In today's Look Back Listen: 2020 podcast I delve into the challenges faced by individuals in relationships with those who have Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), focusing on emotional intelligence. I share struggles with a spouse exhibiting BPD symptoms, exposing the lack of empathy and distorted reality common in such situations. I touch on the challenges of managing BPD through therapy but acknowledge the difficulty of staying composed during emotional outbursts. I address reasons behind tolerating emotional abuse, reflecting on terms like codependency and caretaking. This was the beginning of my public journey into understanding the complexities of a relationship with a Cluster B.
