Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) – Counselling & Support
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a complex mental health condition that can affect the way people think, feel, and relate to others. Individuals living with BPD may experience intense emotions, difficulties with self-image, and challenges in managing relationships.
It is important to know that BPD is treatable. With the right support, many people learn to better manage symptoms, build resilience, and live meaningful lives.
Common Features of BPD
BPD can look different for each individual, but some common experiences include:
-
Intense and rapidly changing emotions
-
Fear of abandonment or rejection
-
Difficulties maintaining stable relationships
-
Impulsive behaviours (e.g., spending, risky activities)
-
A shifting or unclear sense of self
-
Feelings of emptiness or worthlessness
-
Self-harm behaviours or thoughts of suicide
These symptoms can feel overwhelming at times, but professional support can assist in developing skills to manage them more effectively.
When to Consider Professional Support
If difficulties associated with BPD are affecting daily life, relationships, or personal wellbeing, seeking support may be beneficial. Professional help can provide strategies to:
-
Better regulate strong emotions
-
Develop healthier relationships
-
Improve communication and coping skills
-
Build a stronger and more stable sense of identity
