WHY MUST I TRUST YOU ?!!

Many people detest people that is insecure .However ,have you ever think about the reasons on why they are being so insecure ? Maybe it is an illness ? Yes ,that 's right - There is an illness named borderline personality disorder or bpd that have strong insecurity in nature where the patient is hard to control his / her own emotion and thoughts .

The main hallmark in this illness is the roller coaster alike relationship in their life due to characteristics of this illness where the patient have 2 side in themselves - the loving part towards other people ( you are the one that love me) & the dark part where he / she belittle other people (YOU NEVER CARE ABOUT ME !!!).This draw a huge havoc in their relationship thus creating the roller coaster alike relationship .

Let me tell you about the causes of this illness .Firstly ,this illness might be inherited from their family members as the characteristics of being impulsive and aggressive could be inherited from their parents .

Second ,the lack of care and attention since infant or childhood period might cause this illness as child / baby need a lot of care and attention from their parents .

Third ,the unstable family relationship might create the poor judgement in a person and cause he / she to do things recklessly .

In order to accurately diagnose a mental illness ,we need at least 5 sympton .So let's have a look in the symptons of this illness .

a) The patient tend to have extreme emotion like sadness ,fear and anger towards abandonment ,small separation or even a perceived abandonment.

b) They have unstable self image .They often change their own feelings ,opinion etc .Basically ,they just do not know themselves well .

c) They often perform spontaneous harmful act like reckless driving ,spending money like a maniac and drinking alcohol.
\
d) They frequently having suicidal thoughts .

e) Their emotions is intense and highly changeable from a few hour period to a few days period .

There are some other trait in the patient of bpd where he / she detect emotion better on people 's expression as they are more sensitive towards emotion .Other than ,they often cut themselves to regulate emotion ,punish themselves and express themselves .

There are 3 main treatment for this illness .Firstly ,we have psychotherapy which is the talk therapy performed by psychologist .Second ,medication could be used to treat the symptons of this illness .Third ,hospitalization is used on the patient with serious condition so that the doctor could monitor the patient well .

Do not be ashamed to seek for help if you think that you have this illness - having mental illness is NOT  a shameful act .It is more shameful to hide yourself till your condition is getting worse when you can quickly get the treatment and get well .Other than that ,do give support  mentally and encourage people around you that have mental illness to seek for treatment .Everyone is just a human that deserve love despite what  mental illness that they have - We should try to have empathy towards them - they are suffering as well .....
