      Hi. My childhood was in the Summer of Love. Violent family. I took over my life and became barbarack and no one ever struck me again. If anyone abuses kids they can come to me. I'll flatten them. Later there was a time when all was calm. People suggest I hate women. Its the opposite. I hate that I LOVE WOMEN so much no matter what personality disorders except Narcissisim.

      Explain how we can change BPD being the one mental illness that mental health specialists avoid or flat out won’t treat. How can we get better if we can find treatment?

I want to make awareness in the society about BPD as the country I'm living in doesn't talk much about mental disorders. But I don't know how to start it. It'll be a big help if you could give me some tips.

    Emotional unavailability causes Bpd...usually narcissistic parenting or neglect..which can lead to verbal, sexual or physical abuse, depending on the severity of the toxic caregivers. Usually borderlines are more smothering & not as emotionally neglectful...we usually give too much....just the boundaries arent there, you constantly have to check yourself as a parent with Bpd...& at least we have a high chance of recovering & hold ourselves accountable for our actions, even if it's difficult.

    14:37 She almost hit the mark. Bipolar is totally different to BPD. Bipolar episodes last months usually (whole chunks of the year), not days or hours as in BPD. Bipolar also has a lot of schizophrenic symptoms, like delusions of grandeur or disorganised speech, which BPD does not.
    But the biggest giveaway is that BPD mood swings are triggered by some small thing someone said to the person that gets taken personally. So in that sense, they are very immediate. This can immediately change their whole day around, for good or for bad.

    I was diagnosed with (major) personality disorder in Jan 1982 at the age
    of 17 years old after a very traumatic childhood. I was mentally
    abused by my step mother at the age of 6 & 7 years old. I spent 10
    years in a childrens home after my step mother abandoned me on the
    street at the age of 7 years old in 1971. My real father betrayed me,
    because he allowed my stepmother to put my in a childrens home. My real
    mother would not get me out of the childrens home after she found out
    where i was, and her words were actually "he's better off where he is".
    So i guess that's where the overwhelming fear of abandonment comes
    from. Dissociation was a major problem through my school years all i did
    was daydream. My life as been a total mess i'm now 55 years old.

    Wow! Thanks for telling my story. My youth is full of damage, like yours, that feels so real today that it could have happened last week to me.
    For soooo long I just thought I was that bad kid who turned into a bad young adult who became a lameass adult. I was told over and over that I was like throwing good money after bad. I internalized my anger & hate at myself which I believe did the most damage. I’m still untangling those ingrained rituals today.
    I sought treatment for depression at 28. At 35, due to being hit by a drunk driver, I sought help for PTSD. After that it snowballed into anxiety, then major recurring depression w/ anxiety disorder...and at age 49 I was diagnosed w/ BPD. I felt like I was a massively horrible human because hardly any mental health specialist wants to treat BPD and meds can only treat the symptoms. It’s like a hit or miss drug cocktail. Thank goodness a doc suggested a genome test for drug compatibility. It was a life saver.
    So here I sit at 50, a weird mashup of wreckage & adventure. I just want to get back on the path to be the person I was supposed to be.

    This interview is amazing! My only experience with a borderline person was my mother and she had zero insight with constant denial and blaming everyone else for everythiing, including her own behavior. This video gives me some hope and also really changes my perception of BPD - this girl has incredible insight and self-awareness, something I had no idea could be possible for someone with this diagnosis. The only question I have is whether you can really expect the average person with BPD to have insight into their behavior and emotional dysregulation - with my mother it seems completely hopeless and impossible. I wish there was some way to help her, but the denial and deflection tendencies are so intense.

      You should go for it! It’s always interesting to hear other people’s experiences. I myself ran away to New York City at 18 with just $350 in cash. At the time, I had never been to any Northeast or Midwest states before in my life. Only Southern, Western and West Coast states. I also didn’t know anyone in New York at the time and had no family there that I knew of. Now I know lots of people there. I stayed in Youth shelters and a girl’s group home. Always got kicked out for having alcohol though. Me and my friends would stay out all night long. Ended up institutionalized in 2 separate psych wards while in NYC, met chill people around my age while I was there. Shoplifted in Queens, the Bronx and (mainly) Manhattan- especially in Times Square with my friends I met out there. We mostly stole liquor and new clothes. Smoked weed everyday, drank almost everyday. Hospitalized for blacking out and passing out on the streets of Manhattan a few times. Fast forward to now. I’m almost 20 and it’s been a year since I’ve been to NYC. I’m going back because I’m fed up of my family and I’m gonna have to stay in youth shelters and youth group homes again. Round 2 here we go. In about 10 days I’m out!! This time I won’t be tricked into coming back home!!

You are a gift from God to SO many people! I have been praying for help for almost a year since I realized there was something more wrong with me than just an anxiety disorder. I, too, was diagnosed with bi-polar and knew it was not the right diagnosis. I have been seeing a therapist and psychiatrist for 5 years, and NO ONE ever mentioned BPD. I just happened to see a video from psych2go on UA-cam talking about it. Then, I searched further on UA-cam to see the differences between bi-polar and BPD. I now feel like I finally have the right diagnosis and can go forward with a plan. Thank you again. You are an answer to my prayers. ❤️

    As much as I respect your privacy Sammy, it is EXTREMELY helpful to know some specifics in order to gauge levels of toxicity for people that may be on a lesser spectrum of BPD. This is because even though some may have experienced less traumatic severity we can still experience desire to cut off family and this would help gauge whether or not that is appropriate. Not at all prying to request or complain about lack of specifics just felt like this is an important point.

Therapy scares me to let anyone close to me anymore. I trusted a person i believe was a friend. 5 yrs I didn't realize I was never in his life.. He didn't even treat me like a person at all . he lol was my whole life.. He never claim to know me at all .. He was never my friend.. I had no clue. !! He just used me.. Kept it hid from people for 4 .. Hardest thing to let go . is a person who i never had.. His head games.. Triggered my personalities. He called it nothing but crazy babble.. He ignore me . I go nuts. Cause I didn't know why.. I would relive traumatized me for days.. All my personalities would come out.. An hate me.. I have no clue what all I say. I just know it's not good. People get negative to me.. Hurt me I don't understand why. I try so hard to be good to people.. But I been abused all my life . my mom says I'm fine I just freak out some times stop it.. Idk sorry I'm babbling. An bothering being a burden .. I don't think I even know how to comunicate anymore.. Sorry I have no support system.. An very greatful u bring attention to what I have only been called crazy an told get over it.. I'm trying so hard to do my self care . an came across your vidios. Cause I'm so messed up.. But I do live in a safe place I can call home.. I don't get beat on no more.. I make little tiny crosses from dead dogwood trees. Help my mind stop replaying traumas in my head. An try an live another day.. I call them pocket crosses around the world . helping people smile. Share across . cause people can't see my scares . makes my life very hard. But I take 2 tiny little dead sticks.. That most see is dead has no purpose uses or meaning to it anymore.. Make crosses with them . An give them to people along with the ledgen on the dogwood tree.. That's the tree they claim JESUS was sacrificed on. An when people smile an Exsept them . they put life back into those little tiny dead sticks.. They are how i get through life.. Trying to help awareness for the mentelly disabled an abused.. Cause life is hard .. When u don't look abused or crazy.. I hide my tears . cause people ain't cared for years. Just think I'm wierd.. If I talk about me.

I'm different, but I sure as heck ain't crazy. 😉 People used me and hurt me, too. I'm so sorry you went through such hard times.
      Like you, I'm in my early 50s, just turned 52. Time goes so fast. You say you don't let anyone close to you anymore, but you do. You have a friend. You have Jesus. He's always with you. You are never alone.
      I'm different. I don't trust anyone either. I sure trust Jesus. He's my rock. He's kept me alive when I didn't want to be.

    I was 20 when I realized that I needed help, but the help I got did not recognize the full extent of my issues. It wasn't until about the age of 30 that I got mis-diagnosed with bipolar 2. I didn't go on meds until the age of 33, and during a stay in the psych unit when I was 40 I finally got diagnosed with BPD. Unfortunately my psychiatrist does not believe that diagnosis is right. As mean as that hospital psychiatrist was to me, I believe he was right. In fact, I had my suspicions about BPD even before I got that diagnosis, because I felt there were things I was struggling with that the hypomania diagnosis didn't cover, and I was realizing that my mood swings were happening within a day or 2, not weeks or months. I'm not even sure how to bring this up again with my psychiatrist, because although I have the fear of abandonment issues and instability in relationships, for the most part I am not outwardly angry or hostile toward the people I feel have abandoned me. I tend to internalize my anger and self harm physically and emotionally rather than take out my anger on other people. If I feel abandoned by someone I might get really angry at them and yell and scream in my car, but never to their face, because I am afraid that my anger would result in further abandonment. Every day feels like a freaking rollercoaster because I'm always hoping for reassurance that I am the other person's beloved, and if I feel like their words or actions are not reassuring, my mood will plummet. But I am so good at hiding my feelings that I think people have no idea just how much emotional pain I am in.

    Most people with BPD are very anxious.
    My mom was very unstable and my dad was abusive towards his women.
    I thankfully didn’t turn out like this. I suffered from depression in my late teens/early 20s and then overcame it. I’m quite a stable person and quite sensible. I love myself too much to ever allow myself to be unstable.

    A point on going to a GP and how many of them try to hand out prescriptions instead of sending someone to a mental health professional- my doctor's clinic is supposed to work with my mental healthy clinic and have specific bridges to keep the two sides connected on the patients. However, when I wated to get back into therapy and was talking to my GP about where to go, she wanted me to see the psychiatrist at that mental health clinic and get with a therapist there as well. When i first started talking to my new therapist, she told me their psychiatrists will not see anyone if they have no first tries different prescriptions with their GP. And the jut seems so...backwards and potentially dangerous to me.

I also want to wish anyone suffering with this illness the best for the future to find some inner and outer peace and happiness take care.

    Thank you so much for these videos! I met a man in February. He Told me he loved me on our second date. By our fourth date he wanted to marry me. A couple months later he gave me a ring bought me a $3000 couch and then soon moved in with me. We got married July 31. Less than two months later I found out he had a kid and lied to me about the girl he was living with when we first started dating. My family and friends hate him. He moved away to work. I don’t think he knows he has bpd but I am convinced he does. I want this to work so bad. But after he put the second hole in my wall broke my Xbox controller and broke my TV my parents will never except the fact of me wanting to be with him again!! I never knew about his bpd until now. I know I can’t change him or make him hole but I now understand him way more and he no longer has to live with the lie of having a daughter. Please help

    I am a mother with bpd and PTSD with generalized anxiety. Your story reminds me of myself to a t with being misdiagnosed and wanting to help myself and researching about myself. You also remind me of my daughter, and she will have nothing to do with me. And as far as you not pointing fingers. Actually you blame your mother a lot. I dont know her but I was in therapy and took meds on my own for bipolar1 and had bad reactions to a lot of meds because of wrong diagnosis. I love my daughter with all my heart and so wish she would understand that now she has it and like you knows I have it. Why ...,? I want to know do you point the stigma at your mother. And not understand what and how your mother felt or went through. You say your not going to be like her. But you are and you have abandoned her. And point the finger. They should edit your mother out of it before putting you on the pedestal and spokeswoman for bpd.
