Thank you! I would love it if you would do a video on males with bpd. what its like to be a male, your personal thoughts on if there are differences or if you find more discrimination.
@Gymboify7 жыл бұрын
That's my next my friend. I've got the script and fact checking done. My main focus is going to be the poor life expectancy of males with BPD, i'm also going to talk about feeling alone in what many consider a 'female' illness.

Yes. My husband was just diagnosed and we were told of a dbt group therapy he could start in our area (next one is 4 hrs away). When he called to register with the director for the group they told him it was a female group only. Nothing on their website says this and his psychiatrist who referred him knew nothing about it being female only. It was a big blow to him. It took months for him to come to terms with his diagnosis and try to start getting help. And now he is back to square one of not getting help or talking to a therapist and frankly avoiding the whole subject and situation. There is still so much misinformation and stigma out there. And not really any professionals near our area that deal with or even know enough about bpd.

research shows that BPD exists almost exactly 50/50 in the population. However man are much much less likely to seek help than women are. Don't take it personally - we tend to polarise one minute we want to spend every second with someone and the next you don't want to talk to them. It takes alot of bravery to accept the 'your personality has developed in a disfunctional way' thought when you are told you have any personality disorder. DBT is ALOT better in my experience. CBT focuses on change which is very difficult if not impossible for someone with BPD. DBT on the otherhand is about accepts of weaknesses, accept thought as just that - thoughts. DBT doesn't treat you like the child CBT does. it's patronising to us when someone tells you to change with BPD. You first have to accept every dark corner of your mind.

Ect damages memory. Yes, it might save your life and you are so desperate at that time to try anything, but there is a payoff. I had 6 treatments in 1994 and since then have no recollection of yesterday's conversations. I remember my childhood but do not remember my child's. I have been robbed of certain things but am alive. Psychiatrists don't know how it works - it's a gamble. It leaves you numb with hardly any feeling and dis-association. Many psychiatrists speak against it, but they are silenced by others in the profession and its big business with the pharmaceutical groups. It's a form of torture in regimes around the world, so psychiatrists are hardly going to tell you it's wrong. You are that Guinea pig and they are throwing the dice.

People keep mentioning pharmaceutical companies profiting off this treatment. The success rate is 80% which means they won't need to be on meds. The company sells these machines but once a medical establishment owns it, there's no more profit to be gained. Who is profiting from this enough to spend money on propaganda to keep it going. That's illogical.

ECT was the only thing that lifted me out of that horrible darkness. It is truly life-saving & those trolls who believe it causes brain damage obviously haven't researched the procedure, the numerous studies involved, nor have they ever probably been in such a depressed state as to want to commit suicide. ECT is for severe treatment-resistant depression. I first had ECT back in 2007. Bilateral, brief-pulse ECT to be exact. I have since graduated from college and graduate school and never had another episode of depression until 2016. Unfortunately, back in March, my depression returned with a vengeance, but luckily I knew what would work - ECT - and I'm on a maintenance schedule right now. Every individual has to decide for themselves which treatments are right for them, but please don't let foolish anti-psychiatry trolls scare you.

Ignorance is a problem when you have a love one that suffer from these issues there needs to be some compassion and understanding yet there will fear because you don't understand but like any illness you find out about get a better understanding so you know better of what your dealing with

Hey, thanks for this video. Really informative and helpful. Good to have people like yourself openly and honestly talking about mental health. I have BPD with depression and episodes of psychosis. Also Asperger's and ADHD. I take Mirtazipine 45mg for depression and really get on with that. I found that all SSRIs sent me into a downward spiral of depression and suicidal behaviour. I'm taking 300mg Quetiapine twice a day and this had stopped the psychotic episodes but I'm worried about long term side effects. Could I ask what dose of Quetiapine your on? and have you been warned of any long term problems? I have to go for regular blood tests and heart tests. I have tried diazepam and a few other things for anxiety and I've tried many, many sleeping tablets but I find nothing works for me. I think the combination of anxiety and mental health problems combined with ADHD can sometimes drive me into a hyperfocused, hyper alert state. Even when I am not anxious one of my ADHD symptoms is not being able to switch my mind off and not being able to not notice every detail of whats going on and be distracted by every passing sight and sound. Add anxiety, paranoid thoughts, depression into the mix and its like a psychological explosion and I'm climbing the walls and no drug will bring me down. I wondered if you had ever experienced anything like this. Also have you tried Ritalin/ stimulants? I haven't tried Ritalin (I can't as I have several medical issues and this prevents Ritalin being an option) but Ritalin is essentially a stimulant that has a kind of reverse effect on people with ADHD and I actually find caffeine kind of calming. I will sometimes have a few coffees or coke (the black kind, not the white kind!) or a few pro plus tablets to try and relax. Although it's not widely medically recognised there is a lot of anecdotal evidence that people on the ADHD/autism spectrum have a tendency to react differently or even in a reverse manor than others to certain drugs. I tend to be generally very tolerant to all drugs. Even alcohol I can drink a bottle of wine and feel no different. Many sedatives that have been given to me have actually made me hyper alert. I will never forget one night that I spend in hospital. They gave me a dose of tamazepam to help me sleep and I bounced around the ward all night with the energy of 10 hyperactive children at a birthday party and then got terrified at had a panic attack and after many hours collapsed in an exhausted heap - with a sleeping tablet!

Jimmy, my psychiatrist is pushing seroquel on me but I am reluctant to take it. How much do you take? Does it actually work for you? How long are you groggy for every time you take it before it wears off?
@Gymboify8 жыл бұрын
I'm sorry for my late reply. i take 250mg SR which means its different to normal seroquel. it doesn't make me feel groggy at all. if you take the immediate form at night it will make you sleep within 30 mins - i never had any grogginess in the morning after. i'm on the SR form to help boost my anti depressants and to sedate me throughout the day which is not groggginess. the only side effect i have had is weight gain. hope this has helped :)
