Phillipa,
My T and I had a discussion about Borderline Personality Disorder and he said that sometimes they often get really into one person and is so caught up with that one person but then that person will do one thing wrong (that they view is wrong based on their own criteria), and it can be minor or what someone else will not consider something wrong, and the BPD person will flip out on that person. That the reaction is totally out of what is considered reasonable. That BPD attachments can be all or nothing with the reasons with the attachments usually not in the healthy range.
He said as a t, it takes alot of patience and knowledge to treat them. And that they are usually in therapy a long time. But he says with the right therapist they can be fully recovered. My t says he has treated many successfully over the years and they are doing quite well now. He says it is unfortuate for so many that the wrong view is out there. He believes they can be successfully treated and do extremely well.
