Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most misunderstood mental health conditions, clouded by stigma and misinformation. In this episode, we take a compassionate, research-based look at what BPD really is, where it comes from, and how people living with it can find healing and stability. From exploring the biological underpinnings and role of trauma, to the impact on relationships and the remarkable effectiveness of treatments like DBT and SCM, we look at both the challenges and hope.

We’ll explore:

•        What BPD feels like and the key symptoms
•        The biosocial model: how biology and the environment intertwine
•        The impact BPD has on relationships and attachment
•        Stigma, myths, and gendered assumptions around diagnosis
•        Why loneliness is high, and support is essential
•        How DBT and Structured Clinical Management help people adapt
•        The encouraging truth about recovery and long-term prognosis

If you’ve ever wanted to learn more about this misunderstood condition, this episode is for you.
