  • My new BFFS

    I love this podcast. I relate to different people who share and I feel like I’m not crazy/alone in this challenging internal landmine. Learning the landscape of my emotions is intimidating and often exhausting and I feel I have a fun group of equally quirky folks to bond with on this journey. Also recognizing the unspoken work we go through to function in a neurotypical world! Thank you for the stories and advise! I also love how hyperbolic everyone is. It’s so entertaining and relatable.

  • Please! Increase the gain!!!! Can’t hear!

    Great show with such valuable information that is, if you can hear them! It’s incredibly frustrating wanting to listen in and all I hear is muffled voices and no, other podcasts sound just fine. Hope you keep up the good work and make yourselves louder!

  • Best Podcast if you have BPD

    I have been in functional recovery for BPD for three years now, and this has been one of the best podcasts I have ever listened to since my diagnosis. I cannot recommend this enough! It feels so nice to not feel alone when BPD can be so stigmatizing. It’s been so helpful for me on my hard days and when I’m struggling. They have great advice and I love how real and honest they are all. It’s really helped me not feel so bad and ashamed of myself. Please keep making episodes! You guys are awesome!... more

What BPD Actually Felt Like in My Brain (Meet Justin)
Q: How did you initially respond to the BPD diagnosis after having several prior labels?
