No person with the condition presents the exact same symptoms as someone else and each person develops BPD for different reasons. In the course, you’ll discover how symptoms may present themselves and gain awareness of the various types of Borderline Personality Disorder.
With the symptoms of BPD being common with other disorders, individuals are often misdiagnosed with a different mental health disorder and others can be misdiagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder. You’ll learn about how it is diagnosed and the potential causes of the condition. The course also explains how BPD is typically treated, the limitations of treatment within the healthcare system, and which alternative treatments may help to alleviate symptoms.
BPD is, unfortunately, surrounded by myths and common misconceptions. The Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness Diploma Course clears things up by analysing these popular myths and discussing the realities of the disorder, along with considering media portrayal of the condition and the damaging effects this has had on how it is perceived.
Whether as a professional, friend or family member, the Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness Diploma Course explains how you can support someone with BPD and how to look after yourself as you do. The course also provides tips that talk directly to you if you have the condition yourself, offering advice on coping mechanisms that can be used for different emotions, and how to understand yourself, your triggers and how to manage your symptoms.
