The Harsh Realities of BPD Relationships: Insights from A.J. Mahari

People with BPD have no self from which to relate to others. People with BPD are not capable of loving you.
Have you ever felt like you're giving all your love but getting nothing back in return? In this episode, Counsellor and Trauma Recovery Coach A.J. Mahari takes a deep dive into one of the toughest aspects of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD): the inability to truly love. With over 30 years of experience, Mahari doesn't sugarcoat the hard truths.
She explains how people with untreated or unsuccessfully treated BPD struggle with a 'lost self', making it impossible for them to form genuine attachments or receive love. The episode also sheds light on the disorganized attachment styles common in BPD, where the push-pull dynamics can leave partners feeling emotionally drained and confused. But it's not all bleak; Mahari emphasizes the importance of therapy and self-compassion, offering hope and practical advice for those trying to heal from these challenging relationships.
If you're grappling with the aftermath of a BPD relationship, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about understanding the disorder; it's about finding your path to emotional recovery.
