What does BPD mean? How Do I Know if Someone is Borderline? Behind the Scenes | Epi 119

In this behind-the-scenes episode, we explore what “borderline” really means beneath the chaos — diving into object constancy, the fragile inner world shaped by early deprivation, and why emotions can flip so fast. I walk you through how these patterns form, what they look like in real time, and how to understand the deeper psychological needs driving the intense shifts. This is a spontaneous look into my clinical thinking as I connect developmental theory, lived experience, and practical insight into one of the most misunderstood conditions.If you are interested in a consultation or seeking virtual therapy services, Dr. Mazzella is accepting new patients.
