Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a mental condition marked by a pattern of ongoing instability in moods, behavior, self-image, and functioning. For many, labeling someone with BPD can make them feel like their world is crashing down around them. You mostly hear about the negative aspects of borderline personality disorder, but what about the positives? In this video, we will be addressing the positive traits of people with borderline personality disorder to reduce the stigma around it and help those who are diagnosed with BPD find relief in their diagnosis because it can make them feel more understood.
To raise awareness about BPD, we also made a video on the things you should know about people with borderline personality disorder (BPD): • 9 Things About Borderl...
If you want to learn more about BPD, check out this video: • Borderline Personality...
Disclaimer: This video is for informative purposes only. It is not intended to diagnose or treat any condition. Please reach out to a qualified healthcare provider or mental health professional if you are struggling. This video is not meant to romanticize or glamorize BPD in any way. It's just to point out that there are positives along with the challenges that come with having BPD.

Same, I’m in the process of getting formally diagnosed but my specialist said that she’s leaning into the fact that I do have this condition. The hyper-empathy and loyalty here is super real, because I always strive to see the best in people regardless of their rocky past, however, I’m working on seeing myself in the same way.

As someone with BPD I got to admit that I've never recognized these things as something "special" - I thought everyone is able to be as empathetic, good at managing other peoples crisis and having a bigger amount of resilience. It's beautiful to see someone talk about these things as "positive traits" for something that's negatively covered. Thank you for this video ❤️

I love how this video talks about how getting a BPD diagnosis can be a huge relief and sort of a blessing because it finally explains what the actual problem has been this whole time. That’s what it was like for me when I found out I had BPD, but most people only talk about the stigma of having the diagnosis and not wanting to be labeled.

I always knew that something about me was really off, and it wasn't just because I had ADHD. When my BPD was at its worst, I knew that I needed to do something ASAP because I needed to know what was wrong with me, so I decided to admit myself to the psych ward and when I finally got my diagnosis, everything clicked in my head. And what helped even more was that my best friend also had BPD, and I knew that he was a great person because he was so supportive of me before my diagnosis, so it made it much less scary for me. Getting the diagnosis explained SO much though and it was very relieving to know that there was a reason why I acted the way I did, and that I can completely heal from it eventually. It's been a really difficult 2 years since my hospital stay, but I've learned so much about myself and learn how to manage my symptoms more and more every single day. And now I can even see the positive traits in myself that were described in the video and it makes me feel good because I know I'll always be one of the best people anyone could meet and befriend because I care so deeply about people and do my best to always make them feel good about themselves and supported.

i was not so reliefed. it completly changed my life from being succesfull and having ''friends'' into a downwards spiral with negative feelings about my self. idk if we lack professional help in my country but most professional help and meds seemed to make me feel wurse. its only recent (15 years later) i start to realize where it came from and that i accept that its not my self i need to hate. infact i should love my self for surviving and still standing, this recent feeling of acceptance is only the start of me learning how to coop with this disorder. i try to do self reflection on every scenario that triggers me or can trigger me. and it seems to help me alot. this video is only a bit of light in the dark, i love the positive side of this video, but being unable to coop with BPD is most deffinatly not a blessing

Nothing wrong with been BPD, is part of our reuro diversity. We need to learn to navigate in our modern society. This video is amazing, we have a lot of positive trails, people learn to love you for what you’re. Everyone has baggage and we accept them. I try to be a better person every day but other must try too. I send you a lot of support and encourage. My only advice, say I’m sorry as soon as you realize you hurt someone with your mood swings. Sometimes we say things that we don’t mean it, and I can’t why I said it.

This is retarded. BPD doesn't result in increasing those traits. BPD changes emotional parameters... Yes. However, it is no "superpower". Safe drugs and mushrooms can give you those benefits with the crazed, evil disorder. Btw, did you know that borderlines and ENTP-narcissits started the wild fire in Hawaii? Most ENTP 'literally' secretly have narcissitic personality disorder! They micro-manage via subtly manipulating how other people view them.

I think she believed it wouldn't allow her to be successful. But a few weeks ago I realized some of the most creative, outgoing, and successful people in the creative world are nerodivergent. I hope those watching this with BPD realize how awesome and cool you really are!

Don't. BPD is no "superpower". Since when is a negative disability beneficial? That is twisted, borderline-esque logic right there! Especially since "evil for the sake of evil" is the innate modus operandi of BPD, and narcissits (defence against their extremely fragile, delusional, empty-ego)! Personality offsets the extent of the disorders, hence it manifests differently.

Good video, but some thoughts on a couple of points. Loyalty, especially when forged from bpd can be a double-edged sword. I love intensely, but it's also intertwined with idealization, which causes me to either pull away or lash out. People with bpd can love so much that it causes a great sense of grief, and it can quickly turn to anger and resentment when they don't get what they want from the people they love. I'm certainly not energetic. BPD causes me to have severe, treatment resistant depression, so I simply feel like a burden. I and many with the disorder can become emotionally burned out trying to solve other peoples' problems, thinking it will validate them in some way. I've grown more numb to the plight of others, due to feeling like my efforts weren't reciprocated and I've pulled away from people to shield me from further harm. I think all of the points are valid, but they come with caveats.

​@@keip4568 BPD has more mood swings than bipolar. Bipolar mood swings *at most* occur in the span of weeks. Borderline mood swings can occur within seconds. Borderline is also much more difficult to live with. I say live with, because unlike bipolar, medication doesn't help regulate BPD. You just have to learn to deal with it, and it's pointless trying to fight the mood swings. Note: I'm not saying that bipolar is, nor that any mental illness is easy to live with, just that medication doesn't really help with Borderline.

I’ve struggled with BPD since I can remember. It’s so difficult and I lose so many friendships and a lot of people I just tend to ignore and not reply for long because I’m too overwhelmed. I’ve never really had strong abandonment issues until I’ve been suddenly abandoned by my fp back in December because of being too much (oversharing even tho I was assured it was okay) and now I am terrified of any slight “maybe” “dunno” whenever I initiate a meeting with my fp. Ive really bad anxiety as my emotions are so strong any slight inconvenience to my plans sends me into a spiral of wanting to kms or crying, saying Ive nothing anymore, feeling like I’m under some rock and can’t get out. Ive no therapy as in my country the health care is so bad I’m still waiting. It’s really not easy and yet I still manage to come to work and manage to do a lot of things so I’m in a way kinda proud of myself. I just wish I had some proper help. I’m scared I’ll scare away yet another person I really feel for

You have to test people for their value because it takes a special someone to realise your true worth. If they haven't the intelligence to identify your true worth, they are not really complex enough to comprehend how special you are. I am sorry that you have no therapy though. That is so messed up. I mean.. who do you turn to for support? This world needs to recognise that you are isolated and that we all need connection to other people with similar values.

YES! I have quiet bpd, and I'm like if a therapy dog was a person. also, I'm a digital illustrator, and I swear any illustrations I put my ENTIRE mood swing into turn out as some of my best. I have a couple pieces from over a 2 years ago, and I've improved SO much since then, but I made them when I was feeling either my worst or most manic, and still consider them to be some of my best. They're proudly displayed near the top of my portfolio! A lot of neurodivergent people around me wish they could be neurotypical, and trust me I understand, and I am quite honestly in a PRIVILEGED enough position that my BPD and ADHD haven't been much worse for me, but I'm not sure I would have it any other way. When it's bad it's awful, but on the other end, I feel like I'm able to experience deeper connection to people than neurotypicals neurologically can, and when things are going good, and my coping strategies are working, it can be a beautiful thing.

That is SO true. I was baffled when I discovered other people didn't feel so strongly about their friends and relationships in general. I discovered I am more sensitive to light than (apparently) most. And a little to sound as well. I don't feel the need to label myself anything but hypersensitive at this point. Because I feel like if someone close to me had taken the time to help me with these strong emotions and sensations.. And through other traumatic events.. This disorder wouldn't have happened. I think deep down we are all like the video describes. And then the way the world has dealt with our intensity, and vice versa, is what made us sick. We have such incredible minds, open, creative, feeling..

@@guesswho5790 prefacing this by saying: hoo boy this turned into the most bpdhd rant of all time about the nature of the human condition, i wouldn't blame you if you don't want to read through it. I almost erased it and started over but eh, what the hell. original comment: mhm! for example, adhd was likely a desirable trait in humans before we became settlers. hypersensitivity also doubles as high sensory perception, people with adhd tend to intuitively catch on to skills that require working with one's hands, intuition, and senses such as tool crafting, foraging, and hunting. I believe bpd symptoms could potentially be much the same, and the negative ones are a product of the way we live now. black and white thinking could lead to a strong sense of solidarity within the group that they are part of, while being less hesitant to act on perceived outside threat. I think the issue is that we live in a very disconnected society. that applies to interpersonal connections, as well as the existance of smaller, more closely knit groups having some benefits we've given up for the sake of modernization. the biggest i can think of is allowing people to work in ways they're actually good at, rather than forcing every lower class worker's nose into the same, or very similar grindstone unless they're fortunate enough to be able to make it through self employment. I'm by no means a primitivist, i think the ways humans have advanced are absolutely incredible, though I do have to think that honestly MUCH of psychiatry is a result of neurodivergence that was once accepted with compassion, largely regardless of if it gave specialized abilities or was disabling, now being indicative of a defective drone. As someone who is also transgender, I choose to believe in the relative compassion of all working class people, even those who want me dead. of course, if someone is a physical threat to my safety because i dared to exist in public they are still scum, but I'm not sure I can blame them entirely either. it's the fault of the ruling class who have a vested financial interest in cultivating an oppressed class through directly producing ableist, racist, xenophobic, sexist, homophobic, and transphobic propaganda. we live in a global economy built on war and cheap thrills for those of us just trying to get by, of course we're all mentally ill. both those who are fighting for acceptance and those who are fighting for some perverted concept of tradition they've been brainwashed into have a lot of the same problems. we all divide ourselves and others into smaller demographics until we don't have enough people fighting with us to do anything meaningful. to do anything productive we have to band together in our humanity, shed these preconceived bigotries, forgive those who have taken those steps to educate themselves and change for the better, and stand together as people who refuse to be divided and made to fight against each other any longer. but that feels so insurmountable. i think in that hopelessness, it's really important for people to create, unapologetically, with no expectation to be compensated. I'm too scared right now, but I think street art is one of the most amazing forms of art in the world. the idea that it cost someone their material safety to put there, in the hopes that someone or anyone would be moved by it, knowing they would never even know that person's name

Something I found fascinating while looking through the comments, the emotional empathy in the comments on this video seem significantly higher than normal. I personally favor (as in personality is skewed towards) cognitive empathy, so many of these comments are in some way surprising to me. I'm not sure if you've covered the topic before, but I'd love to see a psych to go video on major differences between the different forms of empathy, including the newer suggestion of separating emotional empathy into multiple parts.

Oh my goodness, this video made me cry so much... I have BPD and other mental health conditions, the struggle is real... I'm grieving the loss of a friendship that chose to end it. Based on what I talked with my psychiatrist, I was highly concerned and to a paranoid point blaming myself for the end of the relationship. Also the wording used by this person leaves a lot in me, I acknowledged my mistakes, validated his emotions and wanted to have a talk to have some closure and be emotionally responsible for whatever I have done or didn't do. My friend chose to deny this option regardless if he wants to continue the relationship or not. I've been feeling so guilty about my conditions, specifically having borderline and being in a relapse of my MDD and developing social anxiety. Trusting myself on the fact that I was a good friend, if I am indeed or not, the immediate doubt about if the rest are telling me I'm a good person but is a lie? This video popped and helped me to reassure the things my friends and husband (my best friend) have been telling me, they are helping me to deal with this and I'm allowing myself to grieve this. Thank you for this video, I needed to remember a positive side of my brain.

Some friendships might not last for long. And even though it feels hard to let go of someone with whome you shared multiple good memories with is not an easy thing, sometimes it could be for the good of both you and him. And ofcourse when something like this happens, sometimes it feels like you did something wrong, its normal to have doubts. But eventually, after sometime you need to start accepting that the friendship is over. Slowly but surely, let go of it, since constantly overthinking about it will bring nothing but pain. And haveing these mental health condition is out of your control, you didnt chose to have them so try not to feel guilty about. Accept yourself the way you are. If these conditions interfere in your daily life, inquiring advices on how to manage them from a proffesional will be good for you. I hope your doing good now. Take your time, its ok, slowly let go of the frienship. Hope you have/had a great day

It might be hard to accept but they didnt see your worth and deliberately cutting ties with you suddenly like that....its better to not assosciate with someone like that. Not many people stick around to see your true great potential. The hurtful feeling of loss might not permanantly leave you but with practice and motivation it will hurt a lot less and after some more time what happened will just be one bad memory. Seeing how geniunly you cared about the friendship its clear it isnt your fault. Some friendships even the strongest can suddenly end, with or without a reason as to why. Ofcourse lettng someone you were that close with isnt easy but its not impossible. I am glad you yourself is determined to let go, it takes a lot of effort to attempt. Whenever your reminded of the friendship don't think a lot about it, just smile and relish the good memories you had with them and be happy while you had the friendship you cherished each and every moment. I wish you well in your journey to letting go.

@@babybear3430 thank you for your kind words and care. Yeap, is gonna take a while to digest 9 years of friendship. I keep the door open for him in case we see each other again, in a future moment, and just say hi. I cherish a lot of things from that friendship and for him as the brother from another mother that he was. I know that therapy will help me to cope with this in a healthier way, since the primal intense fear of abandonment is t inforced with it very loss you can experience. I have some PTSD from deaths that happened since I was 13, and each one has a component of trauma to add on. Us with BPD experience already a hard time with understanding our social and inner identity, things are perceived in a distorted way. When you experience a loss, it shakes that notion of identity, because you try to understand your part in this situation. Instead of hopelessly waiting for validation from this person about the type of friend I was, I need to find that validation within myself. I'm willing to take this pqin away from me. At least to lose the guilt qnd shame, because what you're telling me is right, some people just don't have the same level of commitment or they just grow apart. Instead of noticing this and try to nourish the relationship, they let it starve and just one person cannot provide enough for that relationship to survive. Thanks again for your consoling words. I wish you the best ❤️

I am so happy to see this! When I was diagnosed I got supper happy, "I literally have a manual with instructions online and medicines to help me! I can work now!" But then all I saw online was a list of all the worse of me, the things I had years of work, by miself, to hide. It was not easy. Also, we see lots of videos were people sheer their terrible experiences with bpd and how people with bpd are terrible, how is hard to date them, and even professionals saying those stuff! Suddenly I felt like a monster, so many people hate who has bpd! We are "manipulators, possessive, crazy, selfish..." This are de dark side that I always run away... And that was all that people could see as soon as I share my "condition". I had to tell my boyfriend in the beginning, I tell people because I need the to understand when my mood change to the oposit suddenly... People get confuse so I try to explain. Then they look online. Then they see only the worse. This video makes me really happy, it shows the part that I like and love, the part that makes me happy of being who I am. It is hard to deal with the bad days and all the "craziness" thoughts, that, even if you know that are crazy you believe on it. But with the treatment... I really love the person I am and without bpd I would not be me. I love my empathy, my creativity, how I can fully embrace and make people that I love feel understood and valid. Thank you to reminde us of that. Thank you to share one content to help see more than the bad... Cause, for real, the love that I have for "my art" (writing), Is the best thing. I love my intensity, I love how I can use it to explain and give more sides to my characters... If you have bpd... I think you are kind of lucky. If you take your treatment serious (no energetic and no alcohol are really important folks, sorry but is true) you really start to love yourself. And appreciate you more. I always knew my life was hard... But now I feel so proud to myself for being able to endure to 27y with no help! And with the anxiety medicines... If my young me could know how "normal" thinking can be... Well... The time by myself made me really appreciate the treatment and love miself and trust the love of people around me. I really hate when I see people with bpd that don't value the treatment and don't put effort on that. Or that know that there is a treatment, and choose not to persue it. I know that is hard to start, to move, to take action... But now that I know the "sun", I really hate to see people in the dark. Go get treatment my loves! For real... Life will always be hard... But with more stable emotions everything is better. Even the bad days. Is all easier.

@@christinewilcox6857 well, each bpd person have particularity. In my case I use a medicine to stabilize my humor and a anti-anxiety medicine. But only medicine is not enough, Is also good lots of self care, online study and look for videos that help to deal with emotions. I use internet a lot to help me, I write my feelings with details until I get tired and realize that... I don't care, Is so silly to spend so much on that! A jornal help me a lot. Each person find their way... but you have to look and try to improve. Medicines and therapy are great, I truly don't think I could live without my medicines. I always take them with care, and if I use anything that interact with them (energetics, alcohol...) I see the difference. Eat well, sleep well, take your medicine and accept yourself. Be your own best friend, encourage you, also remind yourself that you don't need to be more than you are, that you are doing your best and respecting your limits. That each mistake is a learning chance and that people are able to forget and forgive. And, if they are not, why do you need them in your life? Life naturally filtrate who stays... work hard on being your self support, and surround yourself of people who can appreciate you... but remember that you have to do the same for them. Internet have all kinds of asmr and raike videos that calm me a lot... And I think that is it for me. Just... I don't do therapy. I would like to, I would like to improve... but I didn't find someone that I like... this is terrible to say, I know, but therapy helped me a lot in the beginning. Oh! Also, find what is really bringing you your intense feelings! Understand yourself is REALLY important, for you and for others. Even with the medicines, once my father moved a plant from the kitchen window to the window by my bed. He said that I was not watering on the window but by my bed I would do that. I snapped and get irrationally angry at him that day (I usually hate when people move my stuff aroud and my dad does not live with me, but even though was too much anger), then I had time by myself and realized... I was not angry because he move my plant! I was angry because I live in the house that my grandmother used to live when she was alive.... and that was the place where she put this specific plant: by the window kitchen. As soon my grandma died the house change a lot, they exchange the mobile, etc... her room was not there anymore, her sofa, her... but there was where she put that kind of plant, and was a plant I use to buy for her. Being able to understand I felt lass crazy and unfair, I was also able to explain my reaction to my father and he even thanked me. My grandma was his beloved mother. Now that plant is always by the window, and even if she is dry, she will always stay there... and when I look at her I realize how this is important to me... and feel that my grandma is still around. That plant give me a sense of normality. And I don't feel embarrassed by my reaction anymore. How we feel, how we react... there is always a reason, and we need to get over the embarrassment and think about the feeling, understand it. Sometimes you realize is something selfish and silly... but the reason is always easier to deal than a "irrational" feeling or reaction. This for me is really important. Love yourself is not about have a great self-esteem, Is about support. Is about be patient with yourself, understand yourself, forgive yourself... be to yourself the same that you would be for the person you love the most. This kind of care will make you love yourself. And will make you love others more... also, will make you protect yourself from people that is no worthy, the same way you protect a friend

As someone with BPD, thank you so much for making this video. I’ve never seen or heard anyone talk about the positives of having borderline, so this is so refreshing and can help educate so many people, as they probably have only heard the negative side of the disorder. As hard as it is to navigate life with the struggles we have to deal with as people with BPD, at least in my personal experience, the positives like being overly empathetic and knowing how to help others in times of need make it a little more bearable. All of these strengths that come with it have become the things I love most about myself and what makes me proud to be me. To anyone who thinks they may have BPD or have been recently diagnosed, you are not alone and you are not what society thinks you are just because you have a mental health disorder. There are going to be things in life that neurodivergent people may not have to deal with, but because you may have to, it will only make you stronger. You will be okay. ❤️❤️❤️

As a 60 year old BPD I can assure you that ''acceptance'' is important but not how people think. I learned to accept my behaviour and take 100% responsibility for what I create in my life, that acceptance lowers the bubbling up of desire to self abuse for not being good enough for this absurd world we are in. Eckhart Tolle and Alan Watts make me accept myself even more.

Thank you for this video. BPD can be difficult to handle for anyone close to the person, and especially as the person themselves. It never helps when many healthcare professionals themselves have such a skewed view of BPD, making it intimidating to get help when you need it sometimes, or even admitting that you are diagnosed with the disorder. We need more videos like these to educate the general population. DBT saved my life, unfortunately I had to go to the other side of the country to get the therapy. Many people haven’t gotten the same opportunity as I have and thus there is a lot of untreated BPDers out there. Untreated, this was unmanageable for me, and I know I made life hard for those around me, even though it was never intentional. If you have been diagnosed with BPD I would highly recommend Dialectical Behavioural Therapy. If it is not offered in your area, advocate for it.

I've had BPD since my mid teens. Early on,I was barely functional and crippled by it. Now, in my mid 30s, I'm far less intense. The secret is to find something that matters to you to distract yourself with. For me that was going back to college and determining to learn a new language from a culture I love to the point of fluency (and over time, I was even able to combine the two passions!). I still have symptoms including ones that seriously negatively impact me, but finding something to do with my time and energy other than spiral or over focus on others made an 80% improvement in my condition. It's the Buddhist concept of monkey mind - there's a monkey living in a cage in your head and if you don't keep it busy, it'll start throwing excrement around and destroying everything.

I think these pertain more to personality traits (not in the typological sense as that's cognition) as opposed to being inherent in a diagnosis of someone with BPD. As a mental health professional with a lot of experience, like any person - these are not just applicable to people with BPD, I've observed the absence and proliferation of such in the both affected and unaffected population. It's also worth baring in mind that as a cluster B personality disorder for those who also are on the anti social spectrum, there can be a lack of affective empathy however, this is a generalisation as I know many people with BPD who are very empathetic; my point being it is contingent upon comorbid diagnosis to a degree as most people with BPD suffer from at least one comorbid psychiatric condition, individual cognition and personality traits that BPD does not encompass (the term PD is often misleading as it inevokes the notion that the entirety of someone's personality is defunct when this is not the case). Kudos to you however for positing a positive slant on a diagnosis that is heavily stigmatised.

had to add, the best people for jobs like doctors, and surgeons because of the "lack of empathy" and the drive to do the best job and not get emotional, (and other jobs that are necessary for society) and there is A LOT of the population with this diagnosis in the society that no one will suspect they have it- especially because of the high-status jobs and logic and i think self-control more than most regular people because of the self-aware, statistic everyone knows someone who has it. the stigma is only because the diagnosis is in the public eyes connected with those who commit crimes (those who also suffer from trauma and bad childhood) so it's known to the media. and most of the diagnoses are for people that search for help for depression and found out they have an anti-personal disorder. if i will be sick and needed a doctor to save my life i would absolutely trust more of a doctor with this diagnosis. (i have bpd, its not a biased opinion, just something I'm interested in and done my research, it's very unfair to watch) so agree 100% ! sorry for the misspells, I'm not an american.

@@RaptureDragon1 Its morso that our empathy works differently. Some sociopaths do care about a select few people like family, friends, pets, maybe even groups of people like the homeless while also being able to treat everyone else like chess pieces without remorse. Even those we actually care about, I could move on quickly if they died. I have softer spots for people who have autism and are HSP, in a way where I should coach them on how to survive in this cutthroat world, doesn't mean I wont try to con them out of 10 dollars though.

When we talk about the negatives, I'm always all in, when we swap to the positives, I try to find reasons to back out and use my undiagnosed part as a shield keeping the love out. It's hard for the world to feel like it's crashing down and to not feel like I'm broken or damaged or flawed. I'm working on it though. Good video, thanks for helping me see I can squeeze some good out of it

Thank you SO much for this!! I've just realized I've had bpd my whole life, and it's been misdiagnosed as other things. However, I've always known something was wrong, and spent years using certain coping tools to help deal with symptoms, and also have made significant progress over the past 10 yrs regarding mood regulation, and other symptoms. Lately, I've been intensely searching for awareness on my blind spots, and whoa, now realize I've got significant signs of bpd, especially thinking back to teenage years. However at this point in my life, I don't have as much negative experience with symptoms and was confused. How can I have CLEAR bpd traits, but not be currently, and consistently manifesting them in daily life. So it's like I've been working backwards, to find out I'm bpd. I try to focus on the good, and your list here is more indicative of my current main modus operandi...almost like I've squashed the negatives of bpd, and amplified the fun, and more productive traits. I've not gotten rid of the negative traits, just squashed them to the point where now I can effectively manage them in more productive ways. This video REALLY helped cut through the confusion. ❤💃🏼🥂🎉
