BPD Diagnosis Stories - The BPD Bunch S2E1


Listen Later

Xannie, Alex, Darren, Sophie, Georgette and Mo tell the stories of how they were diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. The Bunch chat about what it felt like to find out they had BPD,  what they learned from the experience, and how they might approach seeking a diagnosis differently, knowing what they know now.
