I just recently got diagnosed and it’s been hard. It definitely takes a large weight off of my shoulders but without a strong support system it’s difficult to deal with. Thanks for this informational video, hope to see some more on this topic.
I’m 100% positive I’m Borderline. The doctor wouldn’t give me the diagnosis because I wasn’t acting a certain way in his office. I was so angry I have been a psychiatric nurse for 14 years so I know what borderline is. I really need the diagnosis so I can get the therapy to help me. Borderline disorder has ruined my life

I would be interested to see studies of the overlap between Borderline Personality Disorder diagnoses and reaction sensitivity in ADHD patients. In the ADHD field some treat reaction sensitivity with Clonidine or Guanfacine, looking for self reported life changing results within weeks, and some psychiatrists that treat BPD patients also have had success with these drugs. The physiological mechanisms for reaction sensitivity in both ADHD patients and BPD patients seem to be similar. This would seem to imply a neurological/physiological component that perhaps is significant and should be a focus of treatment, in addition to the skill building therapy. If you’ve seen a BPD episode, you know that the person’s physiological stress response (going between fight and flight until they dissociate) to the stimuli or perceived stimuli often overrides their ability to reason or really apply coping skills; there seem to be medications that can help diminish the physiological reaction to give the person the chance to access their coping skills.
My grandma and mom had it. Me and my five siblings were put up for adoption at different homes and we all developed it... Three of us head trauma. Two were raised really well. Its genetic
Brilliant video Doctor, Am suffer from BPD but I don't care very much about abandons and my emphaty is switched off to some people and I think because is cluster b I have some aspd traits,very hard to get a proper diagnos because of that, you provide so rich info Doctor Cheers .
I don’t agree with what he said about the self harm aspect, Because I have had lots of borderline patients and they did self harm for attention. I never saw any of them self harm as a punishment
Self harm is not just about cutting your skin, I never do that. I was diagnosed with it and the kind of self harm is when I remember situations that make me mad at myself and I always end up hitting my hand into the nearest wall or solid thing, digging my nails into my skin. None of it leaves any kind of marks but it’s what happens to me when my brain reminds me of situations that leave me ashamed of myselfZ
I just read that Dr. Landow passed away back in 2022. May he rest in peace
How sad. He was a very smart man. RIP 😢

I do it for both reasons
'These people' is a very dehumanising phrase.
Not really he’s just referring to a group of people I don’t think he meant in a derogatory way but I could see how it might seem that way
“These people” is putting it mildly
midcentury american you’d rather them be more dehumanised?
