Finding Hope From The Polarized Reality Of BPD
Borderlines can and need to work toward welcoming in hope one step at a time through mindfulness and radical acceptance.
In this program A.J. Mahari talks about how those with Borderline Personality Disorder can find hope from her own experience as someone who had BPD and has recovered. Mahari knows what it is like to fight the battle of borderline negativity to find her way to the hope that helped her to go on and recover.
Mahari talks about what blocks many with BPD from feeling hope or like they can have hope. Mahari encourages those with BPD to begin to realize the importance of addressing borderline abandoned pain that sits between them and the ability to hold and live from a hopeful place inside.
Mahari talks about, as someone who as been there, the cognitive distortions that have created the polarized ways that borderlines experience their thoughts and feelings and how that polarization is what often blocks hope.Mahari also outlines the ways that borderlines can work toward welcoming in hope one step at a time through mindfulness and radical acceptance. Mahari also shares a couple of her own experiences when she was in recovery from BPD, in group therapy, that give a clear illustration of the reality of hope as a catalyst for change and the reality of the blessings of paradox.
