So I searched for BPD and borderline personality on here to see if anyone is discussing theory and treatment and I don’t see anything?

Anyway lately I’ve been thinking about how much I dislike Kernberg’s approach to treating BPD (TFP) and I’m very curious if anyone else feels this way?

The amount of rage I have for the increasingly depraved level of cruelty on display in the world is making it very hard to not lash out at people who are supporting + encouraging it.

I can regulate BPD anger pretty well by now but idk might be the time to let her fly a bit.

This is both sad and enraging. It’s as if the government is trying to harm society.
Last year, I was overjoyed to receive an NIH NRSA fellowship to study toddler brains and caregiving effects on memory at Columbia. Last night, my grant was terminated.

…..do people who use “skeet” not know what it means in a different context

I’m having a hard time figuring out my identity on here.

I feel like I have to choose between talking about what I love + know: BPD, C-PTSD, therapy, attachment

vs

My country being destroyed from within + how to fight + worrying about the mass suffering that’s coming

Start saying you were wrong and apologizing to children so casually they take it for granted. Yours, family, friends, kids in the community. If you have relationships with children you need to be apologizing when you’re wrong easily, loudly, and without prompting.

I really think the divide in society just comes down to high vs low empathy.

Elon musk could never in a million years be cool enough to play bass in a band but if he were in a band he'd definitely be a bass player that rushes

Trying to pry myself away from the other app so I can talk about BPD + complex trauma + attachment + research + experience w/ psychotherapy, etc…

But I can’t look away from fascists. I need to know what they’re thinking.

I really do think a lifetime of emotional intensity can be an asset at times.

Hellooo 🥰🥰🥰
Hello! 🎵 Hell-ooo! 🎶

So fascinated by this video shared with me by @bethanyhardy of her (then) three-month-old nephew.

Listen to how expertly our hero manages to mimic the tone and musicality of his father’s voice.
