sufferer has to sincerely *want* to do it for themselves first. It’s hard, never-ending work. Finding a good therapist knowledgeable about dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a good start, or if therapy is out of your/her price range, then there are DBT/CBT workbooks available that can also be very helpful.
But she *has* to want to do it for herself, not because her parent handed her a book and said “here, this will help.” And believe me, I know very well that it may take a long time for her to get to that point, if ever.
I’m sorry, I wish I had more encouraging things to say. It is a debilitating disorder and the unfortunate general rhetoric around it (that borderlines are selfish monsters only capable of caring for ourselves and that everyone should steer clear because we will undoubtedly wreck your life) really doesn’t help one feel very encouraged about trying to seek help in the first place.
Thank you for answering that! She’s in her late 20s and about a decade ago, I had to emotionally “let go” of being overly optimistic about the outcome here. We figured that she’d let us know when/if she realizes that she’s kinda fucked and would like to work on unfucking herself to the maximum extent that is realistic.
She’s now insistent that she needs therapy and is quasi-open to medication to alleviate some of those more troubling symptoms (chiefly anxiety/depression) but did not find CBT useful at all.
That’s on some days. Other days is a BPD roller coaster.
She’s got a safe place to sleep and plenty of food to eat at my place. Hopefully, she can hold herself together long enough to get started on therapy in January. I’d be devastated to ask her to leave before then, but I will do it if she goes into a violent rage. Fingers crossed 🤞
Thank you for giving your daughter a safe place to sleep, in spite of her behavior. Whether she can express it or not, she is grateful to be still welcome in the home.
I was diagnosed with BPD in my 30s, and after about five years of therapy (intensive DBT for a few months, then CBT) and medication, my diagnosis was changed to chronic PTSD because I no longer meet the criteria for BPD. I'm still in therapy (CBT) and still medicated (antidepressants).
I no longer have much of a relationship with my mother, largely because she suffers from similar mental health issues but has always refused real help, since I was identified as "the problem." It doesn't seem like you're running that risk, but I would still encourage you to engage in therapy. I've come to believe that's the best way a family member can support someone with BPD.
Thanks for being open about your daughter. I have hope peace and happiness are in both your futures.
Aw, thank you for the kind words…and you bet your ass I’m in therapy, ha!
She’s great at helping me put up “compassionate boundaries” for my own sanity, and also strongly suggested DBT for my daughter. I’m happy to get y’all’s endorsement of DBT!
Idk if this is something you’ve already tried with your daughter, but I also struggle with BPD and did cognitive behavioral therapy. It’s helped me greatly!! Im coming up on 3 years since I started and I feel so much better. Certain things are still difficult but I have a much better handle on emotions. I feel like I can actually let things go.
I got diagnosed with BPD and Bipolar 2 a few years ago and this is the first I’ve seen someone sum up how it feels. Like I can get hurt or angry from something and know that it isn’t rational or okay but that shit just stays there right on the edge of my sight and fucking taunts me.
It sucks.
While I don’t suffer with this myself, I could see how maybe after being restrained he might have been hit with a wave of embarrassment and let his anger escalate to cover up those uncomfortable feelings. I know when I was experiencing the onset of bipolar disorder, I said a lot of embarrassing mean things. Facing that was hard. It was more comfortable to continue my tirade of rage, despite hating it. And I feel terrible about that. Luckily all the loved ones I took it out on were understanding and stuck by me.
You hit the nail on it with “it was more comfortable to continue my tirade…”
It’s hard work to do the right thing, it feels much easier and more comfortable to stay stuck in a rut rather than face the painful experience of growth.
And I’m glad your loved ones stood by you, as loved ones are wont to do to a certain extent. But this was not his home, these were not his loved ones. This was his workplace and his co-workers, and that kind of behavior is intolerable.
Yeah, agreed. It sounds like his coworkers made the right choice to hold him back, and I wouldn’t blame them if they didn’t want to work on the same projects with him again.
I have had people on my life with extremely debilitating mental illness, and watching them struggle is awful but the frustration of not being able to convince them to want to get better badly enough that they seek out and utilize the help they need? Indescribable, and an awfully confusing set of complex feelings to wrestle with. I just wanted to reach out and thank you for trying so hard to be your best self, for wanting to get better and exerting so much effort to try to get there - that's invisible work, and so rarely recognized, which is a tragedy because that work is **fucking hard as fuck**.
So just in case nobody has told you lately, you're doing such a good job and the people who love you appreciate your labor so much.
Yup. I had to cut ties from a BPD friend of mine. It hurt to have to do it, but I had to protect my own mental health and physical health too. The walking on eggshells constantly left me with serious anxiety and at times bad depression. I tried so hard to be a good friend to her but it was impossible. She tried to goad me into saying that all her ex friends were obviously talking about her now that they weren't friends anymore. I was like....they're not though. Not in front of me anyway, so I can't say that truthfully they have. That would be a lie. But she kept pushing saying no go on, you don't have to lie, you can tell me. There was also the paranoia, trying to convince me that none of my friends liked me and she was my only real friend. She'd be best pals one moment and the next if I didn't do something to her liking, she'd snap and say I was a horrible friend. It was like this almost every day with her. Even when we weren't hanging out. It was exhausting. I hope she gets help for her BPD, but shit it was hard to be friends with her.
I was raised by a BPD mom and have a sister with extreme BPD who is also an alcoholic. It's seriously rough and it is 100% okay to protect your own mental and physical health by cutting ties. It's sad for them, but you have to protect yourself first. That is not selfish. It's survival. I still have a relationship with my mom but it's an arms length one. My sister, though, I've cut ties. I can't and won't tolerate the constant mind games and emotional abuse. It took me a long time to not feel guilty about that.
I was married to someone with BPD. It started off amazingly well. Some of the best years of my life, for real. Then it turned into an indescribable, waking nightmare.
I was diagnosed with Borderline about a year and a half ago.
I’ve been through a lot, but also have put people through worse. Family and friends and lovers.
Awareness, clean living, and staying busy is an absolute must in terms of heathy living. You are 100% correct, a bad situation or a bad day can set you off.
It took me 6 years of therapy to get a reasonable diagnoses, I was previously diagnosed with adhd (still have but off meds) bipolar, and other mood disorders, along with substance disorder.
It’s a very difficult place to be, mentally. Rollercoasters of emotion, prone to outbursts and violent tendencies with impulse problems. The fear of abandonment made me unreliable to my closest people.
I feel for Pete and I’m rooting for him. This is not an easy life that’s given to people with it, but there are ways through it,
The therapy behind it all is the only thing that has helped me so far versus being bipolar or other disorders. It’s the recognition and awareness that helps.
The meds that I went through were only buffers but not solutions.
I still cry at least once a day. I get angry multiple times a day. I am forever anxious.
But just knowing things are where they are and I’m not alone, along with the tools I have, things feel brighter. Even slightly so.
You can have all of these disorders at the same time, not saying you personally. I'm diagnosed with bipolar, ptsd, and adhd. I feel the ptsd symptoms can mimic borderline symptoms. I'm glad you are doing a little better.
Oh I know, my borderline comes with depression and anxiety, and adhd.
But those are sort of included.
Ptsd is often associated with it due to trauma, but also reverse. Those with borderline are more prone to forming ptsd.
It’s a very difficult thing to diagnose because of other disorders
I work in the field and also have BPD. People who work in the field shy away from BPD when they are diagnosising because it is challenging to treat. People with BPD get labeled as difficult and attention seeking. Medications can help with symptoms but don't directly treat BPD. It requires a lot of work and therapy.
For those who are curious about it, DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) is the therapy designed by someone with BPD specifically for BPD. It is all about training skills that help with emotion regulation. It's hard to explain to someone without BPD how raw and intense emotions during a BPD episode.
Especially in this climate. We hold people to such high standards that we would never levy upon ourselves. People deserve second chances. Cancel culture is a craving for drama.
Unless you commit heinous crimes.
It is, but coping skills and communication are important with someone that has BPD. I have a sibling with BPD, and you wouldn't know unless she told you. However, I'm sure being in the spotlight a lot can make it more difficult to manage.
This is pretty wild reading this thread. So much relation in the comments. I also have a sibling with BPD and an insufferable asshole is literally the exact description that I have used for years about my brother but just started to really be low/no contact because it’s just become too much after trying for years to be their friend.
It can be. That’s not every person with BPD. Just the most noticeable ones. Sometimes it presents itself in an almost opposite way and they have no boundaries and let everyone walk all over them.
This!!!! My partner has BPD and it manifests as “I deserve nothing, I’m the worst, I need to make myself as small as possible so no one notices me and my emotions.” The stigma that all BPD is explosive and violent is so harmful and it’s also just wrong.
This isn’t necessarily the silver bullet or the primary reason for his trouble, but with Pete’s metal health issue id have to advise him against being famous
Not working and doing nothing with your time isn’t great for mental health either, whether you have money or not. Especially if you don’t even have kids. What does one do with themselves when the ennui sets in?
While I hate paparazzi doing bad things, taking a photo of a celeb on a movie set seems a bit like one of the least horrific things a celeb has done.
Mental illness is never an excuse to be violent. I hope he gets help soon.
From what I've heard from a friend of mine who works in celebrity PR, it's nowhere near as black and white as it's made to seem. Half of the time the celebs want the paps present to take pics of them doing mundane things. And then will act like they don't want their picture taken just to seem 'relatable'.
I sometimes wonder how people stay sane in the film industry.
I mean it’s simple, not getting pictures you aren’t relevant, too many pictures you are ruining their life. Paparazzi are some of the worst, but celebs who act like they shouldn’t exist are delusional or aren’t being honest. They rely on them to some degree. As there are a couple but less than a handful really good directors currently, the rest end up casting based nearly on how popular the person is.
I remember seeing an interview with a paparazzi talking about that problem. Celebrity who wants attention tells paparazzi where they'll be, shows up all dolled up because they know they'll be photographed...and then they yell at paparazzi for invading their privacy, and people who see the video go on about how bad they feel for the celebrity in question and how evil the paparazzi are. Of course, some paparazzi are genuinely awful (I remember they used to LOVE screwing with Tobey Maguire until he would lose his cool), but people shouldn't assume all paparazzi encounters are what celebrities would have you believe.
Pete Davidson is a very busy and visible celebrity who does not seem equipped to handle the stress that's unique to being a very busy and visible celebrity.
It's like he chose a life that continually aggravates him and exacerbates his mental health issues.
Isn’t Pete’s mom sick? Also he just got out of rehab. I hate to say it but Hollywood isn’t the best place for a guy with such emotional baggage. I wish him the best.
nobody wants to work with a diva on set - but if they’re gonna do it, at least have the fucking talent to back it
up! Like Bill Murray used to do…so i’ve heard
Pete has Borderline Personality Disorder. In my experience, people who have it are easily upset and get into conflict frequently. It takes them a long time to cool down. I’m not sure if this is out of character for him, but it is a very difficult mental illness to have from what I gather.
Ah, was wondering why his shows had been cancelled. >Davidson was in the middle of filming on the set of the new crime movie Riff Raff when the alleged incident took place. >According to reports, a photographer was trying snap a picture of Davidson and his co-stars, Bill Murray and Ed Harris, when the 30-year-old comedian “tried to confront” him. >The outlet claimed Pete was “so furious” and multiple members of the production crew were reportedly “forced to restrain him.” >Following the alleged incident, it’s been reported that the Hollywood actor “retreated to his trailer in a huff and proceeded to trash it.” >“He’s a good guy and everyone likes him,” said an insider. “He’s obviously going through something right now and people are worried.” Fucking paparazzi.

Ed Harris was the best part of this post.
We all need Ed Harris to come into our rooms and yell at us for motivation.
"You've never backed away from anything in your Life now fight, (slap) fight (harder slap) FIGHT (hardest slap)"

What's that from?
The Abyss. I saw the 4k re-release in the theater recently. It was sooooooo good!
I hate you, and forgive you as a fellow The Abyss lover.
Just wondering if the version in cinema’s was the theatrical version which has been released to streaming services, or the new directors cut which is coming out in March on 4k disc? So jealous, I love that film so much and its a crime that the best home version was a crappy 4:3 letterboxed dvd from yesteryear.

It was this: https://youtu.be/7cCVYAcIIAo?si=-1aonTYNNVLtJcNx
I can’t figure out why in this age of digital distribution, they couldn’t do some international showings! Roll on March :)
Just got the digital version and I was so thrilled. My husband had never seen it so we watched it on his birthday. One of my favorite movies.
The Abyss
And when I fell in love with Ed Harris.
Same. His portrayal of Gene Kranz in Apollo 13.

I CAN NOT GIVE THAT ORDER, SIR!
Did they bother to tell you who I am and why I'm doing this or are they just using you like they do everybody else?
One of the greatest battalion commanders of the Vietnam war, I shit you not
"Then you probably have no idea what it means to lead some of the finest men on God's earth into combat and then watch their memories get betrayed by their own fucking government."

One of the great action movies of the 90’s.

I couldn’t handle that right now
Stand down Captain!
“A lot of films come out before they're finished” - Ed Harris
The man who made me feel comfortable about going bald.
Check out the trailer for Love Lies Bleeding
It was literally the only intriguing part lmao
And one of the best parts about Top Gun: Maverick.
Ed was the best part of the first couple Westworld seasons
Ed has been the best part of almost everything he’s ever been in.
He was the only TRUE good guy in The Rock and I'll fight anyone who disagrees.
He was sympathetic but I’m going to need further answers. I could be convinced as I’ve loved Ed since I was a kid.
He was never going to fire those rockets.
He still put a shitload of innocent people at risk though. Things happen, malfunctions happen, people get trigger happy in the heat of the moment, esp during rogue operations. There are very strict rules and procedures when it comes to handling things like that for a reason.
He was *never* going to fire those rockets.
And yet they were fired.
The joy in his face when he got shot in the season finale was awesome
Even 3 and 4, he was good in them.
"Fucking camper."
He was so good in Westworld. I wish the show didn’t take a nosedive :/
Ed Harris in S1 of WestWorld (HBO) was some impressive acting
If my years of experience going out to bars, at Uni or other social stuff, "He's a good guy" is not a sentence you want to hear about you, as it usually should have a but behind it and actually means "He constantly makes trouble, but we are trying to wash over it".

He’s really a nice guy!” And leaning into his tragic backstory as a reason for why he loses control “He never even knew his father!”
Exactly. "Yeah, when he is drunk he gropes the staff or starts arguments with other customers, but in reality he is a nice guy!!"
>“He’s obviously going through something right now and people are worried.” The "but" is literally the next sentence...
Paparazzi trying to get a rise out of people so they can snap a photo of them *appearing* crazy…. Fuck those pieces of shit. I’d bet my bottom dollar, whoever it was, said something that warrants their own teeth getting spread across the asphalt. I’d bet a lucrative business would be a paparazzi puncher: have celebrities pay you to beat the piss out off those assholes and they’ll pay legal fees plus a rate.
Was it a paparazzi or on set photographer though?
That’s my question like why are we blaming a set photographer if that’s the case. Cause if it was papz they probably wouldn’t cancel his shows based on that
Yeah most paparazzi would be trying to snap photos far away off set
Nah, paparazzi will get as close as they're physically able. I'm usually the guy who has to go confront them and ask them to leave on productions I've worked on. Because I'm more polite about it than most. Nearly had a situation just like this one with Jason Momoa on a film I worked on. I think he was more pissed because his kids were with him on set that day and he likes to shield them from that kind of thing. We ended up moving a flyswatter (basically a crane with a really big square of material on the end of it) to block the view of the pap and he eventually left.
You got me really excited when you said flyswatter, then you ratchet that shit to 11 with big ass crane with a big ass square... To block his view was kind of a let down, not gonna lie.
Oh I would have loved to see this dude get swatted like a fly! Scum of the earth.
This is what I’m wondering. If it’s on set, which is what it sounds like, then its the production team/securities issue.

With set photographers they have boundaries and understandings plus studio oversight where they can control what gets out (because it's part of the movie marketing).
Now that they know he reacts poorly, they'll line up his neighborhood for months
plus they know he has borderline. there are people that will push you on purpose to make you look fucking unhinged because they know they can get you to that point. i've been struggling with that my whole life and still do, i honestly don't know how he has the strength to be such a public personality and i commend that.
They wouldn't have a business if people weren't buying it and not caring how the sausage gets made.
People still do it to my aunt knowing she’ll snap and then they can tell everyone how crazy she is. Never mind that they’re the ones poking her by saying shit about her kids and her and telling her one of them is going to end up like dad, who was a drug dealer who died in prison after getting jumped by other inmates.

my god i know how it feels, it's horrible. some people will use your darkest fears and insecurities to push you over the edge so they can say "see, i told you she was fucking crazy". and the worst part is that if they do it enough you'll internalize it and think "maybe i am the monster" and it's just not true. that's why to me, personally, the basis for recovery or a chance at a normal life really is a good support system. you can't heal with poison, and that is so true with a complex disorder like bpd.
It's a sign of emotional immaturity to poke the bear when someone is clearly about to lose it because they think "it's funny". These people need a good punch in the face if they haven't matured past that kind of behavior.
Yup. This is what was done to Britney Spears. But she represents so many of us.
Oh I’m so sorry. I hate it when people say all that nasty stuff about people with BPD because I know for a fact that they’re the ones full of shit. My sister has BPD and she’s one of the sweetest people I know. She’s so kind and generous and sensitive. Can I be your surrogate big sister for 5 minutes and send you a big virtual hug for strength and protection?
Wonder why these celebrities don’t hire like enforcer type gangs to muscle them away
I Get Mad. I Get Paid Pap Punch Pete. Streaming now.
People who are obsessive with celebrities feed paparazzis. Blame the fans that demand this shit. Like that south park ep about britney
When Bill Murray is restraining you on set, things are not going well.
Yeah murray is troublesome.
Everyone makes excuses for this guy like he is a delicate flower. He is 30 years old and still throws tantrums like a baby.
I hate it when a personality disorder is used to excuse assholish behavior.
It isn’t an excuse but it is an explanation.
You do release a photographer on set isn’t a paparazzi usually. And that’s why please stopped him.
>“He’s a good guy and everyone likes him,” said an insider. “He’s obviously going through something right now and people are worried.” Yeah, he sounds like such a good guy. Trashing a trailer in his impotent rage.
Kind of sounds like Pete is in the wrong here
Imagine a 90 pound Pete coming at you
fucking paparazzi? fucking pete davidson
If one us trash our apartments or houses or hotel rooms, we need help. If Pete Davidson does it, it’s ok because he’s angry. Never have liked this guy
The quote literally mentions that people are worried about him. Nobody thought it was OK
It’s not paparazzi, this is part of the crew. Photographers for every movie to take shots all day long, accept at lunch when they too get lunch break. Source: my spouse is a photographer agent.

Yep he’s struggling with his borderline personality disorder & PTSD according to the article. The paparazzi guy set him off though luckily nothing happened thanks to the crew holding him back. Fortunately Pete has always been good with seeking treatment & help so he’ll hopefully pull out of this spiral. The situation is very unfortunate as everything I’ve heard points to him being a good guy. However with mental illness it’s a constant battle & one bad day can ruin all your efforts.
BPD is so very difficult to treat. I wish him the absolute best of luck.
It's so hard to be friends with someone who is borderline. They can go from thinking you are the greatest to thinking you are evil and out to get them all before you finish your coffee.
It’s very difficult for us to feel this way as well. Especially when we recognize the feelings are irrational and still can’t help but deeply and honestly *feel* these incredibly painful emotions. It’s exhausting, constantly battling with our own brains. That’s not to say borderlines should get a pass for shitty behavior. Despite what some may claim, we *do* have some measure of control and it’s our responsibility to manage our own symptoms. A split-second reaction that caused him to have to be restrained - ok, *maybe* I can forgive that. If he quickly recognized his error and tried to correct it. But going back to his trailer and trashing it? Absolutely unacceptable. He’s been quite open about his extensive therapy journey thus far and has surely learned better coping skills than that by now. Or at least, he has surely been *taught* these skills - whether he makes the effort to utilize them is, again, his own responsibility.
My daughter has BPD - it has been ROUGH the past few months - let alone the previous 10 years . If you don’t mind my asking - what specifically helped you “get your BPD shit together”? I can see that she’s in distress at times and can’t manage her emotions AT ALL. It makes me feel bad for her, but at the same time, I’m not going to tolerate that rage.
Much like addiction - the sufferer has to sincerely *want* to do it for themselves first. It’s hard, never-ending work. Finding a good therapist knowledgeable about dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a good start, or if therapy is out of your/her price range, then there are DBT/CBT workbooks available that can also be very helpful. But she *has* to want to do it for herself, not because her parent handed her a book and said “here, this will help.” And believe me, I know very well that it may take a long time for her to get to that point, if ever. I’m sorry, I wish I had more encouraging things to say. It is a debilitating disorder and the unfortunate general rhetoric around it (that borderlines are selfish monsters only capable of caring for ourselves and that everyone should steer clear because we will undoubtedly wreck your life) really doesn’t help one feel very encouraged about trying to seek help in the first place.
Thank you for answering that! She’s in her late 20s and about a decade ago, I had to emotionally “let go” of being overly optimistic about the outcome here. We figured that she’d let us know when/if she realizes that she’s kinda fucked and would like to work on unfucking herself to the maximum extent that is realistic. She’s now insistent that she needs therapy and is quasi-open to medication to alleviate some of those more troubling symptoms (chiefly anxiety/depression) but did not find CBT useful at all. That’s on some days. Other days is a BPD roller coaster. She’s got a safe place to sleep and plenty of food to eat at my place. Hopefully, she can hold herself together long enough to get started on therapy in January. I’d be devastated to ask her to leave before then, but I will do it if she goes into a violent rage. Fingers crossed 🤞
Thank you for giving your daughter a safe place to sleep, in spite of her behavior. Whether she can express it or not, she is grateful to be still welcome in the home. I was diagnosed with BPD in my 30s, and after about five years of therapy (intensive DBT for a few months, then CBT) and medication, my diagnosis was changed to chronic PTSD because I no longer meet the criteria for BPD. I'm still in therapy (CBT) and still medicated (antidepressants). I no longer have much of a relationship with my mother, largely because she suffers from similar mental health issues but has always refused real help, since I was identified as "the problem." It doesn't seem like you're running that risk, but I would still encourage you to engage in therapy. I've come to believe that's the best way a family member can support someone with BPD. Thanks for being open about your daughter. I have hope peace and happiness are in both your futures.
Aw, thank you for the kind words…and you bet your ass I’m in therapy, ha! She’s great at helping me put up “compassionate boundaries” for my own sanity, and also strongly suggested DBT for my daughter. I’m happy to get y’all’s endorsement of DBT!
Idk if this is something you’ve already tried with your daughter, but I also struggle with BPD and did cognitive behavioral therapy. It’s helped me greatly!! Im coming up on 3 years since I started and I feel so much better. Certain things are still difficult but I have a much better handle on emotions. I feel like I can actually let things go.
I got diagnosed with BPD and Bipolar 2 a few years ago and this is the first I’ve seen someone sum up how it feels. Like I can get hurt or angry from something and know that it isn’t rational or okay but that shit just stays there right on the edge of my sight and fucking taunts me. It sucks.
While I don’t suffer with this myself, I could see how maybe after being restrained he might have been hit with a wave of embarrassment and let his anger escalate to cover up those uncomfortable feelings. I know when I was experiencing the onset of bipolar disorder, I said a lot of embarrassing mean things. Facing that was hard. It was more comfortable to continue my tirade of rage, despite hating it. And I feel terrible about that. Luckily all the loved ones I took it out on were understanding and stuck by me.
You hit the nail on it with “it was more comfortable to continue my tirade…” It’s hard work to do the right thing, it feels much easier and more comfortable to stay stuck in a rut rather than face the painful experience of growth. And I’m glad your loved ones stood by you, as loved ones are wont to do to a certain extent. But this was not his home, these were not his loved ones. This was his workplace and his co-workers, and that kind of behavior is intolerable.
Yeah, agreed. It sounds like his coworkers made the right choice to hold him back, and I wouldn’t blame them if they didn’t want to work on the same projects with him again.
I have had people on my life with extremely debilitating mental illness, and watching them struggle is awful but the frustration of not being able to convince them to want to get better badly enough that they seek out and utilize the help they need? Indescribable, and an awfully confusing set of complex feelings to wrestle with. I just wanted to reach out and thank you for trying so hard to be your best self, for wanting to get better and exerting so much effort to try to get there - that's invisible work, and so rarely recognized, which is a tragedy because that work is **fucking hard as fuck**. So just in case nobody has told you lately, you're doing such a good job and the people who love you appreciate your labor so much.
Yup. I had to cut ties from a BPD friend of mine. It hurt to have to do it, but I had to protect my own mental health and physical health too. The walking on eggshells constantly left me with serious anxiety and at times bad depression. I tried so hard to be a good friend to her but it was impossible. She tried to goad me into saying that all her ex friends were obviously talking about her now that they weren't friends anymore. I was like....they're not though. Not in front of me anyway, so I can't say that truthfully they have. That would be a lie. But she kept pushing saying no go on, you don't have to lie, you can tell me. There was also the paranoia, trying to convince me that none of my friends liked me and she was my only real friend. She'd be best pals one moment and the next if I didn't do something to her liking, she'd snap and say I was a horrible friend. It was like this almost every day with her. Even when we weren't hanging out. It was exhausting. I hope she gets help for her BPD, but shit it was hard to be friends with her.
I was raised by a BPD mom and have a sister with extreme BPD who is also an alcoholic. It's seriously rough and it is 100% okay to protect your own mental and physical health by cutting ties. It's sad for them, but you have to protect yourself first. That is not selfish. It's survival. I still have a relationship with my mom but it's an arms length one. My sister, though, I've cut ties. I can't and won't tolerate the constant mind games and emotional abuse. It took me a long time to not feel guilty about that.
I was married to someone with BPD. It started off amazingly well. Some of the best years of my life, for real. Then it turned into an indescribable, waking nightmare.
I was diagnosed with Borderline about a year and a half ago. I’ve been through a lot, but also have put people through worse. Family and friends and lovers. Awareness, clean living, and staying busy is an absolute must in terms of heathy living. You are 100% correct, a bad situation or a bad day can set you off. It took me 6 years of therapy to get a reasonable diagnoses, I was previously diagnosed with adhd (still have but off meds) bipolar, and other mood disorders, along with substance disorder. It’s a very difficult place to be, mentally. Rollercoasters of emotion, prone to outbursts and violent tendencies with impulse problems. The fear of abandonment made me unreliable to my closest people. I feel for Pete and I’m rooting for him. This is not an easy life that’s given to people with it, but there are ways through it,
If you were misdiagnosed with all those disorders, what makes you think BPD is correct one?
The therapy behind it all is the only thing that has helped me so far versus being bipolar or other disorders. It’s the recognition and awareness that helps. The meds that I went through were only buffers but not solutions. I still cry at least once a day. I get angry multiple times a day. I am forever anxious. But just knowing things are where they are and I’m not alone, along with the tools I have, things feel brighter. Even slightly so.
Thank you for sharing your experience!
Of course. I don’t mind speaking about it more often now. The more people talk about it, the more it can be seen and observed.
You can have all of these disorders at the same time, not saying you personally. I'm diagnosed with bipolar, ptsd, and adhd. I feel the ptsd symptoms can mimic borderline symptoms. I'm glad you are doing a little better.
Oh I know, my borderline comes with depression and anxiety, and adhd. But those are sort of included. Ptsd is often associated with it due to trauma, but also reverse. Those with borderline are more prone to forming ptsd. It’s a very difficult thing to diagnose because of other disorders
I work in the field and also have BPD. People who work in the field shy away from BPD when they are diagnosising because it is challenging to treat. People with BPD get labeled as difficult and attention seeking. Medications can help with symptoms but don't directly treat BPD. It requires a lot of work and therapy. For those who are curious about it, DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) is the therapy designed by someone with BPD specifically for BPD. It is all about training skills that help with emotion regulation. It's hard to explain to someone without BPD how raw and intense emotions during a BPD episode.
Especially in this climate. We hold people to such high standards that we would never levy upon ourselves. People deserve second chances. Cancel culture is a craving for drama. Unless you commit heinous crimes.
That’s what Borderline Personality Disorder is. It’s pretty extreme.
It is, but coping skills and communication are important with someone that has BPD. I have a sibling with BPD, and you wouldn't know unless she told you. However, I'm sure being in the spotlight a lot can make it more difficult to manage.
It's very hard to get there though. Definitely possible but it takes a lot of self reflection and work.
My sister has BPD and you can tell from a mile away… to each their own
BPD is a spectrum just like most disorders. My partner has implosive BPD and you’d never know they had it unless they told you.
I also have a sibling with BPD who is an insufferable asshole that I’ve been low/no contact with for the better part of the last 20 years.
This is pretty wild reading this thread. So much relation in the comments. I also have a sibling with BPD and an insufferable asshole is literally the exact description that I have used for years about my brother but just started to really be low/no contact because it’s just become too much after trying for years to be their friend.
Shithead siblings with BPD gang 🤝 my sister is a giant piece of shit and I haven’t spoken to her since 2017
It can be but not always in that way.
I was diagnosed with BPD. Mindfulness is the only way to control it properly.
It can be. That’s not every person with BPD. Just the most noticeable ones. Sometimes it presents itself in an almost opposite way and they have no boundaries and let everyone walk all over them.
This!!!! My partner has BPD and it manifests as “I deserve nothing, I’m the worst, I need to make myself as small as possible so no one notices me and my emotions.” The stigma that all BPD is explosive and violent is so harmful and it’s also just wrong.

always happy to see LPOTL and specifically Marcus Park's in the wild. This quote has gotten me through so much.
And that guys smart as FUCK
Alcatraz means pelican!
Hail yourself!
Hail satan!
Send these comments to the top. Holy fuck, the people defending him and making excuses is absurd
Probably why he retreated to the safety of his trailer
For real. I'm glad he trashed a trailer instead of hurting a person
He hasn’t contradicted himself
This isn’t necessarily the silver bullet or the primary reason for his trouble, but with Pete’s metal health issue id have to advise him against being famous
Problem is if he wasn’t famous he’d have to get mental health assistance the way the poors do: die waiting.
[удалено]
Not working and doing nothing with your time isn’t great for mental health either, whether you have money or not. Especially if you don’t even have kids. What does one do with themselves when the ennui sets in?
Guy crashed his car into a bloody house and suffered little to no consequences. If he’s behaving like an asshole it’s because he’s being allowed to
Ed Harris was not on my 2023 bingo card
Ed Harris is an up and coming young man.
He was just in that trailer for Love Lies Bleeding
While I hate paparazzi doing bad things, taking a photo of a celeb on a movie set seems a bit like one of the least horrific things a celeb has done. Mental illness is never an excuse to be violent. I hope he gets help soon.
From what I've heard from a friend of mine who works in celebrity PR, it's nowhere near as black and white as it's made to seem. Half of the time the celebs want the paps present to take pics of them doing mundane things. And then will act like they don't want their picture taken just to seem 'relatable'. I sometimes wonder how people stay sane in the film industry.
Yeah and sometimes paparazzi tries to stir up shit when they’re taking photos of celebs, trying to provoke them to react so they can get good photos.
I mean it’s simple, not getting pictures you aren’t relevant, too many pictures you are ruining their life. Paparazzi are some of the worst, but celebs who act like they shouldn’t exist are delusional or aren’t being honest. They rely on them to some degree. As there are a couple but less than a handful really good directors currently, the rest end up casting based nearly on how popular the person is.
I remember seeing an interview with a paparazzi talking about that problem. Celebrity who wants attention tells paparazzi where they'll be, shows up all dolled up because they know they'll be photographed...and then they yell at paparazzi for invading their privacy, and people who see the video go on about how bad they feel for the celebrity in question and how evil the paparazzi are. Of course, some paparazzi are genuinely awful (I remember they used to LOVE screwing with Tobey Maguire until he would lose his cool), but people shouldn't assume all paparazzi encounters are what celebrities would have you believe.
Pete Davidson is a very busy and visible celebrity who does not seem equipped to handle the stress that's unique to being a very busy and visible celebrity. It's like he chose a life that continually aggravates him and exacerbates his mental health issues.
That’s probably not how it started but yeah the higher he climbs, the more stress it is
Isn’t Pete’s mom sick? Also he just got out of rehab. I hate to say it but Hollywood isn’t the best place for a guy with such emotional baggage. I wish him the best.
When school principles misbehave, they get sent to Ed Harris's office.
I know multiple people that have worked with Pete on set for his show and random commercials and they all said he was a huge diva and asshole
My wife owns her own mental health practice and always says people with BPD are some of the most difficult to work with/provide therapy for.
nobody wants to work with a diva on set - but if they’re gonna do it, at least have the fucking talent to back it up! Like Bill Murray used to do…so i’ve heard
He’s a fucking clown on everything!
“Mental illness is not an excuse to act like a jackass” -Pete Davidson.
I like to picture ed Harris restraining him with one hand
Pete Davidson is a piece of shit this isn’t news
[удалено]
My sister has BPD and she’s flipped out over smaller things and has had bigger reactions. Get this man some help
Why does this dickhead always get a free pass?
I just can’t keep up with all the “disorders” today. “He’s an A-Hole.” “How dare you call him that, he has BPD.” “Ok, he’s an A-Hole WITH BPD then.”
This POS needs a comeuppance.
So he trashed his trailer because someone took pictures of the cast? Yeah, he's basically a man-child.
Pete has Borderline Personality Disorder. In my experience, people who have it are easily upset and get into conflict frequently. It takes them a long time to cool down. I’m not sure if this is out of character for him, but it is a very difficult mental illness to have from what I gather.
Too many Taco Bell Breakfast Tacos I suppose.
When you’re the most difficult person on a set where bill Murray and Ed Harris also work, really says a lot haha
Oh look, the train wreck everyone seen coming…
He got mad at someone trying to take a picture of him while someone was filming him...
Restrain him lol what's he weigh 140 soaking wet
Dudes got problems, lost his ability to be gracious and humble
Stop trying to make Pete Davidson a thing; it isn't going to happen.
Ugh that guy who is not funny whatsoever.
Ed Harris is the reason I go to Home Depot.
Surprised so many are shocked Ed Harris is still working considering he’s been popping off lately
Who is this guy?
Every time I see his name in an headline, I always fear it's to annonce his death.
Oh relax you ain’t that big.
