BPD Understanding vs Being Understood

A.J. Mahari, author, speaker, mental health and life coach talks about the need for understanding about BPD and the need to be understood. For those with Borderline Personality Disorder and their loved ones - non borderlines - understanding BPD and each needing to be understood by the other is central to the many misunderstandings that generate painful emotional chaos. Both the "borderline" and the "non borderline" need not only to understand BPD but also to be understood by each other
in ways that can build up healthier relating instead of tearing down connection and communication needed to have and maintain reasonably
healthy relationships.

very good video. It helped me to understand my mother a lot better, and to understand bi-polar disorder too, which I have come to believe is an advanced level of borderline personality disorder, caused by the individual not seeking outside validation, but has turned inward, creating their own internal validation ie grandiosity.
