Message To My Readers

My dear BPD / non-BPD reader,

Welcome to my website!

I'm on the "battlefield" for over a year now, helping my fellow BPDs and non-BPDs overcome this horrific mental disorder, developing, improving, and refining everything that helps my readers and clients FINALLY have the lives they want.

As you probably know, officially Borderline Personality Disorder is declared "untreatable". Ask the specialists and 99% will tell you there is no treatment for it.

So what am I doing here? What is the meaning of the hundreds of hours invested into this website and the books I am making available? Who am I to go against what is generally known and accepted about borderline personality?

To answer these questions I need to touch on several key points.

(1) First, I am NOT trying to prove anything to anybody. The information I make available on this website, in my books, and during the online therapy and coaching sessions are to HELP, INFORM,  and DEVELOP those who accept and embrace it.

(2) I AM an EX-BPD sufferer MYSELF. Formally I have never been diagnosed, but after five years of studying psychology (3 year BA in "Psychology" and 2 year MA in "Clinical Psychology, Psychological Counseling, And Psychotherapy") and lots of self-analysis, in July 2010 I finally discovered that my chaotic emotions, out-of-the-blue angry and impulsive reactions, the inner void and pain, the lack of trust in me and people, the attitude that I'll never be really loved and I will never get the things that I want in life, the almost constant feeling of abandonment although I married a beautiful, loving, and understanding woman, and all the contradictory thoughts and emotions I had inside of me described the symptoms of borderline personality perfectly.

Along with the generally known symptoms of borderline personality, here on this website you will find LOTS of BPD manifestations, attitudes, and insights that are UNIQUE and you'll not find anywhere else. I guarantee it.

(3) BPD is a mental DISORDER, NOT a mental ILLNESS! Mental disorders are INFORMATIONAL, while mental illnesses are PHYSICAL.

The problems of the physical mind (i.e. the brain) rarely can be treated. Sufferers' condition can only be improved with medication, diet, physical exercises, counseling, and support.

A mental disorder however, such as BPD, being informational in nature, virtually can be treated completely because we can RE-LEARN the beliefs, thoughts, and thinking patterns that are causing the BPD symptoms. In practice the difference between those who overcame their BPD and those who didn't stands in the fact that, although ALL want to become BPD-free, NOT ALL BPD sufferers are willing to do the necessary work.

(4) When I first evaluate a client, I'm ALWAYS looking at the big picture. This way I can determine whether at the bottom of the symptoms are standing borderline personality structures or something else. This step is crucial because it determines the main strategy of the entire therapy.

For example, many of my BPD clients had been misdiagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Anxious type disorders, or Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

Some clients present symptoms specific for two or more mental disorders. Personality disorders usually being rooted in certain early life experiences, the dominant symptoms are set apart from the non-dominant ones based on the type of the early life experiences and the presenting symptoms.

As far as BPD vs Bipolar Disorder goes, from DSM-IV stand point as well as from my experience these two disorders are excluding each other. In other words, one can't have BPD and Bipolar Disorder at the same time. More details in this article. It is also true that many BPD sufferers have symptoms that resemble Bipolar Disorder, especially those who are acting in. AGAIN, a CORRECT diagnosis can be reached ONLY by looking at the big picture of a client's symptoms, meaning that present symptoms, present cognitions, and past life events and experiences are taken into account together.

When the main mental disorder is not BPD but has BPD type symptoms intertwined, the main disorder should always be treated first.

(5) Science being constructed by people, it follows an evolutionary path very similar to the way people and societies develop over time.

If we look at both people and science at one particular moment in time, their stage of development may seem predetermined, stable. HOWEVER, if we look at them over decades and centuries, we can always see clearly that development, evolution is rather "fluid". It flows from one stage into the next.

THUS, things, treatments, achievements that were "impossible" in the past, became "possible" in the present.

Thus, I'd rather say that present day "possibles" are discoveries and new understandings accumulated on top of the "impossibles" of the past.

(6) A mentally healthy and a BPD afflicted brain are basically working the same way, their "mechanics" are the same (the difference stands in the hormonal functioning that is driven by the thinking processes). One person having been grown up in a healthy environment and the other one in an unhealthy environment, obviously their BRAIN PROGRAMMING differ. Thus a BPD person and a non-BPD person think, feel, and react differently in face of same / similar stimuli.

My treatment is based on the scientifically accepted "workings" of the human mind and brain, and having them adapted to the special needs and problems of BPD.

I built my treatment as I was first using it, testing it, and refining it ON MYSELF.

Basically, the negative irrational emotions and maladaptive behaviors are caused by unhealthy cognitions, while rational emotions and adaptive behaviors have at the bottom healthy cognitions ("positive thinking" or "good thoughts" as they are popularly called). My treatment addresses a special type of cognitions that are scientifically called central cognitions. These central cognitions are standing at the bottom of our identities - our personalities, and are represented first by belief systems that are describing ourselves, other people, and the world in general, second by thinking patterns (e.g., the "black and white" thinking style), and third by emotional and behavioral patterns (i.e. automatic / impulsive emotional and behavioral reactions).

My treatment "steers" one's thinking from the negative to the positive. Thus, it DOES NOT have any negative side effects.
