This talk is amazing. I live with my husband who has traits of BPD and my daughter who is full blown BPD, and he is extremely reactive when she's exploding over some (as he calls it) small thing (but to her it's the world-- if you know these types of people you know what I"m talking about). So he loudly dismisses her feelings about a missing ponytail holder while she's screaming she can't leave the house without it. omg dude. I try to be the calm in the storm.

Was the talk basically over? It abruptly cut off at the end and I wasn't sure if that was intentional. Really appreciated this conversation/found it very helpful, though. Thank you for this resource!

I think that borderline results from abuse as a child so staying away from family who abused them is best

Factors which may play a role in the development of Borderline Personality Disorder are various. It is difficult (almost impossible) to pinpoint cause and effect. Abuse as a child, for some people, may have played a role, but for many who are diagnosed with BPD, it is NOT necessarily the case. Many other factors may have played a role, such as a vulnerability (in terms of biology), invalidation (which could have been done inadvertently with no intention to harm), or even difficult experiences in school such as bullying, etc... It is complex.

You can only hope to escape a borderline. They will never get better and blame you for everything.

I'm sorry if that has been your experience. We can be a tricky bunch of people. This talk gives a really good explanation of why we behave in some of the ways we do. Please don't make sweeping statements like this though. It isn't helpful and isn't true of all of us. We are a wide ranging group of people with different levels of understanding and acceptance.

It is very treatable, but they have to get help to change.
