    BPD Complex ptsd vs. bpd

    I do not believe bpd exists since there is no scientific data to support it. , the axis ll diagnoses are not empirically based they arean invention of sociologists and psychologists who have no empirical data other than discussion amongst themselves to back it up. Bpd is invalid scientifically.

    BPD Complex ptsd vs. bpd

    There is no science behind personality disorders. I am a purist social science is not science and there is no empirical science supporting the cluster of behaviors that constitute what social non scientists describe. This is called conjecture not science and if you research bpd you will see...

    BPD Complex ptsd vs. bpd

    Ok anthony you are contradicting yourself. Cptsd and ptsd have no scientific basis even though pet scans and serious neuroscience have been invested in it proving it to be a biological phenomenon but bpd which has no scientific study behind it just pure conjecture is valid? That's funny:D...

    Was It Really My Fault??

    The relationship between siblings is enigmatic at best. For many years I did not speak to my older sister because she was hypercritical and hurt me deeply. But at the time I could not appreciate that she was hurting too. It seems really hard to believe when someone is cruel to others that...

    BPD Complex ptsd vs. bpd

    @Solara I understood perfectly but I disagree with your analysis. It is bpd not cptsd that has no scientific basis. Good luck.

    BPD Complex ptsd vs. bpd

    I think you should read my post above. People are being thrown into the bpd diagnosis due to lack of education on the part of therapists incompetent to treat trauma and ignorant of the etiology of trauma symptoms. As a result of mistreatment these individuals are getting worse not better.

    What Are The Main Differences Between Ptsd And Complex Ptsd?

    @Solara the bottom line is that you should be supported not harmed when seeking help. I have ptsd and I know there is scientific evidence of my illness. I feel for people like my late friend lisa who, like you was diagnosed with bpd and she was not supported and she commited suicide as a...
