Let's break down BPD anger because it's very real. BUT when you misunderstand it, it's very dangerous for all of us. In this episode I talk about a few anger stories, the reasons why we have to understand and destigmatize anger and we hear from listeners about their experience with anger, what causes it, and how it feels. They are SO beautiful and articulate answers. Enjoy!

Self-sabotage can be easily defined by it's ChatGPT definition: "Self-sabotage is when someone undermines their own success, well-being, or goals through behaviors or thought patterns that create obstacles or prevent progress. These actions often arise unconsciously, driven by fear, self-doubt, unresolved trauma, or conflicting desires."

But, it isn't as pretty as those words are all neatly packaged in two sentences. Self-sabotage can be ugly and brutal. Especially when you have BPD. Today Leslie is here for a guest co-host episode to talk all about it. 

If you want to hear what Leslie has been up to since we saw her last head over to Patreon for a 15 minute extended episode of the pod.

Hey ya'll - welcome to a greatest hits episode of the pod. Remember, no new eps until the new year for a little rest. Unless of course you're on Patreon, then there's new content over there so head on over if you'd like. 

This is one of the most popular episodes of 2022. It's an interesting discussion in response to a podcast I listened to from Dax Shepherd and Monica Padman about BPD. I wasn't pleased at the time. 

This episode features Laurie Edmundson, previous co-host of the BBB pod. If you want to follow what she's up to she can be found at laurieedmundson.com 

Enjoy and happy holidays!

What an interesting episode to record. Apparently, Nick Cannon has Narcissistic Personality Disorder. He recently came out with his NPD diagnosis and I have a lot of thoughts. 1. This is SO important that he came out publicly. 2. I didn't love the video clip response to his coming out, but perhaps I'm a bit biased. Either way, this is important dialogue that we NEED celebrities, authors, influencers, and well known individuals to talk about. 

When people come out with their disorders, those of us with highly stigmatized diagnoses become less hidden. One person at a time. 

Here's the article: https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/29/entertainment/nick-cannon-diagnosed-narcissistic-scli-intl/index.html

People pleasing is hurting us - I spoke about this a few weeks ago. In today's episode I talk about HOW to actually do this. Not just talk about it. Good luck!

Claire has been on the podcast before in the past and fast forward a few years and she's married and in her final year of graduate school to become a clinical therapist. I first met Claire long before she was even engaged and I'm feeling some strange nostalgia as I write this. 

HONESTLY WHERE THE F HAS TIME GONE? 

Claire recently sent me a message about her struggle emotionally with a difficult situation at school and we decided it would be a cool opportunity to explore on the podcast her experience learning to provide therapy. I can't wait to see who she becomes as a therapist, who she helps, and the impact she will have on this field that so desperately needs more people like us in it. Thank you Claire for sharing your journey with me, again, on the podcast.
