Controlling BPD Meltdowns and Acting Out

Controlling BPD meltdowns and acting out is one of the greatest challenges to having BPD. Urges often lead to engaging in maladaptive patterns, and one of my channel's paramount objectives is to help to identify these urges and manage them. Not an easy task, but also not impossible – though it may feel that way sometimes.
We all have urges, but what are they? Well, an urge is simply a strong desire or impulse to do something. These can be activated by many different things, such as external or internal triggers. Common triggers for those with BPD leading to intense urges include negative affect and poor self-concept and an unstable self-image.
Negative affect, according to the BPD criteria from the Alternative Model for Personality Disorder includes emotional lability, anxiousness, separation insecurity, and depressivity; my latest book explores BPD using this model – add picture – if you want to learn more.
Try the exercise mentioned in the video often to build the skill. Don't just try it when activated and contending with intense urges, but try it with minor ones too. Like ice-skating, it takes time and practice to get good.
