For many, having BPD is like living in emotional overdrive. And whether you are feeling depressed, anxious, worried, or angry, you might struggle just to get through each day. So, how can you start balancing your moods and managing your symptoms?

In addition, you'll learn how to deal with the inevitable negative self-talk, feelings of paranoia, and self-invalidation.
