supercapacitor - P MOSFET turning on before gate threshold


I was simulating a P MOSFET, and for turning a P MOSFET on we need gate to Source voltage less then its threshold voltage. as per below simulation circuit at start VGS= 0, then there is no way mosfet get turn on,because it need at least -2V as per datasheet gate thershold to turn it on. but simulation i am getting 4V arroud, whats wrong here. enter image description here


Some Might say i applied voltage VDS=5V but for P MOSFET it should be negative, but i saw some circuit where they used this type of connection where R1 is just replaced by a supercap.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
