Good afternoon, everyone. It's Dr. Nigro again. Our next episode of Psychology Unplugged. Hope you guys had a great week.

Thanks to all of you who continue to reach out with all the positive comments and feedback. And I try to get back to as many of you guys as possible.

I'll give you my contact information at the end of the episode, as I always do.

If I haven't gotten back to you, definitely keep reaching out. I will do my absolute best.

Again, look forward to doing this every week. For you guys who follow this, it's very organic,

and ideas pop into my head head and I go with it. So I'm going to,

I was way back in the grocery store. And as you know, I'm a huge Bruce Springsteen fan. And one of

my favorite songs was on East Street Radio on Sirius XM. And it's the song Racing in the Street.

Great song from the Darkness on the Edge of Town album.

I think it's one of Bruce's favorites as well.

And there was a line in the song that made me want to re-approach borderline personality because that is probably the

one disorder I get the most calls about, the most emails, the most text messages.

But I wanted to take this episode to kind of approach it from the perspective of somebody with borderline pathology.

I've done several episodes and really outlying the pathology of it, the anger, the destruction, the impact it has on the individuals in relationship with them,

because this, as I've said, is a relational disorder.

And there was a line, as I was, again, I was listening in the car.

You know, but not, you know, the song, it's, you know, she sits on the porch of her daddy's house with all her pre-dreams been torn and she stares off alone into the night with the eyes

of one who waits for not, hopes are not being born.

And it just kind of struck me that, why don't I re-approach borderline from the perspective of what do individuals, what this disorder?

So if I refer to them, they, these, I'm in no way minimizing or trying to dehumanize it but it's a disorder that I

have extensive training and and and experience in and as again I don't do much therapy but I

primarily treat borderline it is it is a disorder that is not only treatable.
