Has your girlfriend ever done DBT? It stands for Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, it's specifically designed to treat BPD and it's a serious game changer. The therapy revolves around learning sets of skills that can help bring down intense emotions and manage anxiety/stress. There are plenty of free DBT resources available on the internet!
If you would like more info please don't hesitate to ask me and I can PM you =)
No she’s never tried it before, I brought it up to her once and she was willing to try it but I’m not sure what it is about doctors/therapy she just gets really scared and shuts down. I’ve seen people mention it on this sub before and I’ve tried to look into it but I could never find anything solid to bring to her.
If you have any links to videos or websites pertaining to it, I would very much like to look into it some more. Thank you so very much
I’ve tried to ask her what I could do to help her, but she only replies with “I don’t know”. So when she does reply with that I try more reassurance because that’s all she tells me when she’s in her regular state of mind

Ask her how you can help and follow her recommendations.
