Taking Charge: Managing Your Emotions in BPD Relationships

Nobody, when they're triggered, is making somebody else feel that way, and then when they behave, or someone else behaves around you, however, whatever they're triggered by, you're not making them feel that way either.
Ever feel like you're walking on eggshells around someone with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)? This episode dives into the tricky waters of personal responsibility in these relationships. Host and trauma recovery coach A.J. Mahari breaks down why you're not to blame for triggering someone with BPD. She emphasizes that your feelings are shaped by your own thoughts, not by the actions of the person with BPD.
Mahari sheds light on the importance of taking charge of your emotions and reactions, rather than trying to 'fix' the other person. She also touches on how childhood experiences can shape our adult relationships and the role of therapy in overcoming codependency. If you've ever found yourself constantly thinking about a borderline ex or struggling with automatic negative responses, this episode offers practical advice and hope.
By understanding that triggers come from within, you can start to break free from harmful patterns and build healthier relationships. Tune in to learn how to reclaim your emotional well-being and find peace in your interactions.
