Borderline Personality Disorder
I remember discussion about this in the past, but -- can anyone share
regarding homeopathic treatment of someone with this diagnosis? (In
this case I don't know if she has it as a formal diagnosis, but it seems
to be the situation.) Would you (anyone) consider it curable? And
anything else anyone can share about it, from the standpoint of
homeopathic treatment.
Thanks!

What is personality disorder a euphorism for?

A person who doesn't manage life and relationships well? I don't know...
Someone who's difficult to work with or relate to. Not an easy start for treatment purposes, is that your thought?

Re: Borderline Personality Disorder
It is just a label.....does not really mean anything...."borderline"....where do you put the border between "normal" and "pathology"? how is it expressed? what are the possible causes?
Come on, basic homeopathic case taking...

Re: Borderline Personality Disorder
If you find a person difficult to work with or relate to you are the wrong person to work with them IMHO. There has to be an empathy between practitioner and patient. I just listen to them and try to come up with the best remedy.

Re: Borderline Personality Disorder
What I have seen is a personality that is very rigid and cannot/will not accept being
wrong. The mental health field seems to agree the term is not very accurate but lacks any
other name for it. This is from the NIMH:
Most people who have BPD suffer from:
* Problems with regulating emotions and thoughts
* Impulsive and reckless behavior
* Unstable relationships with other people.
People with this disorder also have high rates of co-occurring disorders, such as depression, anxiety disorders, substance abuse, and eating disorders, along with self-harm, suicidal behaviors, and completed suicides.
What this tells me is that you need to be careful in dealing with these people as they can become out of control.
My daughter was dx this way by a social work friend of mine who spent a couple of hours with her. I can assure you
that my daughter can feel very out of control and will really go off in hysterical and rageful ways. You can see the instability
in her relationships as she goes from initial highs to deep lows when she meets new people. Her ragefulness has a violent
nature to it. But she hides it well in public applying intense control to herself and all around her. At her very adult age she
will still talk about how suicidal she was as a teenager. I think she has never gotten over this. So take this for what it is worth
but knowing how unstable a person can become with this psychological profile, caution is a good thing.

Re: Borderline Personality Disorder
I do not find anything from previous discussions in my own docs. If you do, I would love to have that.
From the point of view of psychotherapy it is not curable but manageable. Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT) is one of the primary modes of treatment. That method helps folks learn to cope with what feels like unmanageable emotions. One moment at a time. Dialectic means accepting contradictions. (Of course there is much more to it). For me a characteristic is an alternation between dependence on others alternating with rage when the other cannot meet the endless needs.
With homeopathy, I think there is a much better chance than “uncurable.” I should say that I have not had specific cases of this diagnosis. Instead, I have worked with folks who could definitely fall in that category.
Depending on how the person manifests their symptoms, you manage it just like you would any case: taking the individual expressions. Look into the possible causes. Look for the “delusion.”
BPD is usually one (of many) result of very chaotic upbringing and/or lack of stable parenting or support.

Re: Borderline Personality Disorder
I was only trying to answer your question.
I do not find her difficult to relate to, and don't know yet whether I would find her difficult to work with.
But because I'm told she has this diagnosis, and because of other factors, I am exploring.
