BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER DSM 5 | Feelings of Chronic Emptiness

BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER DSM 5 TR CRITERIA are specific but complex and confusing for most people. I'm often asked about symptoms like chronic feelings of emptiness, splitting, and mood swings all for a better understanding of WHAT BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER LOOKS LIKE. Other Symptoms like ABANDONMENT ISSUES IN RELATIONSHIPS, FEELINGS OF SUDDEN RAGE, VOLATILITY, IMPULSIVITY, LOW SELF-ESTEEM, ENGAGING IN RISKY BEHAVIORS, SELF-MUTILATION AND SUICIDAL BEHAVIOR are confusing and frightening. In this video, we will review how BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER is diagnosed (the criteria such as chronic emptiness and a pattern of unstable relationships outlined in the DSM V.) We will also discuss some of the ways family and friends can interact more effectively with a person diagnosed with Borderline and touch on some of the treatments for the disorder. A

Thank you for acknowledging that people with BPD don’t always have a history of physical abuse and that it could be due to emotional/psychological abuse and emotional neglect/invalidation early on in childhood. Is that idea widely accepted/seen as a fact among all psychologists? I only ever hear people refer to BPD as a result of severe physical neglect or abuse

Can someone have BPD without sudden rage? I'm never angry unless it's at myself internally. I was diagnosed with this. Every symptom listed I have EXCEPT rage and I don't have risky behavior. I've never done drugs, I don't drink, I don't even smoke. Unless you count impulsive sudden thoughts of suicide as a risky behavior. I've only actually tried once in 2013, went to the hospital mental health ward for two weeks. Diagnosed with chronic major depression, severe social anxiety disorder and panic attack disorder, ADHD, Schizotypal Personality Disorder, PTSD, BPD w/ (affective instability; crying a lot) hence hyper reactivity through anxiety, suicidal thoughts, paranoia ( paranoid thinking people are watching me, criticizing me) uncontrollable crying, or I can't cry at all. When I can't cry, that's when I feel really bad. My childhood was as perfect as they come, I'm close to my parents. I'm a hermit and have been all my life. I've been told I'm a major Empath. I never feel like I fit in ANYWHERE. Would CBT help me? Possibly any other kind of therapy help? What forte in your opinion should I look for in a psychiatrist?

Im 13 years old, For a couple years ive always had terrible mood swings and my parents would call me bipolar. Some times im sad for a whole day, then the next day im finally happy again then im sad again. I self harmed since i was 7 and done it since, when i met someone im really attached to that i cant leave, that i see as my whole world and my daily think about. When they dont give me attention i think that they think the opposite of me, but at the same time i think they still care about me. They are the only person i think about, which makes it very hard for my daily life id self harm maybe if i thought they were mad at me.
My emotions switch very fast for no reason, but when i was younger i was going through sa and i was always told to stop feeling what im feeling.

Hey I’m basically a kid and is it normal to be very annoyed about small things all the time? It’s been happening to me alot recently. I didn’t want to hurt people’s feelings, I really don’t want to. I do not want people to hate me. When I get very angry I sometimes bottle it up, but it turns into sadness and it backfires to me.. can I ask, is this a sign of puberty? Or is it because I’m being overdramatic or something else? I don’t really tell anybody about it because I know they will judge me, or probably think I’m faking all of it. So yeah I’m asking this question, am I okay?
