Leslie & Talon) This episode explores the social concept of the "gifted" child and the ways in which neurodivergence can present as giftedness, the social and class structures that influence giftedness, and ultimately the shame and emotion dysregulation that many adults who were raised as gifted children experience. 

THE DEFINITION OF THE GIFTED CHILD: 

A gifted child is a young person who demonstrates significantly advanced intellectual ability or exceptional talent compared to peers of the same age. This may include early mastery of language, complex problem-solving skills, strong memory, intense curiosity, or advanced creativity. Giftedness is not simply “being smart”; it reflects differences in how a child thinks, processes information, and experiences the world. Many gifted children show asynchronous development, meaning their intellectual abilities may be far ahead of their emotional or social development. While giftedness can be a strength, these children may also face unique challenges such as perfectionism, heightened sensitivity, social isolation, or pressure tied to achievement. Understanding giftedness involves recognizing both the child’s advanced abilities and their need for emotional support and developmentally appropriate care.

Let's break down BPD anger because it's very real. BUT when you misunderstand it, it's very dangerous for all of us. In this episode I talk about a few anger stories, the reasons why we have to understand and destigmatize anger and we hear from listeners about their experience with anger, what causes it, and how it feels. They are SO beautiful and such articulate answers.

Let's break down BPD anger because it's very real. BUT when you misunderstand it, it's very dangerous for all of us. In this episode I talk about a few anger stories, the reasons why we have to understand and destigmatize anger and we hear from listeners about their experience with anger, what causes it, and how it feels. They are SO beautiful and such articulate answers.

It’s especially common among people with neurodivergent experiences (like autism, ADHD, or anxiety), but anyone can do it and those of us with BPD certainly do. 

This episode was accidental and came organically through conversation so we just hit record. Please note that at the beginning we talk heavily about suicidal ideation. We're safe. We hope you are.

National Suicide Preve...

]]> A BPD classic struggle is to love the potential you see in them or who you want them to be and forgetting to see who they are. I've done this with dozens of people: friends, family, partners, even co-workers. I struggle to meet people where they're at and instead dream about how I can make them fit into my world the way I want because maybe then I'll be worthy of love? 

It never works. IT. NEVER. WORKS. 

Leslie and I break down the struggle to be in the present moment when falling for people.

Leslie (as guest co-host) Self-sabotage can be easily defined by it's ChatGPT definition: "Self-sabotage is when someone undermines their own success, well-being, or goals through behaviors or thought patterns that create obstacles or prevent progress. These actions often arise unconsciously, driven by fear, self-doubt, unresolved trauma, or conflicting desires."

But, it isn't as pretty as those words are all neatly packaged in two sentences. Self-sabotage can be ugly and brutal. Especially when you have BPD. Today Leslie is here for a guest co-host episode to talk all about it. 

If you want to hear what Leslie has been up to since we saw her last head over to Patreon for a 15 minute extended episode of the pod.

I can't wait to see who she becomes as a therapist, who she helps, and the impact she will have on this field that so desperately needs more people like us in it.

]]> OMG WE MADE A VIDEO PODCAST FINALLY - WATCH THIS EPISODE HERE! 

Did you know there are six different types of boundaries? Yeah, I didn't either until I started practicing therapy. Which is wild because this stuff seems basic, right? WRONG. I couldn't list what the boundaries were, I just vaguely knew about boundaries and struggled with them. In this episode Talon and I talk about the six different types of boundaries and our examples with both good and bad boundaries.

Brooke) So you want to be a DBT Therapist? But Academia is bullshit Part 1 (Feat. Brooke) This episode did not go where Brooke and I planned and at first I had like a week's worth of guilt and shame. Did I overstep? Did Brooke think I was dissing her path? Did I hurt her feelings? Will everyone who listens think I'm abusive? 

ALL THE FEARS. 

And then I listened back and realized that Brooke and I had a super rad conversation and it was uncomfortable for both of us at times to engage in dialogue about how our work and our degrees won't give us any authentic and sincere worth at the end of the day - it is fleeting at best because there will always be the next thing. Worth is internal and Brooke's future as a DBT Therapist and advocate will be bright and beautiful no matter what way she enters it. And I'm allowed to misstep with my boundaries sometimes because of my passion and ethics about my field. This episode series will be two parts and next week is even more beautiful.

She is the perfect example of radical acceptance - perfect meaning there is not such thing as perfect. Ending up at radical acceptance is in fact PERFECT. We are honored to chat with Brittni about this and plan to do so one more time next week!

]]> This episode follows last week's episode and continues Danielle's story of being incarcerated and then moved to a substance use treatment facility (even though she doesn't use substances). 

She shares about how kindness of others helped her through a difficult time and how the world needs so much more support for people who use substances, have comorbid mental health challenges, and have recently left the criminal justice system. 

This episode featured Laurie Edmundson who previously was a co-host of this project. You can find her at https://www.laurieedmundson.com and on IG @laurieanned where you will find ways to access The Super Feelers Club and other projects she works on.

]]> Sara Amundson & Laurie Edmundson Buzzsprout-14305058 Sun, 11 Feb 2024 05:00:00 -0800 1444 full false Criminal justice reform for the mentally ill is needed now (feat. Danielle) Criminal justice reform for the mentally ill is needed now (feat. Danielle) Danielle is a regular Super Feeler who suddenly disappeared for 9 months. We were worried about her safety, having no success at reaching out. Until 9 months later when Laurie got a DM on instagram saying "if you ever want to record an episode about what it's like to have BPD in jail let me know". And so this episode was obviously recorded asap. 

In this episode Danielle bravely shares her story of what it was like to go through the criminal justice system with borderline personality disorder. She shares about the lack of medical autonomy and privacy she faced and how she started running mini DBT classes in jail to support others like her. (aka Super Feelers: Incarcerated Edition). 

This episode has a number of triggers including: medical harm, systemic discrimination, overdose, and solitary confinement.

Also please excuse the issues with audio quality - Laurie was on vacation and turns out her internet was really bad...  

*** quick fact checking note: around the 19 minute mark Danielle says she's talking about the 14th amendment but it's actually the 13th amendment. Sorry about that!

Wired For Addiction provides an individually tested biomarker 31-page report that hopes to negate the often ineffective and dangerous “try-it-out” phase of medications by isolating the individual’s specific genes and the associated interaction with the drugs and drug types listed in the report.  In matters of health, life, and death, empirical evidence should not be the standard of care. These are their beliefs as a company. Sara and Evelyn talk what, why, and how on individual genetic mental healthcare.

It got her though a lot - and was the first mental health medication she found really "worked" for her.  After a lot of thought, side effects, and conversations with her doctor - Laurie decided to try and taper of of the medication slowly. 

Our Patreon supporters will remember this time well as Laurie shared a series of bonus episodes throughout the taper and subsequent withdrawal. Without going into as much detail as the patreon diary style episodes, Laurie wanted to chat with someone who knew the science of medications better than she did. 

In this episode, Carly (from our The Borderline Doctor) episode shares some insights with Laurie about how Seroquel works, why she was likely experiencing some withdrawal symptoms, and how we can better our sleep with or without sleep-aids. 


Carly (@daturadxm) is a life coach and works in the alternative healthcare space. Into her work, she brings the medical education she received in school before she was dismissed from her program after taking a mental health leave. She is now fighting back against the stigma against borderline personality disorder in education which forced her out of medical school.

While we say it many times during the episode - CARLY IS NOT A DOCTOR and THIS EPISODE IS NOT MEDICAL ADVISE.  This is simply a conversation between two people who have taken this medication, one who has a much better understanding of how it works from a scientific perspective than the other. ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR HEALTH CARE PROVIDER WHEN CHANGING MEDICATIONS.

When Laurie refers to traditional medicine she means thinks like Indigenous, plant medicine and traditional Chinese medicine for example. Whereas when Carly discusses traditional medicine she means western medicine that we are all familiar with. Sorry for the confusion on that front!

We talk about how it helps us cope and how it may not help us cope. JJ offered tons of insight as a person with BPD who relates heavily to the FP symptom as well as offers beautiful direct quotes from people who have had FPs and people who have been FPs.

I want to note that this research discusses how having a FP can be very destructive and this may be triggering to some of us with BPD. I also want to note that, even when it's hard, understanding our symptoms and their positive AND negative effects helps us grow and find recovery from our symptoms.

Here's the deal - we are reviewing this book from a critical lens, but we only have so much ability to be critical as we're reading it from the perspective of someone having BPD and the partner of someone with BPD. These are our opinions and we hope to teach others how stigmatizing language damages us and the people who love those of us with BPD. We also point out some of the benefits of this book. This mini-series is NOT a shit on this book, nor is it a recommendation of this book. It is simply a critical review of a book that most people who have a BPD family member, partner, loved one, or friend has been recommended.

This week Dad Dean joins us to review the tenth chapter of this book. 

We are reviewing this book as consistent with Copyright Fair Use law:
1. We are not reading it in its entirety 
2. We have purchased the book we are reading from
3. We are using it for educational purposes
4. We are using it for non-commercial purposes

]]> This one wasn't great ya'll - I don't have much to say about it other than holy triggering (this is Sara speaking). Because of that this episode is entirely unedited - I didn't want to go back and re-listen. I do think it's an important listen, especially for people without BPD, but please note it was difficult and triggering for me.

Every Wednesday you will get a bonus episode until we've read EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER of the book Stop Walking on Eggshells that was republished as a 2nd edition in 2010.

Here's the deal - we are reviewing this book from a critical lens, but we only have so much ability to be critical as we're reading it from the perspective of someone having BPD and the partner of someone with BPD. These are our opinions and we hope to teach others how stigmatizing language damages us and the people who love those of us with BPD. We also point out some of the benefits of this book. This mini-series is NOT a shit on this book, nor is it a recommendation of this book. It is simply a critical review of a book that most people who have a BPD family member, partner, loved one, or friend has been recommended.

This week we are reviewing the sixth chapter of this book. PLUS Laurie and Aaron go on a little impulsive adventure mid recording.... it was delish

These are our opinions and we hope to teach others how stigmatizing language damages us and the people who love those of us with BPD. We also point out some of the benefits of this book. This mini-series is NOT a shit on this book, nor is it a recommendation of this book. It is simply a critical review of a book that most people who have a BPD family member, partner, loved one, or friend has been recommended.

This week we are reviewing the first chapter of this book. Each week we will review one full chapter until the book is complete. Enjoy!

Lynn from Sashbear) From tragedy to supporting others (feat. Lynn from Sashbear) On June 17th 2011, Sasha Courey lost her battle to Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and died by suicide at the age of 20. Sasha was a scholarship athlete and a gifted student with a promising future. The pain associated with the BPD was too great and the system failed to support her needs.  Sasha struggled to understand why the treatment that was “air to breathe” was so expensive and difficult to locate. 

Sasha's family created the Sashbear Foundation in her legacy, and have been changing lives through advocacy and skills training ever since Sasha's tragic passing. 

In this episode Sara and Laurie chat with Sasha's mom Lynn (Sashbear's Founder and President) about founding the Sashbear Foundation, how they support families, and her perspective of Sasha's story. 

Particularly moving is Lynn's reflections on how she would have done things differently with the skills she has been able to learn in the last decade.

Candice) Mental Illness or a Natural Response to Capitalism and Oppression? (feat. Candice) Candice Alaska (IG: @understandingbpd and @candicealaska) joins the podcast for a second week to discuss how oppression and capitalism affect our mental wellness. Candice and Laurie also discuss the impacts of ableism, racism, sexism and colonialism on mental health. This episode includes a short discussion about the upcoming new Medical Assistance in Dying laws in Canada.

Also a note directly from Candice for the listeners: I  want folks to know that while we can and should use this diagnosis as a portal to investigating what needs to change in our society so that this type of suffering doesn't keep repeating, I don't mean that there's anything wrong with any individuals bearing this diagnosis, nor that all mental health differences and neurodivergences are always an indication that there's something 'wrong' with our society that needs to change. If it's possible to add that to the show notes, that would be great!

Round 2 feat Lucia & Talon Tattoos and Piercings as Self-Harm? Round 2 feat Lucia & Talon Last year we recorded an episode based on an email that Sara received from a loved one of someone with BPD. Today we're giving some additional thoughts from Lucia, someone with BPD and body modifications, and Talon, who was a professional piercer for many years.

PREVIOUS EPISODE CONTEXT: In this episode of the podcast, Laurie and Sara explore the idea of body modifications and BPD after a DM that a parent of an adult with BPD sent Sara stating the following:

"Hi Sara! So cool to see how life is evolving for you! As a mom I am having some trouble with radically accepting my 24!yr. old kid’s fourth (not small) tattoo. I remind myself that it’s not my journey /nor my body/ and yet it's hard to shake the feeling that some of this is a form of distraction for dysregulated or at least high anxiety.. again not my pain either. As a mom I am pained by the feeling that there will be regret with healing and recovery. I know you have surface embellishments as well and can see how these don’t impede your happiness. I hope for this for my loved one."

Dr. Uyeda) Creating a More Compassionate System from Within (feat. Dr. Uyeda) Dr. Linda Uyeda shares how she is working to make the health care system a more caring and compassionate place. She has been doing amazing work around British Columbia to educate health care providers about adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), attachment theory, and the importance of including people with lived experience! Her and Laurie have worked together for years to share both the provider and patient side of what accessing mental health care does and should look like. 

This week's guest is Dr. Linda Uyeda who obtained her medical degree and completed her family practice residency training at the University of British Columbia. She works at a Psychiatric Hospital in British Columbia, Canada. Her personal journey into the science of true healing began after her medical studies were over. 18 years ago, with the birth of her first child, she became interested in human development. Like many new parents, she felt confused about advice she was receiving from family and friends and turned to the scientific community for answers. She expanded her medical education to explore neuroscience, parenting, trauma, and attachment and was fascinated by what she found. An unexpected incident at work in 2015 combined with a family illness over the next several years, drove home the fact that nurturing resilience and compassion are key to wellbeing. After incorporating this information into her own parenting approach and her medical practice with great success, she has begun educating others about what she has learned.

Aaron and Laurie discuss the testimony about BPD and how the language used is further stigmatizing to our disorder.

This discussion is not meant to take sides, or discuss who did or didn't do what. It is meant to discuss how BPD was used and portrayed only.

]]> Hi ya'll

Some of you SuperFeelers might know that Sara's been undergoing extensive psychological testing from a Ph.D. Psychologist to either confirm or deny the working diagnosis of ADD. Today Laurie and Sara discuss the testing process, how tiring it is, and how their friendship is easier when Sara remains medicated for ADD. Give it a listen!

First off, this is a tough episode. We talk about suicidal thinking as a ruminating thought and how it operates from the perspective of being tired and burnout. We want to be clear: we are NOT suicidal. We are simply getting very real about this disorder. This disorder sometimes sucks. The world sometimes sucks. We know there's good in it. We know this community is good and we are SO grateful for ya'll.

Please listen with caution and self-compassion. Please know that we see you in your struggle and we are grateful for you seeing us in ours.

Be well.

"I am having an extremely hard time explaining to my family members how hard BPD is to live with on a daily basis. I would love an episode on how to explain how it feels on the inside to be us. They all think I’m using BPD as an excuse for my emotions, but my emotions are so elevated because I have BPD. I feel like my family does not want to understand me and it hurts so bad. "

This is such a COMMON feeling we hear from our friends with BPD so we decided to offer a bit of our insight about what it really feels like. Drug references, school report card season, all of the above... ENJOY!

This episode is a continuation of the story from the previous episode where we explored one person with BPD’s experience from police intervention, hospitalization, and inappropriate “treatment” in care. Learnings from Linda’s story is that hospitalization is the great equalizer and that power dynamics are more powerful than sometimes we give them credit for.

]]> Trigger warning: police, suicidality, inappropriate inpatient treatment 


This episode is a continuation of the story from the previous episode where we explored one person with BPD’s experience from police intervention, hospitalization, and inappropriate “treatment” in care. Learnings from Linda’s story is that hospitalization is the great equalizer and that power dynamics are more powerful than sometimes we give them credit for. Linda shares her techniques for surviving the horrors she experienced in the system by humanizing the people around her and finding connection wherever she could.

Please listen with self love and take good care of yourself. 

We have debated not publishing this episode many times as it is less about recovery and more about currently living with mental illness and actively struggling. It was the hardest episode we have ever recorded. That said, in some ways we hope that this episode offers a glimpse into the reality of really tough conversations, boundary setting, and the deep shame and struggles that can come from mental illnesses like eating disorders. 

In this episode you will hear a lot of dysregulation, resistance, and resentment. Please know that Laurie and Sara are good - this is the reality of being in close friendships with BPD. We still love each other very much and have discussed how difficult this was for both of us at great lengths since recording.

That is not the goal of medication.

There is no “anti-borderline pill” but medications can be really useful for treating symptoms associated with BPD like anxiety, depression, anger, racing thoughts, insomnia, etc. Combined with a healthy lifestyle, psychological treatment like counselling, and a lot of personal effort, medications can work wonders. At the end of the day the medication is really just taking the edge off so you CAN practice your skills .

You know your body better than your doctor, so stand up for yourself and make sure that you are continuing to find medications that actually work for you. Knowing what your goal is for the medication can really help you and your doctor find the right option for you. 

At the end of the day, let yourself feel joy - if your dopamine and serotonin are not working for you we shouldn’t feel shame for trying to fix that with science.

Laurie and Sara discuss their experiences with only feeling loveable because you are loved by someone else, wedding dress shopping, the power of lipstick and how no number in the world will make you happy.


While unstable self-image is often associated with eating disorders this episode only touches the surface of disordered eating as an entire episode will be dedicated to this topic in the future.

Slhalhyiót Indigenous Culture and Learning to Live Authentically feat. Slhalhyiót Guest to the podcast Slhalhyiót (Helena Paul) shares the experiences that led to her developing BPD (childhood trauma, sexual assault, colonization, loss of traditional language, and many other factors). As an Indigenous woman she knows all too well the impacts of colonization, assimilation and genocide and the intergenerational traumas that have led to many mental health challenges that many people develop just to survive.

Her healing journey is ongoing, especially as she was just diagnosed with BPD a few years ago. She has found that connection to her Indigenous culture, the land of her ancestors, and learning the traditional language of her people have been key to recovery and survival.

If you are looking for a better description of dissociation than Laurie and Sara can provide we recommend listening to this episode as it is a symptom that Helena experiences regularly.

Helena believes that being properly diagnosed with BPD is a “gift” and that she can now embrace the insanity and life her authentic life.
