Freedom of choice is POWERFUL. What we HAVE is what (on some level) we WANT~ even when it spawns unhappiness or discontent. We don't fall into failure, any more than we fall into success. There are a series of choices we make along the way that produce either condition, whether they are self-
Thank you Shari. Another wonderful article on BPD with a quality arrow masterfully crafted and dead centered on the bullseye.
I appreciate your contributions to this subject matter of the exhilarating and perplexing Cluster B $hit $how Circus; it has been an excruciatingly painful experience. Committed, focused, and disciplined in healing and rebuilding from such exposure.
You're welcome, dear Edwin... and THANK YOU for your affirming comments! Today I found out a former male BPD client has tried to cheat me out of moneys owed for services generously rendered. I can submit proof the charges are not fraudulent (I'd cut off my arm before taking advantage of anyone), but it's disturbing how little character or integrity Borderlines have. Ah well, just another day in Paradise.
I liked this essay and learned more about BPD I really knew very little about the condition. Some questions popped in to my head that maybe you could find time to address in an upcoming essay if you get a chance and think appropriate.
Does BPD come and go for some individuals? For example, the symptoms seem prevalent for young adults but maybe wear off as they mature?
Can BPD symptoms come and go based on the situation? For example, John Doe exhibits BPD on financial decisions but is mature and pragmatic in his marriage?
Learning new stuff is ALWAYS good! (Most people are still clueless about this disorder, so you're not alone.)
BPD symptoms and traits don't come and go's not like a head cold. It At times, especially when a relationship is deepening or getting closer, much more acting-out behavior enters the picture (picking fights, distancing, shutting down emotionally, etc.).
Borderlines do NOT get better or mellower with passing years. In fact BPD traits may become exacerbated or shift and play out differently than when younger, but unhealed core trauma issues become more pronounced as one gets older, if not treated within a unique and unconventional healing modality (psychotherapy never works). In short, Borderlines tend to rot as they age, rather than ripen. :~)
I'll be publishing my Male Borderline book next year. In the meantime, you can get a liberal education about Borderlines from this article: https://sharischreiber.com/the-borderline-personality-client/ OR, ya can pay a one-time fee of only $9.99 for a lifetime BPD Survivor Membership, and read over 20 articles on this topic, which will give you the inside track on Borderline Personality Disordered individuals (sign-up is easy from each BPD article, if you're interested).

How we do ANYTHING is how we do EVERYTHING. This goes for Borderlines, as well.
