As an almost middle aged person who’s lived with BPD my whole life, we have to learn to cope with emotions on our own and not subject our loved ones to the extremes we experience. We can do this by changing our reaction behavior every time we are triggered until over time it becomes the default way we react. I learned to separate myself from loved ones when I’m splitting. Found value and self worth in how capable I am to love, be present and have empathy for others. It is truly unique! I Learned to never abandon myself by strengthening my personal boundaries and holding people accountable for treating me kindly. Always treating others with kindness to set the standard that is healthiest and the least triggering for me. When you want to lash out, please consider not validating the stigmatization about us. We are the ones we must never abandon. We are the ones we must always favor and love in the amazing way that we do. You can do it! One day at a time. Don’t give up. It gets easier to do over time.

@@88yaz88 It warms my heart that you found this message helpful. Learning about BPD, it’s symptoms and defining characteristics is useful to understand where we need to focus our healing. For example the core difference between us those with out BPD is our fleeting or lacking sense of self. That’s what makes us need others and create unhealthy attachments. We have to create our own sense of self and hold it down no matter who we are close to at any time. It’s a life times work in progress but like I said, it gets easier to do over time. Eventually people notice how good we are at loving ourselves and it’s inspiring to them. Let’s use our trauma to change the cycle of abuse that caused it. I have a list of values I follow everyday I’m happy to share: Defend happiness- when we are feeling defensive are we defending something that causes unhappiness? If so find the happiness and defend that instead. Love is always greater than fear, love enables choice always, choose love in all your actions- we will always defeat fear with love. Nothing is stronger than Love! We should never act upon feelings of fear or we will loose. We are not loving if we don’t enable choice. If someone want to go we support them to leave to be truly loving and un defeat able. In the face of loss, we can always find things to be grateful for- nothing is permanent so we have to accept that, and be grateful for the time we had. Trust that there will be more to come and be ready to continue that cycle of gain and loss.

"I would rather never love anybody or have anybody love me than be abandoned" I strongly concur. I live with BPD as well and it is not easy to let in and receive love knowing that people can always change their minds and leave. The leaving is the fear realized and it is excruciatingly painful. The deep penetrating feelings of unworthiness are so true. There are a few things she shared that really hit home and I agree that grounding the person with validation and for me physical touch (bear hug) is healing and reassuring. I'm an introvert so my self harm is mostly internal through many extremes such as starvation or binge eating, hateful thoughts of myself and hateful self talk. Only sometimes do I hit, pinch ,scratch or pull my hair. Overall I can really related to her experiences and pray only the best for her.

I used to have borderline traits from c-ptsd (got better with a lot of counseling, work, support etc). I feel like the needing validation for your emotions before anything else makes sense with how BPD usually originates from early attachment trauma where our caregivers didn't consistently recognize and mirror back our emotions. It's kind of slowly replacing those early experiences with new ones where you're seen.

Never liked the phrase 'they're just doing it to get attention' applied to any sort of self-harm or threat of self-harm, whatever the underlying mental state might be. As if there's something wrong with a human being in distress wanting attention anyways. We tell people knowing they have a problem is the first step to a solution, and then if somebody shows up with a problem, we invalidate them. You don't want people to self-harm, but you do want them to want attention if they're driven to self-harm, that's the last thing you want stigmatized, you don't want to find out too late and everybody's left standing around saying 'but they seemed so happy, I had no idea.'

When I was at mental hospital at 15 for 3 months I developed a close friendship with a 17 year old girl with BPD (and OCD). She definitely had her anger outbursts from time to time but it didn’t really affect me because I knew it was nothing personal or intentional but of course if someone is affected by behavior like that, that’s valid too. But for me it wasn’t too bad. I have had angry outbursts like that when I had really bad agitated depression before. I once broke a glass window by banging my head during meltdowns so I think I can really understand what it’s like to have all those feelings inside of you that you don’t know what to do with. She was one of the sweetest, most empathetic, caring, attentive, bubbly and loving people I’ve ever met. I still think about her from time to time. So for anyone with BPD, know that there are many people who don’t just see your for your BPD.

I 100% empathize with and love my sibling with BPD, and I think this video is so honest, but it's important to have accountability as well. Pain from harm done with no bad intentions hurts the same as if it's done with bad intentions. If the person with BPD is able to get help, therapy, medication, and truly do the work and stick with it, they deserve every second third and 100th chance in the world - but with caution. Now as an adult I know at which point I need to walk away and reconnect with my sibling later on, but it doesn't heal the trauma from growing up with beatings, insults, and constant angry outbursts, interspersed with love and friendship and fun. I had both the best sibling and the worst one, and they were the same person. These relationships can be very hard and traumatizing. Now as adults I can say we have a great relationship and are friends, as I have dealt with my trauma and them with theirs. But if you have BPD, please don't sweep under the rug the pain of those in your life due to your good intentions or lack of control. No disorder is an excuse to abuse others, and the sooner you are able to comprehend that, the sooner you'll be able to build strong relationships.

The awareness of the 'unreasonable emotions' was also something I didn't realise, learnt something today.

My girlfriend has BPD. I can empathise with everything she is saying. It's like any other relationship, about love, patience and coping with each other. The important part is when they go in "episodes" is to understand it's coming from deep and mostly very painful trauma and like she said, that it's nothing personal. Obviously the intensity can make it feel that way. Perhaps you need a stronger backbone once and while but for me it's totally worth the love i get in return. :p And to be honest i have characteristics myself. Some say it's impossible. But it's really all about the right communication and allowing space at the right times. The second one especially to avoid major drama! The first one to come out the drama in peace and love. In the end we just love and protect each other and that's all that matters. :)

This comment means so much to me as i've been speaking to someone whos recently been diagnosed with BPD. We've only been speaking for two months but theres something about her i find so special and hope to grow something out of. I've only seen and felt what feels like the tip of the iceberg when it comes to her bad days, but even then when shes not having a bad day she's one of the sweetest people I know. To hear you say this makes me feel better in knowing that it will be hard but worth it, because honestly I can see myself feeling that exact way.

"I would rather never love anybody or have anybody love me than be abandoned"..This. THIS is how I would describe my bpd in one sentence. It's also the cruelest aspect of bpd for me. I feel emotions and love SO deeply that it hurts. I've tried to be a normal person but as soon as I start to get close to someone, the panic takes over, and I self sabotage. If I pursue a meaningful, emotional connection, then I will be suicidal WHEN they abandon me. So I don't do relationships. This means a life of solitude, but at least I won't have to experience that agony

I was diagnosed at University when studying to be a psychologist. The psychiatrist in his diagnosis expressed concern at my choice of profession. I ripped his diagnosis up and carried on. I went on to work with abused traumatised adults and children. My BDP gave me the gift of knowing and understanding my clients and having ‘unconditional positive regard’ for each and every one. I grew to love, appreciate and understand my condition and see it as a gift in order to support my clients to achieve their own potential. I would never give up my BPD it’s my drive, my passion and my source of love. I control it, it no longer controls me.

Your comment resonates so much with me. I ended a 7month relationship last week during one of my 'episodes' when he was going out to a social event. The feelings of abandonment and rejection had been building up all day. As he was going I totally lost it, although a part of me did know I was being irrational. Looking back , if he had hugged me or reassured me there might have been a different outcome. I feel like sending him this video so he understands why I acted like I did. But I wont because of the fear of rejection.

Its for the betterment of myself and others that I just never get close to anyone else again.

Not only do these videos educate us about the different conditions and disorders, but through Chris, they also teach us how to appropriately treat and respond to people suffering from these conditions. If I meet someone suffering from a certain condition, I may be afraid to hurt their feelings in any way, unintentionally of course. I learned that if you struggle to make the appropriate response, you always ask them first what to say or what to do for them or if they need help. Like when Chris asked her: "what would be the appropriate way for me to respond to that?" I find it interesting that he asked. This taught me something.

Just because the behaviour isn't intentional doesn't mean it isn't abusive. People with BPD deserve love and support. That does not mean that if you have a friend/loved one/family member with this disorder that you have to deal with their behaviour if it's continually distressing you. I could never date someone with BPD because my Mum had it. Being around people expressing similar behaviours to hers is very triggering for me. Put yourself first guys :)

If you notice, BPD people are incredibly self-absorbed. When he asked how her condition is most harmful, she spoke of how she harmed herself but nothing of the harm she may cause others. The thing is, this self-absorption is actually quite unpleasant for themselves as well as those around them. We are so very stuck in our own heads. We can become a slave to our emotions... Notice she said (I paraphrase) "I know I'm behaving in an extreme/unacceptable way but im just doing whatever I have to do to feel better." Ironically, those behaviors that are seemingly instinctive attempts to stop the painful emotions often cause MORE if it in the long run for themselves on TOP of the stress inflicted on those around them . I truly don't have the answer, and I don't believe I know what's best for everyone. However, I feel like I need to share that in my case, learning to put other people first sometimes. NOT to my own detriment, of course... But lts like this: if I understand that I am behaving irrationally, and that my emotions and coping behaviors are not only unhelpful to myself and others but even HARMFUL ... That's become a trigger to remind me to open the door to the cell of my own brain and focus on someone else for a moment. What can I do to eleviate the stress in someone else? Is there something I can do to make someone else smile while not expecting anything in return? Very often, the sense of joy I get from that, and the relief from being stuck in my ownn mental anguish, IS the return. An example: calling a family member, asking how they're doing and really truly LISTENING. might not sound like much... But my god , it can really HELP!

Yea, I do think people with BPD are the opposite of psychopaths, in that pyschopaths/sociopaths feel muted emotion and care less than normal about their relationships, while people with BPD feel super-intense emotion especially about their relationships. Psychopaths/sociopaths manipulate in a cold, calculated way to gain something concrete like status, power, money, etc, whereas if people with BPD manipulate it comes from a place of emotional overwhelm, desperation to avoid abandonment, and having been consistently shown at a young age that acting out was the only way to get their needs met.

I notice often that people with BPD try to soften their own accountability for their actions, basically because "they can't help it". I see a lot of those signs with this woman, when she tries to say that the out of control behavior does not make people with BPD abusive or manipulative. At one point she tries to suggest that it's not intentional...but at the same time she admits that when feeling abandonment, they will do *literally anything they can think of* to stop that from happening. The hurt and the common self-hatred that BPD results in may go part of the way to explaining why this mindset is common in the disorder. I don't think that it's simply an issue of not wanting to be accountable, in every case at least. But what it is, is an example of one of the defining features of BPD: Emotional dysregulation. That is probably the number one barrier to people with BPD receiving effective treatment. That it becomes very difficult for them to self-examine appropriately, because they (1) have spent so much time hating themselves that any self-examination triggers that further, (2) because they feel it is impossible for them to be any other way, that when the BPD wants to take over it will, and it's "not really them", and (3) they feel that their behavior should be accepted as it is, and understood in the context they would like it to be, because of point #2. It's extremely problematic though, because INTENTION is not what determines abuse and manipulation. Especially when the pattern occurs repeatedly. On top of that, intention does not exist in a vaccum. If you intended something during an episode and regret it later, that doesn't mean you didn't intend it in the first place. Having a disorder does not give you a pass on behaving in an abusive way, it merely helps to describe the mental state that led you to a behavior. If someone is angry and they physically assault someone, the anger isn't to blame for the assault. The person is. And truly addressing disorders like this REQUIRES that you are willing to be accountable for your own actions, not excusing it away because you're unstable.

I honestly think relying on our emotions as truth can be a bit deceiving. They aren’t always accurate or rational. Be surprised at how, even the slightest shift in thought, can impact our emotions. Sometimes we can’t help how we feel, but SOMETIME we can! We should ALWAYS try to help ourselves though. Self awareness is key. One little positive thought can be enough to change the course of our emotions. The more you flex that muscle, the easier it gets! The mind has the power to choose happiness! Getting ourselves to choose it is the hard part.

Tell her she's beautiful and try to help her because she needs guidance and real love that can help her realize people do have mental issues and that somebody's out there for her that will give her happiness and joy in her life this can be a excellent start to making her feeling much love

Hannah, Your honesty and openness has helped my so much to understand BPD. When I see you and hear you, you are brave beautiful soul. Thank you for the good you’ve done by sharing this interview. When you read and hear a critical description of BPD, it does not communicate the human factor. You are a breath of fresh air to me. Chris, thanks for this work you do.

Please understand that I have Compassion for people going through illnesses as I struggle greatly with High level anxiety. I praise this woman for owning her condition as I know it's difficult for people with BPD to do. I do need to say however, that this interview is only showing one side of BPD. The other side is people dealing with the aftermath of a relationship with someone with BPD where there are children involved. I found this hard to watch as it brought up so much for me. It made the condition look rosier than reality for me and the person interviewed seem to justify and not fully own their actions. High functioning BPD has a tendency to present what they are saying as right. What I felt in the relationship was amazement to see that they manage to control their behaviour in public, at work or if there's something the want but behind closed doors was a different story and no one from your community would believe you when you disclosed this side of your family life not even their friends but the neighbours knew as they heard it all and were my only support when taking it to court to get some access to my son . I'm sorry to all out there who find my comments harsh but when you have a 6yo daughter that came into this relationship who was heavily abused and a son to this person who still lives with her and is struggling greatly with her behaviour, I feel our experiences need to be also heard. It's been 8.5 years since separation from this person and I am still heavily traumatised and find very little help for me in the community. This is also true for the father of her daughter who was previously in a relationship with her. Tom Field

As a mental health professional, and someone who's best friend has come out of a relationship with a person diagnosed with EUPD, I can relate to the experiences you describe. One of the biggest hurdles to overcome as a health professional (in my oppinion) working with this group of people, is the stigma surounding it, which causes a great deal of problems. These problems include a lack of adequate therapy, patients avoiding to seek out available resourses and a general lack of understanding of the diagnoses (from the general public, the patients and the people surrounding them). These problems cause unnecessary harm (it increases the harm that we both feel often comes from the dissorder) If the intention of this video is to put forth a perspective of a person struggling with EUPD, I feel that is does so in a respectfull manner that might serve to reduce stigma, and hence work towards reducing these problems, and therefore harm. On the other hand, if this videos intention is to portray a complete picture of the disorder, I feel that it should be much longer, and contain a huge amount of information. As I interpret the channels intention, my best guess is that reducing stigma is probably more in line with the intentions of the channel. I hope that people watching this video look at other resourses as well, as I share your sentiment that many problems surounding this diagnosis is not adresses in the video. For me in my profession, this consise and clear portrayal from a patients perspective is very valuable, as no person I have worked with have explained their struggles anywhere near this well.

Hi Tom, I just read your comment, I an so very sorry to hear the situation you and your family were and still are in.. I totally understand you feeling the need to comment, share your story, and what damage bpd can do. Both sides are just. I do believe in the good intentions of the young lady in the video providing insight, simply into what it is like to experience having BPD. I believe I can understand your situation because I have experienced similar thing. After my parents split up there started a messy divorce, I lived at home alone with my mother for 5 years. Also after moving out her behaviour continued to be very, very difficult to this day, and has gotten somewhat better over time because of me setting boundaries. It still is very frustrating, never easy. I have been struggling for many years with mental health. Also BPD (due to many events, not only my mother) So I also got it, and it gets destructive in love relationships. It is very sad, because the more I learn about my own mental health issues due to my upbringing, the more I learn about her. She has so little trust in others, there is huge self loathing, shame and pain, and loneliness. This makes it so tragic; because BPD seeks the warmth and nourishment of relationships with others, but due to the enormous fear and unsafety they feel they will push anyone away who comes close. Fear to show their vulnerable selves, they have been traumatised at an early stage, and like the girl in the video pointed out: they will try to prevent it from happening at any cost. (Unfortunately). Therapy is so very important, especially Mentalisation Based Therapy. I have made many steps toward healing, but she won't. And neither might your ex partner... I advise you to seek a health professional (a proper one), to guide you in how to deal with her, as well as your son and daughter. Dealing with our pain is crucial, for it will find a thousand ways to numb it and suck the good out of life. Guide your children by example, show them affection, tell them you love them, and trust in the power they have in their souls. Wishing you the best, you sound like a lovely dad, commenting here. Take care! ⚘🍀🐕

Oh yes. I grew up with a mother with undiagnosed BPD. I could not emotionally completely detach from her until I was over 30. If she had not been my mother I would have been long gone. 2 out of 3 siblings were still around when she passed. It was an emotionally distanced duty that kept us around. Being close to a person with this behavior is damaging no matter if it is intentional or not. She was a great grandmother to my kids but I could see her personality start to shine thru as they grew older and with any tendency to treat them like she did with others I immediately stepped in. That was only 2-3 times but it would have been more in the future had she still been around. I think Hannah still needs to realize that although the intent is important, the lack of bad intentions does not change the fact that is hurtful and damaging to the receiver. She is on a good path and will maybe understand it in the future.

I understand. I have bpd and children, I'm with their father. Until I realize I had bpd it was a complete mess. If you have bpd and are not self aware it's massively different. The turrning point is understanding yourself, accepting it and learning the skills to manage and change your behaviour. Taking ownership and responsibility but also having a support system with people who understand, support but don't enable them. It's such a complex balance to find.

this video deeply resonated with me. when she said ‘when I love, I love hard’. I have ‘Love Hard’ tattooed on my fingers for that exact reason, as someone with BPD i think we are the most deeply loving people, and sometimes extremely misunderstood. Appreciate this alot !

I would rather not love as well. It’s hard enough to love yourself when you have BPD, and sometimes not opening yourself up to hurt is safer. It’s not the most adaptive, but it’s protective.

BPD. It's hateful and the part about physicians has been my experience too. BPD has it's facets. I haven't had a relationship in over twenty years because with my BPD there will be...consequences. It's important to know one's limitations.

I was diagnosed with borderline personality after I provided fellow patients at the hospital with amphetamine. After that, I was homeless for one year. Now I am struggling with addiction, attended my second NA meeting today. I am taking my mental health seriously, seeing a therapist. I hope I don't hurt or endanger anyone anymore, if only for my own conscience.

I have BPD and PTSD. The emotions are all consuming and intense. They are ten times more intense than what a normal person feels. But they are real to us and they are warranted or not is irrelevant. We still feel it. It's absolutely a roller coaster

As someone living with BPD, this interview meant so incredibly much to me. I have never heard anyone so eloquently express how it feels on a daily basis to live with this disorder. It is comforting to know I am not alone and that other people are experiencing similar struggles. Keep it going, Hannah! You are loved!! ❤️

Validation is such a powerful thing she touched on. I've thought more and more about whether or not I'm borderline in the last year or so. My life has really spiraled out of control in a lot of ways and I think if I knew this was a thing sooner I could have coped better. I cannot stress enough how important validation of feelings/emotions is when you're in a depressed state or an angry state.

Doctors should stop labeling so many people with BPD. I got the label once too (25 years ago) and I'm a completely different person now, I don't have any of the characteristics anymore. Anybody can be helped and nothing is incurable. Labeling people doesn't help, it just gives them something to hide in and use as an excuse. Every person on this planet feels the anxiety and pain whenever someone we love leaves us. You have to talk to people about it, let the emotions out. BPD is definitely not something you have to live with your entire life.

I have Asperger's and I can resonate with wanting someone to just reach out with a helping hand and not knowing what will trigger sensory issues that day and having a meltdown and acting out because you cannot process an emotion or some disruption to your routine. Like I don't want to behave the way I do but the emotional experience can be uncomfortable and the sensory issues are painful

You have a radiant smile and your eyes are incredibly expressive… I’m sitting here and it sounds like my daughter in almost everything you say, have done and how you view things. There is a great deal of pain atm, but I am so grateful that you sat down with Chris and shared yourself for the benefit of others. Know you are loved! I wish I could give you a father’s hug to reassure you that you are worth it.
