#79 The absence of compassion can lead to BPD thoughts.

4/15/2023
This episode pertains to my experience when you have the absence of compassion and that closeness and loving words can lead to the thoughts Of infidelity from the person with BPD because they figure if you're not acting loving towards them and offering loving words that you must be offering all that to somebody else so that can be a huge trigger and either end up with them splitting or slowly leading into a much bigger and explosive argument either lasting the normal time that your person splits or any longer period of time. So this is views and suggestions for my personal experiences in regards to the subject. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/krazy-papa/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/krazy-papa/support

#68 IMPORTANT EPISODE!!! This is about a Surprising BPD change for good and 8 Days of Heaven!

5/24/2022
I would invite EVERYONE who has BPD or involved with someone who has BPD to understand that after knowing my wife and her disorder getting progressinly worse since 2012 to the point that she was so consumed by her disorder she became someone I did not know anymore, she was not the woman I fell in love with and not the person that was such a loving, kind and caring person not only to me and loved ones but to strangers as well.... I DO NOT have any answer at all, I have not researched yet how this is possible but in the past and as with anyone with BPD, when stress or emotions are introduced they are known to split to avoid, deflect and distort reality to avoid dealing with the emotion, BUT to my surprise with her and to my surprise to how BPD works, she had experienced the most traumatic events over the past 6 months which she was turned away, abandoned, pushed away by friends, family and even her children... She lost every material possession she owned including her place to live, her and there can be a significant change for the better for themselves and for the people involved in the life of the BPD because I have seen the sadness of the worst for my wife being inflicted with BPD and seeing such a good human being with so much love and caring not only for me but everyone in her life including strangers! There has been over a 100 things I have said and done weather it was actions, words, songs etc. that in the past would have triggered an episode being small to a full blown episode which in the past made me walk on eggshells and even then it was a crap shoot, and with the most traumatic events she sustained over the past 6 months from losing her home, every possession she owned including her pets, being homeless, being pushed out and abandoned by her friends and even own child and feeling lower than ever in her life and finally contemplating suicide and landing in the behavioral health ward twice at 2 separate hospitals in less than a month and coming out of it being the most thoughtful, amazing human being that I have know and grown to love then being robbed of all that because of BPD taking over her mind, but if all this that happened to her, someone diagnosed with full blown BPD, even I thought it was could to either suicide or that I would be the devil in her mind to hate and see to it that her presence was never to be around me and forget me forever, yet to my surprise she has subsided her BPD and has been more loving, thoughtful and super amazing than I remember ever in years and years even before her diagnosis of BPD, I cant explain it... I have to research more on how this might have turned a 180 for the better, but until then, Im ever so grateful and thankful and want to take advantage of every blessed minute of this amazing woman that I gave my heart to 34 years ago, and if her BPD surfaces I still will be there there to love her and support her as I have always tried my best, but even more now than ever! THERE IS HOPE OUT THERE! Trust me when I tell you that if she is capable of Turing a 180 ANYONE can do it! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/krazy-papa/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/krazy-papa/support
