Perspectives on the Borderline: The Most Disordered Personality
Manage episode 398782179 series 3296849
Dr. O'Leary discusses some of the history of the borderline personality, how different perspectives have attempted to explain its origin, how to treat it and how not to treat it. He starts in 1947 with some colorful descriptions of patients living with borderline personality disorder that would never get published today, and highlights some of the ways in which we have made progress (or not made progress) in our understanding of this disorder over the next 75 years. As usual, Dr. O'Leary also waxes philosophical about science or the lack thereof in certain perspectives or treatments.
