Borderline Personality Disorder Explained

is not a diagnosis, but this kind of

behavior is one of the major signs of

something called borderline personality

disorder. People with BPD feel emotions

at 200%. When they are happy, they are

abandon them altogether. They could also

harm themselves. They are not seeking

attention. Their brain's emotional

system is always on overdrive. And the

part that's supposed to regulate those

emotions couldn't handle it. And they
