BPD Insight and Awareness App

The BPD Insight and Awareness App is your ultimate guide to understanding borderline personality disorder. This comprehensive app is an abundant source of valuable information and resources for people living with BPD or someone who loves and supports a person with BPD. It covers everything from detailed explanations of the nine clinical symptoms of BPD to the long history of the disorder, beginning in 1938 when Adolf Stern coined the term "borderline" to 2008 when May was declared National Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness Month by the U.S. House of Representatives.

The BPD Insight and Awareness App gives you access to the most popular BPD Podcasts and Blogs, as well as links to the most reputable sources of information on BPD such as NEABPD, NIMH, NAMI, and more. It also offers multimedia presentations, video interviews, inspiring music, BPD quotes, and a DBT therapist finder.

In addition, the app includes two popular tests used in diagnosing BPD including the the well regarded MSI-BPD also known as The McClean Assessment Instrument for BPD.

Borderline personality disorder affects approximately 16 million individuals in the United States or nearly 6% of the adult population. Despite being acknowledged as one of the most distressing and emotionally agonizing mental health disorders, BPD faces substantial stigma and misconceptions, resulting in a widespread lack of understanding about this condition.

For many years it was believed that borderline personality disorder only affected young women. We now know that both men and women of all ages are affected by BPD in nearly identical numbers

Another important goal of the App is to help bring about increased awareness of this often misunderstood and stigmatized disorder.

The app will present information sensitively and thoughtfully with an emphasis on understanding, coping, healing, and recovering.
