Borderline Personality Disorder Therapy in Peachtree City, GA—Counselors

With therapy for borderline personality disorder, many people are able to manage their symptoms and reintroduce stability into their lives.

That is why Thriveworks Peachtree City offers treatment for BPD. Call us or simply schedule online to get started today.

BPD’s Symptoms

BPD can cause people to have an unstable relationship with themselves and with others, but a larger list of symptoms include:

  • Fearing separation and abandonment in relationships.
  • Going to extremes, avoiding any real or perceived relational separation.
  • Combative behavior—frequently lashing out in anger, using sarcasm and bitterness, participating in and/or starting fights, et cetera.
  • A history of tumultuous relationships (often, BPD makes people may glorify others initially, and then when expectations are inevitably broken, they may be deeply disappointed).
  • Frequently altering one’s identity—values, perceptions, and goals in particular.
  • Oscillating from one extreme feeling to another: happiness and outrage, anxiety and anger, and so forth.
  • Experiencing periods of paranoia for minutes or hours wherein one loses touch with the real world.
  • Trouble handling rejection or criticism in any form (even helpful feedback).
  • Threatening to attempt or attempting suicide or self injury as a way to cope with criticism, fear, or rejection.
  • A deep-seated feeling of emptiness.
  • Engaging in risky and impulsive behavior that puts one at risk: reckless driving, gambling, unfettered spending, drug use, self-sabotage, binge eating, unsafe sex, and more.

BPD can also put people at increased risk for other mental health challenges such as eating disorders, self-harm, substance abuse, depression, and addiction.

Risk Factors for BPD

Certain factors that can increase an individual’s risk, such as:

  • A genetic history of mental illness in general or specifically BPD.
  • A smaller hippocampus (the area of the brain that controls stress hormones and responses).
  • Surviving childhood neglect or abuse (verbal, sexual, or physical), especially from a caregiver or parent.
  • Experiencing the death of a caregiver or parent as a child.

BPD’s Interventions

There is significant harm that BPD can introduce into an individual’s life, but with dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), much of that harm can be mitigated. DBT therapy focuses upon teaching people coping and healing skills such as…

  • Mindfulness: Being present with oneself so that every feeling, thought, and sensation is observed without judgment.
  • Emotional regulation: Receiving emotions and processing them in a healthy way.
  • Distress tolerance: Leaning how to cope with life’s inevitable distresses, disappointments, frustrations, and setbacks.
  • Interpersonal effectiveness: Building a wide variety of relationships and functioning well within those relationships.

Having him as an unbiased, professional ear to listen to my situations has proven to be invaluable. So, many people in my life have tried to convince me to act in their interest and not my own.
