Emotionally Extra: Living With -- and Loving -- a Child with Borderline Personality Disorder

  • Resumen

  • Borderline Personality Disorder is stigmatized in our culture, so much so that MamaJay asked to be anonymous for this episode. In this moving conversation, we talk about the difficulties of parenting a child with emotional dysregulation, when the regular moments of life can lead to explosive anger and lasting emotional extremes.  Our conversation addresses the stigma around this condition, how friends can make you feel as if you’re doing something wrong, the experience of parenting both before and after an official diagnosis, dialectic behavioral therapy, and how MamaJay learned to better handle her own emotions and show up as skillfully as possible as a mother. We also touch on the poignant challenge of loving a child whose mental health condition puts him at high risk of suicide. Finally, MamaJay also shares some of the critical resources that have helped her and her son navigate this difficult mental health journey.
    MamaJay is a Healthangel on Health Together, where she welcomes questions and conversation from anyone who might need a little comfort or advice.

    MamaJay recommends the following resource for families living with Borderline Personality Disorder: NEA BPD Family Connections Program
