Our small, cozy but growing and supportive group welcomes you to join in our quality discussions about Emotional Dysregulation Disorder. What is Emotional Dysregulation Disorder, you ask? Well it is an alternative name for the well known "Borderline" Personality Disorder. Borderline PD has carried with it stigmas and misunderstandings for a long while now. It was originally named as such due to early misinterpretation of patients' symptoms by Freudian and post-Freudian psychiatry. Many people, patients and researchers alike, now find that the BPD label lacks the capcity for adequately portraying the true nature of the illness. Emotional Dysregulation Disorder, on the other hand, suggests more about the symptomology and pain experienced by those with BPD. Additionally, there are people from all walks of life, not being BPD at all, who also relate to emotional dysregulation; an inability or difficulty controlling, feeling and expressing emotions. We welcome people to join who are not diagnosed with "BPD" as well.

On this group, we look to uplift and bring positivity in to the lives of people with "BPD" or similar issues and reclaim a sense of dignity, respect and understanding for our condition, and for ourselves. You can expect friendliness, informative and supportive people if you join Emotional_Dysregulation_Disorder. Don't be shy, join up, check us out and be part of a list as it grows into a great place on the 'Net!!!
