I think the thing about borderline and the thing that I am managing now is that the feelings are so much. The feelings are triggered by any number of things.
What does it feel like to live with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and the fear of being abandoned? In this episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour', actor and improviser Celia Finkelstein, known for her roles in 'Horrible Bosses' and 'American Horror Story', opens up about her deeply personal struggles. She talks candidly about her journey through depression, suicidal thoughts, and weight issues, and how these challenges have shaped her life.
Celia shares the raw reality of being in a psych ward and the lengths she went to hide it from her mother. Her story is a testament to the power of therapy and medication in finding hope and inspiration. Host Paul Gilmartin also dives into the intersection of politics and mental health, particularly for survivors of sexual trauma. This episode is a poignant reminder that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
Celia's journey offers hope to anyone feeling invisible or overwhelmed by their mental health struggles.
