"Do you know that the World Health Organization is adding complex ptsd to the ICD-11 and are functionally removing BPD. Release date May 2019 and in effect 2020. Huge progress for trauma recovery field." ~ Dr. Arielle Schwartz

We need to treat borderline personality disorder for what it really is – a response to trauma
Thanks for this!

Thank you for sharing this!!

WOW! This is AMAZING NEWS!!!

I wholeheartedly agree with this decision! BPD has FAR too much stigma and I don't believe adequate attention is given to the correlation between BPD and Complex PTSD / trauma. Personally I think they are the same thing. Any differences can be attributed to the unique ways in which individual survivors experience their symptoms.

I have been diagnosed with BPD, however, the more literature I read about Complex PTSD the more I realize that it is FAR more accurate, both in explaining the symptomatology in relation to past traumas and also in explaining how it all happened. I truly hope the DSM follows this path because I believe ALOT of people will be helped FAR more than merely accepting a BPD diagnosis and being treated unfairly in the healthcare systems.

Thanks,
HD7970ghz

My psyd specializes in treating bpd but he agrees it should be called complex trauma.

I’m so thankful he doesn’t have the stigma

I don't really agree with removing BPD. There are a few differences between the two
