    99. Healing In Borderline Personality Disorder Relationships

    Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is like diving into a new world—think of it as the quantum physics of emotions. To truly understand a person with BPD, you have to leave your sense of reality and journey into borderline territory. While navigating relationships can be challenging, there's plenty of hope. This week, we’ll explore the emotional and behavioral patterns of BPD and how they often appear in relationships. I have some experience to share on identifying emotional triggers, using effective communication, and taking care of yourself.  Resources mentioned in today's episode: "Stop Walking on Eggshells: Taking Your Life Back When Someone You Care About Has Borderline Personality Disorder" Psychology Today National Domestic Violence Hotline Child Abuse Hotline Suicide Prevention Hotline Want more content?
