He’s definitely everything that was advertised. And we can generally hit. With Nove out here, we’re suspecting Travis Smith isn’t available and he’s our best closer. Ming keeps all of that close to the vest so unsure if he’s hurt....

[quote]i think the issue isnt whether or not its an accurate diagnosis, but rather the repercussions that come with a BPD diagnosis later in life. a pre-teen exhibiting BPD behaviors could and should absolutely be treated as if they have the diagnosis, but the minute it gets put pen to paper as a b...

[quote]Personally Disorders are based in rigid patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior that persist into adulthood.

[quote]The diagnosis really isn’t the important thing here, and labelling a pre teen as “Borderline” is malpractice.[/quote] Gotta agree to disagree here. DSM allows diagnosis as young as 12 with symptoms persistent for at least a year. It’s rare but it happens. Unless she has disclosed traum...

[quote]BPD is typically from some type of abuse. Have you addressed that? Usually that is step 1.[/quote] That’s not necessarily true. While some may report abuse as a trigger, not everyone who has BPD was abused. And not everyone who has been abused develops BPD. And honestly, it’s likely n...
