Tr ying to explain it to someone who has never experienced it can be quit e a daunting task. My psychiatrist describes borderline personality di sorder as having an \"emotional sunburn.\" Imagine touching the skin o f a person without a sunburn as opposed to touching the skin of someon e with a horrible, blistering burn. While the person without a sunburn will be fine, the one with a sunburn will be in excruciating pain. Ha ving BPD is like always having a bad sunburn but instead of covering m y skin, it covers my emotions, making it so every negative thing I fee l is magnified.\" - Jennifer O'Brien, Psych Central (2016)\n\nWhy shou ld you Attend: As the number of students with personality disorders co ntinues to increase on our college campuses, administrators, faculty a nd staff are hard pressed to respond effectively to their special need s.
