they don’t understand me. they'll view it as an excuse when i need it for my well being. or they'll force me by threatening to take my phone away, etc. idk what to do or say to them. they preach wanting to help me but the do they opposite of what i need to get better

Honestly, my heart of hearts is saying to put the phone down and don’t touch it again until you’ve finished helping your mom clean the house. But I don’t know you and your situation, nor am I a medical expert in BPD. So, all I can really offer is my best wishes.
