In this episode, we welcome back to the podcast Dr. Daniel Fox, a licensed psychologist, international speaker, and award-winning author of “The Borderline Personality Disorder Workbook” and “Complex Borderline Personality Disorder: How Coexisting Conditions Affects Your BPD and How You Can Gain Emotional Balance,” and an expert in the area of personality disorders.

In this interview with Dr. Fox, we discuss how common it is for those who identify with the symptoms of BPD and those with formal diagnoses to feel like they are irreparably broken. Through an exploration of his new book and answering some questions from podcast listeners, Dan and I dive deep into the feelings of shame and guilt that come with childhood abuse and neglect that eventually lead to explosive and impulsive behaviors that often sabotage our attempts to connect with those we love in adulthood.

The goal of this episode is to help you see that you already have what it takes inside of you to begin putting the broken pieces of yourself back together and offer yourself the self-compassion and forgiveness required to start healing more meaningfully. As Dan beautifully puts it, “you’re not a horrible person; you’re a PERSON.”
