In this panel session, we're diving into a fascinating and important topic: how Cluster B personality disorders and the traits associated with them intersect with kink and BDSM. This panel is a space to openly explore how mental health challenges and identities influence, and are influenced by, kink practices, dynamics, ethics, and communities.

We'll discuss topics like stigma, self-awareness, consent, and how to maintain mental wellness within kink spaces. Whether you're new to these conversations or a seasoned community member with a Cluster B disorder yourself, you'll gain insights into how these subjects can weave together in ways that are empowering, complex, and deserving of respect.
