"BPD is a serious illness and while it can be challenging, it"s also treatable.

Generally, people with BPD experience intense mood swings and have trouble regulating their emotions. This can impact relationships with loved ones and lead to impulsive and sometimes destructive behaviors.
With treatment, people who have BPD can live healthy, productive, and fulfilling lives. When you seek treatment, you may be prescribed therapy, medication or, likely, both.

There"s no one medication that is specifically made to treat BPD, but medication can often help relieve symptoms and treat other co-occurring illnesses, like depression. People with BPD may benefit from antidepressants or mood stabilizers to help with extreme mood swings.

Medication is usually prescribed in conjunction with psychotherapy, sometimes called talk therapy. Specifically, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people with BPD challenge their core beliefs and negative patterns of thinking. CBT can help you learn new ways to interact with others while teaching you skills to manage your emotions.

If you"re experiencing severe symptoms, especially if you are a threat to yourself or others, you may be recommended for inpatient mental health treatment. When you no longer require constant medical monitoring, you may step down to outpatient mental health treatment. Or, if you are not in crisis, you may start your treatment as an outpatient.

At our facility, both inpatient and outpatient services typically offer individual, group, and family therapy, along with medication management. Other opportunities may include holistic therapies, like yoga or music therapy, as well as mindfulness training and wellness education."
