Now I will say, you can’t control what others say about you (even though words hurt, trust me I know. I have anxiety and I still overthink things my middle school bullies have said to me) but spreading rumors is a different story. Try to get your manager involved. What’s the worst that can happen? Luckily your coworker gets separated for spreading false rumors and being a bully.

Try to confront them but also have a manger there as a witness to diffuse the tension so it doesn’t look like you’re looking for a problem. Or, if you’re close with your manager you could text them outside of work and let them know what’s going on and your manager will incite the meeting, themself so (again) it doesn’t look like you’re trying to start a problem.

If you’re bold (which I am not, nor am I suggesting it) you could do a one-on-one meeting with your coworker, yourself.

I honestly hope you feel better and I’m sure you’re not “creepy”. My sister has BPD so I can’t even imagine your struggles.

Cheers.

Hi fellow borderline here! I’m so sorry this is happening to you. Yes talk to people who are saying things about you in front of your manager. BPD manifests differently for everyone whom has it and people just don’t understand nor wish to understand people like us. I hope this works for you and don’t be afraid to continue advocating for yourself!

It's rough out there and it's rough in the sbux too. I'd casually speak to your ssv, manager, asm, or whomever you feel comfortable talking to so this can get nipped in the bud. The faster this gets taken care of, hopefully the faster you'll start to become at ease. Not cool to be in a hostile work environment. If all else fails, ask for a transfer.

Do you feel comfortable talking to this person? Or through text?

Schedule a meeting with your manager and tell her/him the facts. There is no shame in mentioning or documenting negative comments or bullying. But your manager needs to know.
