Ever wondered what it's like to break free from the cycle of repeated hospitalizations? In this episode of 'Bold Beautiful Borderline', hosts Laurie Edmundson and Sara Amundson sit down with Janelle, who opens up about her journey towards stability and self-advocacy. Janelle shares her harrowing experiences of frequent hospital stays during high school, which nearly derailed her education and strained her friendships.
Despite these hurdles, she found a way to reclaim her life through a new treatment team focused on emotional regulation and the use of Clozapine for suicidal thoughts. The conversation doesn't shy away from the tough topics. Janelle, Laurie, and Sara discuss the critical need for accurate diagnoses, especially for people of color, and the importance of better training for healthcare providers and police officers.
They also highlight the transformative power of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), a treatment that has given Janelle hope for a brighter future. Janelle's story is a testament to the resilience and strength required to navigate the complexities of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Her message is clear: with the right support and treatment, recovery is possible. If you're curious about how Janelle turned her life around and what strategies she used to advocate for herself, this episode is a must-listen.
