This book spoke to so many of my inner conflicts with my profession with humanity and nuance. Trauma, diagnosis, abandonment ETC.
again - borderline is so misunderstood and this book addressed the importance of some of these topics while holding space for a future beyond the way we categorize & pathologize people.
Truly well done & thought provoking w/ excellent amounts of history intertwined w/ lived experiences.

BPD is so significantly misunderstood + I hate the stigma surrounding it. I have complex feelings about the diagnostic criteria (and diagnosis in general) and how it’s categorized - I’ve been having lots on conversations about bpd and the overlap of symptoms with complex trauma and the autistic experience as well. Enjoying looking at a bit of a historical perspective with it.
