Fascinating perspective on the misnaming and misunderstanding of BPD. When we frame it as 'Abandonment Obsession Disorder,' we shift the conversation from pathology to the deeply human need for secure attachment. Families struggling with relational stress often get caught in this loop—reacting to the behaviors instead of understanding the fears that drive them. The challenge isn’t just renaming a disorder, but rethinking how we approach healing: not through control or symptom management, but by creating an environment where safety in love becomes possible.
