How would you explain what borderline personality disorder is to someone who doesn’t have it?
In: 1068
It’s an emotional regulation disorder. Things that might hurt us a little emotionally or make us feel loved will make an individual with BPD feel extreme forms of those emotions. This creates stress in their social relationships which feeds into their BPD symptoms. Internally it can lead to intense feelings of loneliness and abandonment which can cause self harm or suicide.
