Borderline & Beyond: How BPD Care Changes Around the World


Listen Later

Navigating Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is challenging enough, but what happens when you’re seeking help across borders? In this episode, Xannie, Solène and special guest, Fio, share their personal experiences living with BPD while navigating mental health care systems around the world. They talk about seeing therapists across countries like the UK, France, China, and the UAE, and the challenges of finding competent therapists who truly understand BPD.

The Bunch explores the impact of cultural views on mental health, the importance of accurate diagnosis, and what it feels like to mask symptoms in therapy. Learn about the hurdles faced when dealing with mental health care providers with limited BPD training, and the importance of finding therapists who understand the full picture. Whether you’re struggling with BPD or supporting someone who is, this episode provides insight into the unique, and often misunderstood, world of BPD.
