When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors. |

Some days ago I came across another article of her, aimed at partners of BPDs. It was beyond abusive. I cannot possibly comprehend how someone who claims she wants to help thinks that painting BPDs as blood sucking monsters could possibly inspire tolerance, understanding and a will to work on issues together. Sorry, rant over. |

wow I think this article is for "one professional to another." As a nurse, I frequently "vent" about patients to another nurses just as I'm sure therapists or pdocs "vent" about theirs. But this article definitely is not for or should be the BPD sufferer to read.
That's my scared to by the book "Stop Walking on Eggshells" for my parents because I feel like it will give them license to distance themselves from me.

Erm, am I the only one who despises BPD being put beside Narcissistic Personality Disorder all the time? I just don't understand it. I don't see how they're related other than being part of Cluster B and maybe the difficulty with interpersonal skills, which I'm sure is present in many other disorders. Can someone enlighten me as to why the two are always seemingly placed together?
I also really hate how she refers to use as "the Borderline" like we're some other species.

Lmats no you're not. I hate it because I'm not at all narcissistic and it would cause me a lot of pain if someone thought I was and I'd immediately want to do whatever I could to convince them otherwise.
I also don't like the way this person states categorically that all BPD'ers have abusive parents. My parents are amazing and were not the reason I developed BPD & I get very defensive of them if someone suggests otherwise.
