Untangling Anger: Laurie and Sara's Journey with BPD

Radical acceptance is when you stop fighting reality, stop responding with impulsive or destructive behaviors, when things aren't going the way you want them to and let go of bitterness that may have been keeping you trapped in a cycle of suffering.
How do anger and Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) intersect? In this episode of 'Bold Beautiful Borderline', hosts Laurie Edmundson and Sara Amundson tackle the often misunderstood connection between BPD and anger. The media often paints a picture of those with BPD as perpetually angry or violent, but Laurie and Sara are here to set the record straight. They candidly share their own experiences with intense emotions, diving deep into the guilt and self-hatred that often accompany these feelings.
Through personal stories, they reveal how therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) have been instrumental in helping them manage their anger. They also discuss the concept of radical acceptance, a cornerstone in their emotional toolkit, which has helped them move forward from painful experiences. Laurie and Sara emphasize the importance of strong psychosocial support in living a fulfilling life with BPD.
This episode offers a compassionate look at the realities of managing anger with BPD, making it a must-listen for anyone affected by this condition or seeking to understand it better.
