Emily's Story: From BPD Clinician to Patient

I just assumed it was in psych because your master's is in psych, correct. So I would be walking in after an all-nighter every week and then Some Weeks, when I was very tired, I would suddenly remember my high school Spanish and mix them up.
Imagine dedicating your career to helping others manage a mental health condition, only to discover you have it yourself. That's exactly what happened to Emily, a counselor specializing in Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). In this episode of 'Bold Beautiful Borderline', hosts Laurie Edmundson and Sara Amundson sit down with Emily to explore her unexpected journey from clinician to patient.
Emily opens up about her early symptoms, the facade of perfectionism she maintained, and the moment she realized she met the diagnostic criteria for BPD. She also shares how a supportive work environment and a structured routine have been crucial in her own management of the disorder. Plus, Emily offers a peek into her daily self-care practices that help her stay balanced and well.
Whether you're living with BPD, know someone who is, or are simply curious about the condition, Emily's story provides a compelling and relatable perspective on the importance of self-awareness, support, and daily wellness habits.
