Welcome to BorderlinerNotes, a mental health channel focused - at present - mainly on personality disorders like Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD).
The channel started as a way to make use of extra interview footage from the documentary film we made named BORDERLINE (more info / watch it at borderlinethefilm.com). It has grown into a continued effort to offer information to people that might help them get a proper diagnosis and good treatment, as well as a place where clinicians and those working in the mental health field can learn to be better treaters. The goal is to democratize access to quality information, create positive change in the mental health field, and to do it artfully and with feeling.
We put out videos most weeks -- interviews with experts and people with diagnoses, and now we're working on real-life psychiatric interviews.
We love your comments and suggestions. Thanks for stopping by and being part of the community!
