Are your current coping mechanisms actually helping you, or making things worse? Dr. Fox discusses the difference between healthy vs unhealthy coping skills, helping you recognize unhealthy coping patterns. Reflect on your current coping patterns and consider how to improve your mental health.
Not all coping strategies are created equal—especially when you live with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). In this video, Dr. Daniel Fox walks you through the three most destructive BPD coping mechanisms—impulsive spending, emotional numbing, and splitting—and shows you how to replace them with adaptive strategies like structured journaling, opposite action, and co-regulation. If you're ready to stop spinning in shame and start building insight and control, this video is your next step.
