Drowning in a social media wormhole, exploring whether you have a personality disorder? Actively seeking an expert opinion on what is contributing to your distress, emotional instability, fractured relationships, and overall struggle with life? Individuals with personality disorders, like borderline personality disorder, experience distress or impairment from deep seeded patterns of behavior and perspective which clash with society's expectations. This can result in feelings of isolation and have a negative impact on one's life. You want treatment, but where's the experienced providers who specialize in this? That's the hard part.

Trauma is what happens, but grief is what lingers. You may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or just exhausted. If so, there is a high probability that your heart has been broken from some sort of loss either recently or long ago. You may have experienced the loss of a loved one, a divorce, or the break-up of a romantic or important relationship in your life. You may have developed an awareness that your life is not as happy or fulfilling as you want it to be. Regardless of the hurt you’ve experienced, you know how you feel, and it probably isn’t good. You also know you want to feel better, but you're not really sure where to start.
