In the final symptom specific episode about borderline personality disorder (BPD), Laurie and Sara discuss unstable self image. This can look like seeing totally different things in the mirror every time you look, impostor syndrome, or not knowing who you want to be from day to day.
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.
