How are you supposed to know what beating, or getting over, BPD looks like if you don't have a picture or idea of what it is? In mental health we don’t discuss what success looks like, but we should. We tend to discuss problems, harms, and hurts. There is benefit to knowing this, building insight and understanding, so you know what to look for as you grow and develop. However, it’s just as important to see and gain understanding into what it looks like when you’ve overcome your issues and beat BPD, as it is when your looking to identify it.
Many people have asked me to help them gain an understanding of what it looks like when someone has overcome BPD. First off, it is possible and second we’re going to go through the criteria in this video and I’m going to explain what it looks like when someone has beaten BPD!
There are 9 criteria related to BPD wil be discussed; you only need 5 or more to qualify for the diagnosisbut that's not important here as we're going to go over ALL 9!! I’ve been fortunate to work with some clients who have overcome and beaten their BPD. It took time, persistence, and the understanding that knowledge is empowerment to take their life back. If they did it, you can too.
