Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) Therapy in Toronto
Does your mood shift so quickly that you sometimes don’t even realize it’s happening? You’ve been living with this for so long that it might feel like just another part of your day-to-day existence.
Are you caught in a never-ending love/hate relationship with yourself and others? The push-and-pull of intense emotions can be exhausting and isolating.
Do you experience intense highs and crushing lows multiple times a day? The constant switch between euphoria and torment can make it feel like you’re living on a rollercoaster you can’t escape.

What is Borderline Personality Disorder?
Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can be overwhelming and confusing. The intense emotional ups and downs, difficulty maintaining relationships, and constant fear of abandonment can make everyday life feel like an exhausting struggle.
If you find yourself feeling empty, misunderstood, or out of control, it’s important to know that you’re not alone. People with BPD have difficulty navigating these challenges, but with the right type of therapy, it’s possible to manage your symptoms and lead a more stable lifestyle.
Signs and Symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder
- Intense mood swings: Your emotions can shift rapidly, leaving you feeling euphoric one moment and devastated the next.
- Fear of abandonment: You might go to extreme lengths to avoid real or imagined separation from loved ones.
- Unstable relationships: Relationships can feel like a constant push-and-pull, with intense love turning to anger or resentment.
- Impulsive behaviors: Engaging in risky behaviors such as self-harm, substance abuse, or reckless spending can be a way of coping with emotional pain.
- Chronic feelings of emptiness: You might struggle with a persistent sense of emptiness or dissatisfaction with life.
- Intense anger or difficulty controlling anger: You may experience sudden outbursts of anger, often followed by feelings of guilt or shame.
