what is borderline personality disorder? (bpd)

a pervasive pattern of instability of interpersonal relationships, self-image, and affects, and marked impulsivity, beginning in early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.

Bringing awareness to borderlines.

  • “Approximately 1.4% of the U.S. population experiences BPD, 78% of which are women.

    NIH

  • “A BPD diagnosis in young adulthood predicts a host of negative outcomes across the life span, including reduced life expectancy by up to 20 years."

    Castle D.J. (2019)

  • “People diagnosed with BPD are at high risk of dying by suicide. 70% attempt suicide, with a mean of 3.4 lifetime attempts per individual."

    Black et al. (2004); McGirr et al. (2007); Soloff et al. (1994); Joel Paris (2019)

  • “Many individuals seeking treatment for symptoms of borderline personality disorder (BPD) find that many therapists are reluctant to treat this condition."

    Lobel (2022)

The mission?

Visibility for a widely underrepresented group mainly consisting of women!

Who is the story for?

Those with BPD (or other mental health issues) -- to give them visibility, let them know that they are not crazy, or inherently bad; there are paths to healing.

Those who love someone with BPD (or other mental health issues) -- to help them gain insight into the internal lives of disordered minds, and give them tools to help.

Everyone else -- this provides another lens with which to see the world and the people in it, allowing room for empathy while also serving to entertain.

Want to get involved?

I want to make this film more than anything in the entire world, so any help is beyond appreciated!
