Under Quarantine when you have or when you're with someone with BPD
1,651Order The Borderline Personality Disorder Workbook by Dr. Fox: https://goo.gl/LQEgy1
As the COVID-19 is impacting the world and people are self-quarantining themselves, I thought I would do a video on how this impacts individuals with BPD and what they can do to manage some symptoms as they arise and those you may be quarantined with. I also have a video for those with NPD, you may want to check that out too.
For many, this is an uncomfortable situation. You feel trapped in your home, or with people you don’t normally get along with. Let’s talk about what symptoms may come up for you if you have BPD or BPD traits.
For some, this may bring up feelings from childhood when you had little personal power and choice. Perhaps you experienced abuse and neglect during these times. Remember that this may get your core content of vulnerability or weakness going, causing you to engage in your maladaptive patterns. Resist this urge, use your adaptive strategies instead.
