So, I don't want to be the tyrannical dictator some people think us Mods are, but this thread seems like in need of its own rules As discussed weeks (and months...) ago, misogyny will not be tolerated on LanaBoards. That goes from trying to apply the Golden Rule to her ears to assuming she doesn't know who she is when she's single (which is outdated to think as she literally just released a poem about knowing who she is after getting out of toxic relationships). Mental health is a serious topic and I'm sure many members from here do suffer from disorders/issues, just like most of the world population (I myself suffered from eating disorders all my life), so I don't think implying Lana is either bipolar or borderline or whatever and then saying she shouldn't have children because of this is nice by any means, and it's also triggering for those struggling with these diseases. The member who said this got a WP. Please be careful and tactful with your posts!

...i think it's kinda strange and unfair to assume that somebody has a personality disorder because it appears as though they pick up on the interests that their partner has.

Guys ya'll aint shrinks just because you took a semester of psychology in HS. or college.

To be fair, I personally believe it's best if people think very carefully about having kids if they do have mental disorders (I myself have plenty and choose not to have children for that reason), BUT we really don't know Lana, so it's unfair to say that she shouldn't have kids. I know Lana has some bumps, but overall I do feel like she's a well put together woman. She has a successful career, friends, a house, a family etc. She's self sufficient and loving. Can we not make such harsh judgements about her without actually knowing her as a person? We as fans only get a peek of what she's truly like and what she desires in life, and it seems foolish to pin a disorder on her

We’re seriously claiming that lana has no personality of her own when she’s clearly very introspective and were literally In this forum because we enjoy her art which is deeply about herself and how she thinks and behaves ? Of course she has a personality y’all are crazy. She wouldn’t have one of the most obsessive fanbases if she was bland edit: and all of this was coming about bc she posted about fantasy football which is pretty common for most people to be involved with where I’m from

None of us really knows what goes on inside the inner workings of her mind and of course, her personal life. She shares what she chooses to share. I'm her age, and honestly I can relate to her on a few levels. Ultimately I just hope she finds happiness, peace and stability. Only a qualified medical professional can diagnose someone. One of my exes is actually a borderline personality and it took multiple doctors and multiple years for him to actually receive that diagnosis. He was initially diagnosed with ptsd. I spent a few years in therapy after that relationship to sort myself out, because my ex constantly switched through the different cycles of Love bombing me and then devaluing me , casting me aside. It was the constant up and down, back and forth that was difficult to live with. My heart goes out to anyone on here who either suffers from BPD or has a loved one suffering from it. On a lighter note, does anyone follow Rob on Instagram? He is so adorable and I love all of his cute posts with his different tropical Hawaiian shirts! He also posts really sweet inspirational things which is always refreshing to read. I definitely recommend following him on Instagram if you're not already!

Go back to discussing how her ears are too small for her to be classicly beautiful or something.

everybody in this thread needs a blunt

Ma’am this is the Instagram thread.

Woah! Stop dude, just stop! Dude, what? I'm legit angry borderline pissed with the way you chose to end your shit of a post. Where's your PhD in Psychology? How close are you to Lana? Exactly. Stop talking bullshit, please. Who are YOU to say that it's best if someone doesn't have a kid at all? Damn, what kind of crap. You're new here but you've taken the prize of the worst member already. What was all this misogynistic shit I've just read?

I'm not sure if some of you guys don't go outside and socialize or just don't really get it but picking up traits from the people you surround yourself with the most is a completely natural thing and has zero association with any sort of mental illness, how do you think people grow and further develop their personalities? humans are products of their environment.

there’s so many things wrong with this post

this thread needs to stop being bumped with whatever y’all r talking about (it’s so much text omg) cause it makes me think she posted something for a sec n i get that rush but then i find out it’s just people writing essays about whatever <\3

Jesus, the way y’all love picking apart this woman. I totally get the whole “not liking everything she does just because we stan her” but.... cmon really? To sit there and talk down on her just because y’all think she becomes who she dates? Like can we not? That’s like the dumbest thing to be mad at... no offense to anyone but.... yikes. Y’all don’t know her personally and probably never will, let it gooooo.

so I’ll throw back BOTTLES BOTTLES BOTTLES when I’m feelin low wanna drown away my SORROW SORROW SORROWS wanna lose my mind don’t think about to- MORROW MORROW MORROW gonna close my eyes n throw it away cuz nothing feels better than a sweet escape the power this song would have at one of her shows... the POWER

I’m really disgusted by the conversation I just read. Who the f*ck are you to come on this website and judge her for things you have no idea about? We don’t know Lana. We don’t know the relationships she has. We only know tiny bits that she chooses to share with us. Get a f*cking life and stop talking shit about her. Get outta here with your pseudo-psychologist asses

as someone who has been diagnosed with BPD for four years, I feel comfortable saying that this disorder is something that can be overcame and it shouldn't stop you from having children. people with BPD are so loving, they can make the best parents. if you are working on yourself in therapy and making progress, having a baby is totally okay

this thread is craaaaaazy

The way some of you were talking about Lana a few pages back is honestly disgusting. It's one thing to discuss her personality, but if you no longer "have time for her shit" or whatever, why the fuck are you still here? Go.

How about you mind your own business and go to war.

I agree, I’ve never heard that being a symptom personally. If anything people with personality disorder can be quite rigid. She definitely has some traits of a borderline personality, but we are not psychiatrists or really have the right to state she has it. Regardless it should not change how she is viewed - we know she has some mental health issues like anxiety and panic.

Ya’ll jump to some serious conclusions with this girl.

She literally only posted a video watching football with some guy... How is that pathetic? We don't know everything about her lmao and doing something with someone you like because they like that is not pathetic at all.

GO AUWFF

I’m starting to find Jack to be a nerdy little irritating shit.

Every time I click on this thread I lose brain cells

What the...?

llamadelgay when we find u

not you villianizing lana as a helpless CHILD

I think of the other way round: she's a chameleon artist, yes, and she likes to try on a different persona (nothing wrong with that)...and then it makes sense she dates someone who vibes with whatever she's doing. She's dated some really different guys, and none of them are remotely as famous or successful as she is (except for whatever that Axl Rose moment was). I see them following her around, sometimes literally on tour, not the other way. She does her own thing. To put it kinda New Age-y, she attracts the kind of guy who responds to the energy she's putting out there.

Oh ffs. You just cannot handle people discussing things that you don't wish to discuss, and funnily enough, the number one thing you take issue with is people discussing her boyfriends. That's very interesting to me, because I've observed that a certain type of "fan" (for want of a better word) doesn't like people discussing them either, as it makes them feel threatened and like they have competition. You're totally okay with discussing everything else, including her homes, her cars, her medical history, you name it. DM me or don't, leave or don't, but stop acting like you're better than everyone else. Sorry to everyone else for the drama but ... I fucking can't. ETA: Honestly I only skimmed this when I wrote that ^ because who the fuck cares, but (again): I am not Russian, however, the generalisation here is disgusting. You are accusing Russian people in general of being homophobic and citing it as the reason for people on this forum disliking you? Get a grip.

Tbh if lana wants to involve herself in her partner's interests I don't think that's such a bad thing especially given how she has a very busy and famous lifestyle and she probably wants to show her significant others that she cares about their interests since she might not have that much time and energy to dedicate to them

new bf is hot. and when she has a hot bf, it somehow makes her hotter. barrie, franceso, and g eazy had her looking fiiiiiine. and then sean aged her ten years.

just imagined charli doing a freakshow/britney esque track produced by sophie. UGHHHHHHH i can not wait for new charli music.

Look, I think we can all agree Lana is... eccentric to say the least, but to use possible mental health issues against her & being "sick of her shit"? That's where it becomes less of a discussion and more of a weird personal takedown. If she bugs you so much for being how she's ALWAYS been, you being on this forum says more about YOUR issues.

Can someone make psychoanalyzing lana del rey thread.....

Ok dr.melfi pack it up

honestly guys, being a chameleon is a symptom of Borderline Personality Disorder. I am NOT saying she has it, it's literally just her enjoying a football game. also, people don't depersonalize others because they aren't meeting their standards. that doesn't even make sense

That's lowkey what my psychology teacher (an actual shrink) told us in college. She was saying it jokingly, but she was def shading us and knew what was up.

I don’t think she bothers, I think she reads twitter a bit clearly. It would be too stressful for her to read our mindless obsessive drivel this forum.

I've moved some of the bickering in here to the Random Conversation Thread x

The girls need to bad just like LUCY LIU! And Come to my Party properly mixed in HQ... Lmao

I identify so much with some of the things that Lana is saying. Not the end of the interview with Lana and Jack basically congratulating each other. But, for example, the need for feminism to create a space for what Lana calls "fragility" (I think "sensitivity" is more to the point); as well as the need for earnest, well-meaning people to speak truth in a culture that is obsessed with keeping up appearances. I really think a large part of it is different personality types. Some people are amazing at diplomacy, and that is really a valuable skill. There is definitely a place for putting your best foot forward. But there is also a place for speaking the hard truths even when it interrupts the constant striving for positive spin. For some of us, it's less important to make ourselves look good, and more important to participate in "iron sharpening iron" -- actually STRENGTHENING each other. "Faithful are the wounds of a friend." And it saddens me when that hard work is dismissed as not putting in the work of relationship-building. Frankly, to someone who believes loving others IS telling them the truth, it can seem that those who are focused on image management are the ones not putting in the hard work needed for healthy relationships. But again, I think it's partly a matter of different personalities having different strengths. I wish we could all learn to celebrate the good in each other, even when it's different, rather than settling for building up self by tearing down others. I'm not there yet. Sometimes when I feel that "my way" is getting stomped on, it makes me want to see only the evil in the "other way." After all, when you're repeatedly criticized for doing right, it only makes it that much harder to see your true flaws. As far as Lana thinking she's right about everything, I don't see her comments as saying that at all (though the we-always-understood-everything-going-on comments were getting a bit much). I think she's just learned not to fall into the trap of pretending both parties are always somewhat to blame (as someone in this thread said earlier). Part of "keeping up appearances" is sometimes "admitting" to something you didn't do, just to support your own image of reasonableness, or to create the illusion of teamwork. Couples' counseling is a prime example. But I never got anywhere in therapy until I learned to say, "No, actually this isn't something we both do. This is something YOU do, and I'm not going to let you turn it around on me." There's a lot of social points to be scored by "taking responsibility." But for someone who's seeking wholeness, if that means taking responsibility for someone else's wrongdoing, it's just not worth it anymore. So I think that's what Lana means when she says she's an underdog. She's going for integrity, as she sees it ("fragility" or sensitivity, an earnestness), over image management in the form of power feminism. And in an industry founded on appearances, it means in that sense she's going to be put at a disadvantage when the attacks come. I think Lana is very brave.

We need Lorde to do something because she hates Lorde and if Lorde would stop frolicking around New Zealand and actually release new music, Lala might feel competitive and start trying instead of having this idea that anything and everything she does is so effortlessly marvellous. The answer is Lorde.

Also to whoever said Rick is a yes man: no he isn't, according to Lana herself. In a radio interview last year she said that she enjoyed working with Jack because it was nice to work with a producer who didn't tell her that things "suck". She picked Jack because he IS a yes man.

Secret (Shh)

first she throws solita away and now this...

@Elle I just wanna say that it’s amazing how you transcribed this interview when we only got pictures of it - that takes true dedication and it doesn’t go unnoticed you’re the best.
