In this video Shauna asks me why I decide to become a psychologist? What is it about personality that interests me and I tell her a bit about my story. We also discuss the difference between the 'surface structure' and the 'core structure' of BPD, how finding positive coping mechanisms to an emotional response is key to changing 'your role' in the emotional cycle-- although one will be tempted to go back to their normal response pattern. We discuss some of my past cases and that it is very possible to beat BPD, and I share some of these success stories with Shauna.
It doesn't end there. We discuss changing your role in the cycle, your 'interpersonal circle' will have to change and how one can change their interpersonal beliefs, and what works and who to find a therapist and why I created my YouTube channel.
Who is Shauna?
Shauna was 20 years-old when she was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder. Chaotic relationships, post-traumatic stress, and emotional instability were just the beginning of what became a long-term struggle of pain and suffering that demanded her attention. As a journalism student with a keen interest in psychology and multiple friends with BPD, she set out to learn everything she could about the misunderstood disorder. Through sharing stories from psychologists, friends, and the darkest depths of her own life, Shauna sheds light on the bigger picture. From treatment to relationships, cognitive distortions to stigmas, Shauna has made it her goal to show the world the truth about the disorder, and how she was able to take her life back after being diagnosed. Her book is titled "Beating Borderline: A Life Sentence" to be published by New Degree Press in June 2019and I will send out a link when I get it. It sounds great and as you'll see, she's a bright, intelligent woman who is beating BPD!! She shares her experience so you can beat it too!!
