I love to read about different mental issues and personality disorder and came across BPD but I didn’t really understand it. And now I really wanna understand it as it has peaked my interest. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.

I work with sufferers of BPD. Although it would seem some people can lead totally functional lives with BPD others are borderline criminally insane and require support to live.

Im no expert. But its the inability to control your emotional range. So its either low, depressed or elated, confident. There doesn’t seem to be a happy medium and from my experience it frustrates the hell out of anyone who has it.

I work with paranoid, organic, delusional schizophrenics, people with brain injuries, other disorders but BPD is worse than them all as it can’t be treated effectively.
